    Understanding Indonesia Visas for Georgian Citizens

    Indonesia offers one of Southeast Asia's most flexible visa systems, with Visa on Arrival (VOA) making entry remarkably simple for Georgian passport holders. Unlike many countries requiring pre-application, Georgians can simply arrive at Indonesian airports and obtain their visa within minutes at immigration.

    The VOA Advantage: Upon landing at Bali, Jakarta, or other major Indonesian airports, proceed to the Visa on Arrival counter before immigration. Pay IDR 500,000 (~$32 USD) in cash or card, receive your visa stamp, and you're granted 30 days in Indonesia. If you decide to stay longer, visit a local immigration office to extend for another 30 days (total 60 days). This flexibility is perfect for spontaneous travelers.

    When to Apply in Advance: If you're planning stays longer than 60 days, require multiple extensions, or need business/social visas, apply for an e-Visa (B211A/B211) before travel. These are initially valid for 60 days but can be extended up to 4-6 times, allowing stays of 6 months or more. Digital nomads, long-term travelers, and business professionals typically choose this route.

    Entry Points: VOA is available at 124 designated entry points including all major airports (Bali, Jakarta, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, Lombok, Medan) and seaports. Land border crossings from Timor-Leste and Papua New Guinea also accept VOA. However, entering through non-designated checkpoints without a pre-approved visa results in entry denial.

    Getvisa Support: While VOA is straightforward, we assist with extension processes, e-Visa applications (requiring sponsorship and documentation), work permit coordination, and ensuring you enter through correct checkpoints. For complex cases like business or work visas, proper documentation and sponsorship arrangements are critical—our team handles these efficiently.

    Indonesia Visa Application Process

    Indonesia Visa Application Process

    1

    Obtain VOA at Airport

    Upon arrival, go to "Visa on Arrival" counter before immigration. Fill out brief form, pay IDR 500,000 by cash or card, receive visa stamp. Proceed to immigration for entry stamp. Entire process takes 10-30 minutes depending on queue.

    2

    Choose Your Visa Type

    For short tourist trips (up to 60 days), use Visa on Arrival (VOA). For longer stays (up to 180 days), business, or social purposes, apply for e-Visa (B211A/B211) before travel. Work visas require employer sponsorship and separate process.

    3

    Apply for e-Visa (if applicable)

    If applying for e-Visa, submit application through Indonesian immigration website or authorized visa agent with sponsorship documents. Pay visa fee ($50-150 depending on type). Processing takes 5-10 business days. VOA applicants skip this step.

    4

    Travel to Indonesia

    Fly to Bali, Jakarta, or another designated entry point. Ensure you land at one of the 124 airports/seaports where VOA is available. Have return ticket, accommodation proof, and IDR 500,000 (or ~$35 USD) ready for VOA payment.

    5

    Enter Indonesia & Immigration Clearance

    Present passport with VOA stamp, return ticket, and accommodation details to immigration officer. They may ask about travel plans and length of stay. Answer clearly and honestly. Passport stamped with 30-day stay authorization.

    6

    Extend Visa if Needed

    If you want to stay beyond 30 days (VOA) or 60 days (e-Visa), visit local immigration office (Kantor Imigrasi) at least 7 days before expiry. Bring passport, extension form, fee (IDR 500,000 for VOA extension, varies for e-Visa), and accommodation proof. Processing takes 3-7 days.

    7

    Prepare Required Documents

    Ensure your Georgian passport has 6+ months validity and blank pages. Book return flights and accommodation. For e-Visa, arrange Indonesian sponsor (company or individual) and gather sponsorship letter, passport scan, photo, and itinerary.

    Tips for Getting Indonesia Visa

    Tips for a successful application

    Do's

    Confirm Entry Point Accepts VOA: Not all Indonesian airports/seaports offer VOA. Major hubs like Bali (Ngurah Rai), Jakarta (Soekarno-Hatta), Surabaya, Yogyakarta, and Lombok do, but small regional airports may not. Check the official list before booking flights.
    Carry Extra Passport Photos: While VOA doesn't require photos, extension applications and e-Visas do. Bring 4-6 passport-sized photos (white background) to avoid photo booth searches in Indonesia.
    Have IDR Cash Ready: VOA costs IDR 500,000. While most airports accept USD and cards, having exact Rupiah amount speeds up the process and avoids unfavorable exchange rates at airport counters.
    Print Return Tickets: Immigration officers routinely check proof of onward travel. Digital copies on phone may not suffice. Print your return or onward flight ticket confirmation.
    Start Extension Process Early: Don't wait until the last day. Immigration offices can be busy, and processing takes 3-7 days. Apply at least 7-10 days before your visa expires to avoid overstay.

    Don'ts

    Don't Work on Tourist VOA: VOA and tourist e-Visas strictly prohibit employment, freelancing, or any income-generating activity in Indonesia. Working illegally results in deportation, fines, and ban. Digital nomads working remotely for foreign companies are in grey area—technically not allowed on tourist visas.
    Don't Overstay Your Visa: Overstay fines start at IDR 1,000,000 (~$65) per day and escalate quickly. Overstays also result in detention at immigration jail, deportation at your expense, and multi-year bans from Indonesia. Always extend before expiry or exit on time.
    Don't Assume All Islands Have Immigration Offices: VOA extensions must be done at official immigration offices (Kantor Imigrasi). These exist in major cities but not small islands. If staying on remote islands like Gili, you may need to travel to Lombok to extend.
    Don't Enter Through Non-VOA Checkpoints: If you arrive at an airport/seaport not on the VOA list without pre-approved e-Visa, you'll be denied entry and deported on the next flight. Always verify your entry point accepts VOA.
    Don't Use Agents for Simple VOA: VOA is extremely straightforward—you don't need an agent. However, for e-Visas requiring Indonesian sponsorship or work permits involving complex government processes, professional assistance is valuable.

    💡Key Recommendations

    💡
    Consider E-Visa for Long Stays: If you're planning 60+ days in Indonesia, apply for e-Visa (B211A) before arrival instead of VOA. It's initially 60 days but extendable up to 180 days, saving you from exiting and re-entering. Costs more upfront (~$100) but offers flexibility.
    💡
    Get Comprehensive Travel Insurance: Indonesia has varying medical standards. Serious injuries (surfing, diving, motorbike accidents—common in Bali) may require medical evacuation to Singapore costing $50,000+. Insurance covering medical evacuation is essential.
    💡
    Respect Visa Conditions: Indonesia has strict rules. Don't overstay, don't work illegally, respect local laws (drug penalties are severe—death penalty possible). Following regulations ensures smooth travel and ability to return to Indonesia in future.
    💡
    Use Getvisa for Complex Cases: If you need business visa sponsorship arrangements, work permit coordination, multiple extensions, or have previous overstays/violations to navigate, professional guidance ensures compliance and success. We handle Indonesian bureaucracy efficiently.

    Frequently Asked Questions About Indonesia Visa

    Do Georgian citizens need a visa for Indonesia?

    Yes, but it's very easy. Georgian passport holders are eligible for Visa on Arrival (VOA) at Indonesian airports and seaports. You simply pay IDR 500,000 (~$32 USD) upon landing and receive a 30-day tourist visa stamp. No pre-application needed for VOA.

    How much does Indonesia VOA cost for Georgian citizens?

    VOA costs IDR 500,000 (Indonesian Rupiah), which is approximately $32-35 USD depending on exchange rates. Payment can be made in Rupiah, USD, or other major currencies at the VOA counter. Some airports accept credit/debit cards.

    Can I extend my Indonesia VOA?

    Yes, VOA can be extended once for an additional 30 days (total 60 days maximum). You must apply for extension at an Indonesian immigration office (Kantor Imigrasi) before your initial 30 days expire. Extension costs IDR 500,000 and takes 3-7 days to process. Bring passport, extension form, fee, and accommodation proof.

    Which Indonesian airports accept Visa on Arrival for Georgians?

    VOA is available at 124 designated entry points including all major airports: Bali (Ngurah Rai/Denpasar), Jakarta (Soekarno-Hatta), Surabaya (Juanda), Yogyakarta (Adisucipto), Lombok (Zainuddin Abdul Madjid), Medan (Kualanamu), and many others. Always verify your specific entry point accepts VOA before booking flights.

    How long can I stay in Indonesia with VOA?

    VOA allows 30 days initially. You can extend once for another 30 days, making total possible stay 60 days on VOA. If you need longer stays (up to 180 days), you should apply for e-Visa (B211A) before travel, which can be extended multiple times.

    What happens if I overstay my Indonesia visa?

    Overstaying is serious: IDR 1,000,000 (~$65 USD) fine per day, detention at immigration jail until fine is paid or deportation flight arranged, deportation at your expense, and potential ban from re-entering Indonesia for several years. Always extend before expiry or exit on time.

    Can I work in Indonesia on a tourist VOA?

    No. Tourist VOA and e-Visas strictly prohibit any employment, freelancing, or income-generating activities in Indonesia. Working illegally results in deportation and bans. If you want to work, your employer must sponsor you for a work visa (KITAS) through proper channels—a separate process taking 4-8 weeks.

    What is the difference between VOA and e-Visa for Indonesia?

    VOA is obtained at the airport upon arrival (immediate, 30 days, one extension possible to 60 days total). E-Visa (B211A) is applied online before travel (5-10 days processing, initially 60 days, extendable up to 4 times for 180 days total). E-Visa requires Indonesian sponsor but offers longer stay potential. Choose VOA for short trips, e-Visa for extended stays.

    Do I need travel insurance for Indonesia VOA?

    Travel insurance is not mandatory for obtaining VOA, but it is strongly recommended. Medical emergencies, diving/surfing accidents, and motorbike injuries are common in Indonesia (especially Bali). Serious cases may require medical evacuation to Singapore costing $50,000+. Comprehensive insurance provides essential protection.

    Can I enter Indonesia multiple times on VOA?

    Yes, VOA can be used for multiple trips, but each VOA is single-entry. Once you exit Indonesia, your VOA expires. If you return, you must obtain a new VOA and pay the fee again. For frequent travelers making multiple trips within a year, consider e-Visa options that may offer multiple entries depending on type.
