How much does a visa for Indonesia cost? For most tourists the main government fee is IDR 500,000, but the full bill usually includes a few extras. Indonesia visa cost depends on the visa you choose, how long you stay and whether you use a service. This guide breaks down every fee in plain English, so you can budget before you book. If you want help choosing and applying, see our Indonesia visa assistance page.
What counts as the Indonesia visa cost?
There are three kinds of cost to keep apart.
- Government fees: what the Indonesian authorities charge for the visa or extension.
- Related fees: payments that are not visa fees, such as the Bali tourist levy.
- Service fees: what a private visa service charges for its help, on top of the government fee.
Hey Rick Visa is a private visa assistance service and is not affiliated with the Government of Indonesia. We provide assistance with visa applications and charge a service fee. Government fees are always shown separately from service fees, and fees can change, so confirm the amount on the day you apply.

Visa on arrival and e-VOA cost
The B1 visa on arrival is the most common tourist visa. It gives 30 days, with one extension of 30 days, so 60 days at most. Some listings call it a “B1 tourist visa 60 days” product, but it is not a separate 60-day visa.
Today the government fee is IDR 500,000, whether you buy it at the airport or apply online for an e-VOA. Online payments may add a small card processing charge. You can check the live fee on the official portal at https://evisa.imigrasi.go.id/.
Is a fee rise coming?
In August 2026, Indonesian Immigration announced a plan to charge IDR 750,000 for the e-VOA and IDR 1,000,000 for the visa on arrival. No start date had been confirmed when we checked. If the plan goes ahead, applying online would be cheaper than paying at the airport. Our guide on e-VOA vs visa on arrival explains the other differences.
Longer stays: C1 and E33G costs
If you want more than 60 days, the C1 tourist visa is the usual option. It is a single-entry visa for 60 days that can be extended twice by 60 days each, for up to 180 days. It was formerly known as the B211A and does not allow work. The official immigration page we reviewed lists the C1 government fee at about IDR 1,000,000, which you can see at https://www.imigrasi.go.id/wna/daftar-visa-indonesia/c1. Some websites list higher figures, so confirm the current amount before you pay.
Each extension is charged separately and handled through the official system, so add it to your budget.
If you work remotely for an employer or clients outside Indonesia, the Indonesia remote worker visa (the E33G) may suit you better. It is valid for up to one year and has an income requirement, so confirm the current criteria first. The government fee is in the millions of rupiah, and other permit charges may apply. Holders may not work for Indonesian companies. For tax questions, speak to a qualified adviser.
Extra costs people forget
The visa fee is rarely the whole story. Budget for these as well:
- Bali tourist levy: IDR 150,000 per person, paid online or on arrival.
- Card processing charges: some online payments add a small fee.
- Onward ticket: airlines and officers commonly ask for proof you will leave Indonesia.
- Extension costs: if you stay past 30 days on a visa on arrival.
- Service fees: if you use a private service.
Children also need their own visa, and the fee applies per person, so a family’s total multiplies quickly.
Example budgets
Here are simple examples using the current government fees. They do not include any service fee.
| Trip | Calculation | Government total |
| 30 days in Bali on an e-VOA | IDR 500,000 visa + IDR 150,000 levy | IDR 650,000 per person |
| 60 days in Bali with one extension | IDR 500,000 visa + IDR 500,000 extension + IDR 150,000 levy | IDR 1,150,000 per person |
| Family of four, 30 days in Bali | IDR 650,000 x 4 | IDR 2,600,000 |
If the announced fee change takes effect, update these numbers using the fee shown on the official portal.
Service fees: what are you paying for?
A private service charges a fee on top of the government fee. That fee covers things like reviewing your documents, handling the application and offering support. It is optional for simple trips.
When comparing providers, ask what is included, whether government fees are shown separately, and how support works if something goes wrong. Be cautious of any provider that promises guaranteed approval or hides the government fee. Our guide to choosing an Indonesia visa explains what to look for.
Common mistakes that cost money
- Overstaying. The fine is IDR 1,000,000 for every extra day, and overstays can cause bigger problems.
- Paying on unofficial sites. Use the official portal or a clearly identified private service.
- Forgetting the levy. The Bali tourist levy is separate from your visa fee.
- Applying too late. A last-minute rush can mean paying at the airport if the fee gap grows.
- Choosing the wrong visa. Buying a visa on arrival for a long trip means extension costs and extra visits to immigration.
- Using outdated fees. Old articles often list prices that have changed, so check the date.
Apply yourself or use help?
Applying yourself is the cheapest option when your trip is simple. If you have an eligible passport, a short stay and you are comfortable with online forms, the official portal is enough.
Help can be worth the service fee if you are unsure which visa fits, are applying for several people, or want your documents reviewed before submission.
