Clear answers on timelines, documents, costs and the rules that matter most when extending or renewing a Bali visa in 2026.
We have guided travellers through Indonesian immigration since 2014, so we know exactly where the confusion usually starts. Below are honest, up-to-date answers grouped by topic. If your situation is not covered, send us a quick message and we will reply within two working hours.
Everything below reflects current 2026 practice. Rules can change at short notice, so we always confirm the exact figures and steps for your case before you commit.
Most tourist visa extensions are completed in roughly 7–14 working days from the date the application is lodged. We recommend starting at least two weeks before your current stay expires so there is comfortable margin around the biometrics appointment and final approval.
Yes. In 2026 most tourist extensions require one in-person visit for biometrics — a photo and fingerprints at the immigration office. It is a short appointment, and we tell you exactly which office, what to bring and when to attend so it is over quickly.
Once your file is complete, our licensed partner lodges it and tracks it through each stage: registration, the biometrics appointment, review and approval. We keep you updated at every step rather than leaving you to chase the office yourself.
As a rule, begin around two weeks before your permitted stay ends. Starting early protects you against appointment backlogs and public holidays, and it removes any risk of slipping into overstay while the file is still being processed.
At minimum a passport valid for at least six months with blank pages, the visa or entry stamp you are extending, and a recent passport-style photo. Depending on the visa type we may also need a sponsor letter, return ticket or proof of funds — we send you a tailored checklist before anything is submitted.
Yes. Your passport should be valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay, and it must have blank pages available. If your passport is close to expiry we will flag it early so you can renew before it becomes a problem.
In most cases, yes. Some applications require a certified Indonesian translation of supporting documents. If that applies to you we will tell you in advance and can arrange the translation as part of the service.
Your total is made up of two parts: the official government fee and our agency service fee. The official Visa on Arrival fee, for example, is IDR 500,000. Our service fee covers eligibility checks, document preparation, licensed filing and tracking. We always give you one clear all-in figure before you commit — no surprises at the counter.
The official government Visa on Arrival fee is IDR 500,000. A one-time extension of the Visa on Arrival is available, and our service fee is charged separately and transparently on top of that government cost.
We confirm the all-in quote first, then explain the payment steps clearly. Government fees are paid to the relevant official channel, and our service fee is paid to us. We never blur the two together, so you always know what goes where.
Overstaying carries a fine of IDR 1,000,000 per day (roughly USD 65), counted from the first day past your permitted stay. Longer overstays can lead to more serious consequences. If you are already over, contact us immediately — resolving it quickly and correctly is far cheaper than letting it accumulate.
No. Visa-free entries are non-extendable. If you entered Indonesia visa-free and want to stay longer, you cannot extend that status — you would need to leave and re-enter on a different visa, or arrange the correct visa in advance. We can advise on the cleanest legal route for your dates.
Generally no — leaving Indonesia while an extension is in progress usually cancels it. If you have travel planned during your stay, tell us up front so we can time everything around it or recommend a more suitable visa.
Indonesian immigration rules are detailed and change often. A small error on a form or a missed appointment can mean rejection, delay or even an overstay fine. We prepare your file correctly the first time and lodge it through a licensed partner — we maintain a 96% first-submission approval rate, which spares you repeat trips and lost time.
We reply to enquiries within two working hours during business days. Once your case is active you have a dedicated point of contact who keeps you informed at each stage rather than leaving you guessing.
Yes. We are part of the Juara Holding Group and have operated since 2014. Applications are filed through a licensed Indonesian immigration partner, so your case is handled by qualified professionals working entirely within the official system.
