China to Indonesia visa requirements

Chinese ordinary passport holders are eligible for Indonesia Visa on Arrival or e-VOA. It costs IDR 500,000, allows 30 days, and can be extended once for another 30 days. Chinese ordinary passport holders are not visa-free for Indonesia, but China is on Indonesia Immigration's Visa on Arrival subject list. The standard B1 Visa on Arrival / e-VOA is single-entry, costs IDR 500,000, permits an initial 30-day stay, and can be extended once for a maximum 60-day total stay. The e-VOA must be used within 90 days of issue and is recommended to reduce airport queueing; a non-electronic VOA is still available at eligible entry points. Travellers must also complete the All Indonesia declaration within 3 days before arrival. Foreign tourists visiting Bali must pay the separate IDR 150,000 Bali Tourism Levy.
