The Indonesia Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA, Visa Index B1) allows citizens of 97 eligible countries (including the UK, US, Australia, Canada, EU states, India, China, Japan, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, and UAE) to obtain their 30-day entry visa online prior to departure. Holding an approved e-VOA linked to a biometric e-passport lets you skip both the airport VOA payment desk and the manual immigration queues by walking straight through the biometric Autogates at Bali Ngurah Rai (DPS) and Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta (CGK).

Yes! One of the biggest advantages of obtaining an electronic e-VOA online (rather than buying a paper VOA sticker at the airport counter) is that an online e-VOA can be extended once for an additional 30 days (up to 60 days total stay) completely online without visiting an Indonesian Kantor Imigrasi office in person.

Pakistan (PAK) is not on the 97-country e-VOA list; only the 10 ASEAN member states (+ Timor-Leste) are visa-free, and 97 countries qualify for e-VOA. Pakistani citizens must apply in advance for an Indonesia C1 (formerly B211A) Single-Entry Tourist e-Visa, which grants a 60-day stay (extendable up to 180 days) and requires a bank statement showing at least $2,000 USD.
