There is no single “Bali visa” — Bali uses the same Indonesian visas as the rest of the country, and each one carries a different maximum duration. Choosing the right one at the start is what determines whether you can stay 30 days, 60 days, or a full 180.
This guide walks through every tourist route in plain language. When you are ready, we will confirm which one fits your nationality and plan, and handle the application end to end.
Travellers from certain countries, primarily ASEAN states, can enter visa-free for exactly 30 days. It is the simplest option but also the most rigid: the 30 days cannot be extended under any circumstances. If you might want to stay longer, choose a VoA instead from the outset.
The Visa on Arrival, available at the airport or online as an e-VoA, grants 30 days and can be extended once for a further 30 — a total of 60 days. The e-VoA fee is IDR 500,000, and the extension is the same again. The extension requires a short immigration-office visit for biometrics, which we arrange for you.
For genuinely long stays, the C1 is the primary tourist route. It begins at 60 days and can be extended twice, each adding 60 days, for a maximum of 180. A sponsor is usually required; our licensed partner can act as your guarantor and provide the invitation letter.
Durations reflect 2026 rules. Eligibility and official fees vary by nationality; we confirm your exact figures before applying.
The questions travellers ask most about how long they can stay.
Up to 180 days, using the Single-Entry Visit Visa C1 with its two extensions. Beyond that you would move to a longer-stay permit such as a KITAS.
No. The Visa Exemption (30 days) cannot be extended. The VoA can be extended once; the C1 can be extended twice.
Your stay is counted from your date of entry. Day one is your arrival day, so plan extensions a week or two before expiry.
Overstaying carries a fine of IDR 1,000,000 per day and risks deportation and a re-entry ban. Always act before your expiry date — we can help.
