webfact Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 by Natthaphon Sangpolsit BANGKOK (NNT) - Thailand’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has verified reports that Indonesia has launched special tourism visa services for foreign visitors from 23 countries to enter the archipelago nation. The Department of Information under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recently confirmed the news of the launch of the special visa application service for entering Indonesia. Tourists from 23 countries around the world, including Thailand, can enter Indonesia via a Special Tourism Visa on Arrival (VOA) arrangement. Foreigners can only obtain the VOA if they enter Indonesia at the immigration checkpoint of Gusti Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali. Holders of this visa will, however, be permitted to depart the country via other Indonesian airports.

They must have a passport that is valid for at least six months, a return ticket or a transit ticket to continue traveling to another country, and relevant documentation required by the COVID-19 task force. This includes RT-PCR test results, COVID vaccination certificates, and proof of accommodation/hotel payments. Special visa holders will be allowed to stay in Indonesia for a maximum of 30 days. The visa can be extended once with an additional 30-day extension period.

JayBird Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 Does it require a PCR test AND vaccination, or is just vaccination enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
