Do Indonesia passport holders need a visa to visit BS?

Indonesian ordinary passport holders need a visa to visit the Bahamas. The Bahamas is a designated visa-required country for Indonesia, but most tourists can apply online through the official Bahamas eVisa system instead of visiting an embassy. Indonesia is on the Bahamas' official list of designated countries whose nationals require a visa to enter, so there is no visa-free or visa-on-arrival channel for Indonesian ordinary passport holders. The good news is that the Bahamas operates an official online eVisa system (mofa.gov.bs), allowing Indonesian travelers to apply for a Visitor's (tourist) visa electronically rather than mailing a passport or visiting a consulate. The single-entry visitor visa costs US$160 and is valid for one entry within three months, permitting a short tourist stay typically up to 90 days as authorized by the immigration officer on arrival. Standard processing takes 7-10 business days; an expedited service (about US$50 extra) can return a decision within 48 hours. Applicants must upload a passport valid at least six months beyond the intended stay, photos, proof of onward/return travel, accommodation details, proof of funds, and supporting documents such as a police record and bank reference. Travelers should carry the approved eVisa confirmation when boarding, as airlines check it before departure. Always confirm the latest fees and requirements on the official Bahamas Ministry of Foreign Affairs eVisa portal before applying, since fee schedules and document lists can change.
