Thailand to Indonesia visa requirements

Visa-free up to 30 days under ASEAN reciprocity. All Indonesia arrival declaration required. Thai ordinary passport holders enter Indonesia visa-free for up to 30 days per entry under Indonesia's visit visa exemption list. The exemption covers short visits such as tourism, business meetings, family visits, and transit. The 30-day stay cannot be extended in-country on the visa-free pass — for longer stays travellers can instead take the Visa on Arrival/e-VOA (IDR 500,000) which provides 30 days plus one in-country extension of 30 more days. All international passengers arriving from abroad must complete the free All Indonesia arrival declaration through allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id or the official app from 3 days before arrival; it integrates immigration, customs, health, and quarantine declarations. Thai-Indonesian travel is particularly popular for Bali, Jakarta, and Yogyakarta — foreign tourists visiting Bali pay an additional IDR 150,000 tourism levy. For work, study, journalism, or stays beyond 30 days the corresponding Indonesian visa is required at the embassy in Bangkok.
