Do Taiwan passport holders need a visa to visit Indonesia?

Q: Should I get the VOA at the airport or the e-VOA online?

Both work. The e-VOA, applied for online before departure, lets you skip the airport visa counter and is recommended. Apply at least 3 days ahead.

Q: How long can I stay and can I extend?

The VOA/e-VOA grants a 30-day single-entry stay. It can be extended once at an Indonesian immigration office for another 30 days, up to 60 days total.

Q: How much does the visa cost?

IDR 500,000 per person (about USD 35). A one-time extension costs another IDR 500,000.

Q: Do I need to pay anything extra for Bali?

Yes. If you visit Bali, you must pay the separate IDR 150,000 Bali Tourist Levy via the official Love Bali platform, ideally before you arrive.

Q: What payment methods are accepted for the e-VOA?

A valid Mastercard, Visa, or JCB credit card is required to pay the fee online.

Taiwan ordinary passport holders are NOT visa-free for Indonesia. You can get a Visa on Arrival (VOA), or apply for the e-VOA online before departure: IDR 500,000, 30 days, extendable once for another 30 days. Taiwan (ROC) ordinary passport holders are not on Indonesia's visa-exemption list, but Taiwan is eligible for Indonesia's Visa on Arrival (VOA). You can obtain it on arrival at designated airports/seaports/land posts, or, more conveniently, apply for the Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA) online via the official Imigrasi eVisa portal before you fly. The fee is IDR 500,000, granting a 30-day stay (single entry) that can be extended once at an Indonesian immigration office for another 30 days (max 60 days total). Your passport must be valid at least 6 months from arrival. If you are heading to Bali, you must also pay the separate Bali Tourist Levy of IDR 150,000 via the Love Bali platform.
