Essential websites for Bali travelers: eVisa, arrival card, and tourism tax
Bali newsBali4 min read
Travelers to Bali need to be aware of three essential websites for a smooth entry process. The Official Indonesia eVisa website evisa.imigrasi.go.id is the only legitimate platform for applying for an eVisa for Indonesia. It is recommended to apply for the e-VOA at least one week prior to travel, or up to two weeks in advance, though applications can be submitted 48 hours before travel. The site is available in English and offers Live Chat support. Note that the website may display a 403 Error if a VPN or ad-blocker is active, and it is best accessed on a desktop. The All Indonesia website, also available as a smartphone app, is where all incoming passengers to Indonesia must create their digital arrival card. This process should be completed 72 hours prior to travel and involves filling out personal information, travel details, mode of transportation, address, and customs declarations. Live Chat assistance is also available. Finally, the LoveBali website is for paying the mandatory Bali Tourism Tax Levy of IDR 150,000 per person, which applies to all international tourists. Paying this fee a few days before traveling to Bali allows tourists to save a QR-code voucher on their phones, which can be presented if requested by immigration or tourism task force officers.
