For visiting Bali in 2025, the required visa depends on nationality and length of stay:
- Most tourists from over 90 eligible countries can get a Bali Visa on Arrival (VOA) at Ngurah Rai International Airport or apply online before their flight. This visa is valid for 30 days and can be extended once for an additional 30 days, totaling 60 days. The VOA requires a passport valid for at least 6 months, a return or onward flight ticket, and payment of the visa fee (IDR 500,000 plus service fee).
- Nationals from 13 countries listed under Indonesia's Visa Exemption Arrangement do not need a visa for a stay of up to 30 days. This visa exemption is for tourism only and cannot be extended.
- For stays longer than 60 days or for other purposes such as business or social visits, the Single Entry Visa (B211A) or other visa types are available and need to be applied for in advance at an Indonesian embassy or consulate.
- Starting September 1, 2025, all travelers to Bali must complete their arrival declaration using the mandatory All Indonesia mobile app before arrival.
In summary, if visiting Bali for tourism up to 30 or 60 days, a Visa on Arrival or visa exemption (for certain nationalities) is the typical requirement. For longer stays or other purposes, a specific visa application in advance is necessary.
