Vietnam to Indonesia visa requirements

Visa-free up to 30 days under Indonesia's A1 exemption. Complete All Indonesia before arrival; Bali levy applies for Bali visits. Vietnamese ordinary passport holders are listed for Indonesia's A1 visa-exemption facility and may enter Indonesia visa-free for one stay of up to 30 days. The exemption covers tourism, family visits, meetings/incentives/conventions/exhibitions or similar events, and transit. The A1 stay is free, single-entry for that visit, and cannot be extended or converted to another stay permit. Travellers who may need longer should instead use the B1 Visa on Arrival/e-VOA route, which costs IDR 500,000 for 30 days and can be extended once to a maximum 60 days. Passports must be valid for at least 6 months on arrival, and travellers should show a return or onward ticket. International arrivals must complete the free All Indonesia declaration through allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id or the official app from 3 days before arrival. Foreign tourists visiting Bali must also pay the Bali Tourism Levy of IDR 150,000. Work, study, journalism, selling goods or services, or paid activity in Indonesia requires the appropriate Indonesian visa or permit.
