The approximate charge for a 3 day visa is US$10 and 30 day visa is US$25.

3. Pre-arranged Visa

Citizens from countries not mentioned above must apply for a visa prior to arriving in Indonesia.

Tourists from any country wishing to stay in Indonesia for over 30 days must apply for a visa prior to arrival in Indonesia.

 

Anyone wishing to stay longer than 30 days must apply for a visa overseas at an Indonesian embassy or consulate before travelling. Those who overstay their 30-day visas by a few days (less than a week) are charged US$20 per extra day by immigration at the port of their departure. This does not apply if flights are delayed or experience technical difficulties.

Your passport must be valid for six months from the date of entry into Indonesia, and you must also have proof of onward passage out of Indonesia (either return or through tickets).

Tourist visas cannot be extended or converted into another type of visa. You must leave the country and come back in again.
