Argentina to Indonesia visa requirements

Argentine ordinary passport holders are NOT visa-free for Indonesia. They qualify for Indonesia's Visa on Arrival (VoA), payable at the airport, or the recommended Electronic Visa on Arrival (eVoA) bought online before travel. The fee is IDR 500,000 for a 30-day single-entry stay, extendable once for another 30 days. As of 2026, Argentina (ordinary passport) appears on Indonesia's list of countries eligible for the Visa on Arrival (VoA / index B1) and its online equivalent, the Electronic Visa on Arrival (eVoA). Indonesia does NOT grant visa-free entry to Argentine citizens for tourism. Travelers either purchase the VoA at the immigration counter on arrival at major international entry points (e.g., Soekarno-Hatta Jakarta, Ngurah Rai Bali) or, preferably, apply for the eVoA online via the official Directorate General of Immigration portal (evisa.imigrasi.go.id) before departure to avoid airport queues. The fee is IDR 500,000 (about USD 35). It grants a 30-day stay, single entry, and can be extended one time for an additional 30 days at a local Immigration Office, for a maximum of 60 days. The VoA/eVoA is strictly for tourism, family visits, transit, and limited business meetings - not for paid work or study. A passport valid at least 6 months on arrival, proof of onward/return travel, and proof of accommodation are required. Older claims that Argentina enjoys visa-free access are outdated or conflate VoA with visa-free; the official Indonesian immigration portal lists Argentina under the paid VoA scheme.
