A clear walkthrough of exactly what happens when you extend your Bali visa with us — from your first message to the new stamp in your passport.
Extending a Bali visa involves several moving parts: a fresh set of documents, a payment to immigration, a mandatory visit to the local office for biometrics, and a waiting period before the new stamp is issued. Handled out of order, it is easy to overstay or miss a step. This guide lays out the full process the way we run it for clients, so you can see precisely where you fit in and what is taken care of on your behalf.
We start by confirming your visa type and the exact extension you qualify for. You send us a scan of your passport, your current stamp and any supporting paperwork. We review everything for accuracy before anything is lodged, so nothing is rejected on a technicality later.
Our team prepares your extension file and submits it to immigration on your behalf. The official government fee is settled at this stage, and we hold a tracked record of the submission so the status can be followed from the moment it enters the system.
Immigration reviews the application and assigns a date for your in-person appointment. We let you know when and where to attend, and we prepare you for what to bring so the visit is quick and uneventful.
You attend the Kantor Imigrasi for fingerprints and a photo. This step must be done in person — it cannot be delegated. We guide you through the location, timing and the short interview so you walk in and out with confidence.
After biometrics, immigration finalises the extension. Your passport is collected and the new visa stamp is verified before it is returned to you, with the extended dates clearly confirmed.
We confirm the exact list for your visa type before you commit — these are the essentials for most extensions.
With your current Indonesian entry stamp and at least one blank page.
A clear scan of the visa you intend to extend.
Recent, plain background — we confirm the size requirements.
Some extensions require proof of a planned departure; we tell you when this applies.
An Indonesian address and phone number for the application file.
The essentials before you begin the process.
Yes. The biometric step — fingerprints and a photo at the Kantor Imigrasi — must be completed by you in person. It is the one part of the process that cannot be delegated, but we make sure you know exactly when and where to go.
The biometric visit itself is usually brief. With your file already prepared and submitted, most clients are in and out quickly. We brief you beforehand so there are no surprises.
We recommend beginning well before your current stamp expires — ideally a week or more ahead — so there is comfortable room for processing and your appointment without any risk of overstaying.
