Do Türkiye passport holders need a visa to visit Indonesia?

Q: Can the 30-day visa-free stay be extended?

No. The visa-free (BVK) stay cannot be extended or converted to another permit. If you need longer, buy a Visa on Arrival (e-VOA) instead, which can be extended once for 30 more days.

Q: Does this visa-free entry apply to Bali?

Yes. Bali (Ngurah Rai International Airport) is a designated entry point, so visa-free entry applies there as it does at other approved airports and seaports.

Q: What can I do on a visa-free visit?

Tourism, attending business meetings, and medical treatment are all permitted. Paid employment is not allowed.

Q: What documents do I need at immigration?

A Türkiye passport valid 6+ months, a confirmed return/onward ticket, proof of funds, and a completed All Indonesia electronic customs declaration (e-CD).

Q: What happens if I overstay?

Overstaying incurs a penalty of IDR 1,000,000 per day, and longer overstays can lead to detention and deportation.

Türkiye ordinary passport holders can enter Indonesia visa-free for up to 30 days for tourism, business, or medical visits — no visa or fee required. As of 3 July 2025, Indonesia restored visa-free entry (Bebas Visa Kunjungan / BVK) for ordinary passport holders of Türkiye under Minister of Immigration and Corrections Regulation No. 9 of 2025, based on Presidential Regulation No. 95 of 2024. Turkish tourists may enter Indonesia — including Bali — for up to 30 days without any visa or fee. The grant is reciprocal, as Türkiye already offers visa-free access to Indonesian nationals. Important limitations: the 30-day visa-free stay is NOT extendable and cannot be converted into any other residence permit. Travelers needing a longer stay or an extendable option should instead buy a Visa on Arrival (e-VOA), which costs IDR 500,000 and can be extended once for another 30 days. The passport must be valid at least six months beyond arrival, and a confirmed return or onward ticket and proof of funds are required. Entry is permitted through Indonesia's designated international airports, seaports, and land border posts (including Ngurah Rai/Bali, Soekarno-Hatta/Jakarta).
