Want to travel back to Bali? Indonesia has reopened its international borders to foreign tourists, providing they hold a valid visa and show proof of vaccination. No quarantine and tests are required!

Ever since the Coronavirus pandemic forced Indonesia to close its borders in March 2020, and all eyes were on the government to see when (and how) the Bali borders would reopen to international travelers. Starting on Mei 18th, 2022, travelers abroad can enter Indonesia with quarantine-free and no test requirements since the Indonesia Government has updated the health protocols until further notice and Visas On Arrival have been reinstated for certain foreign travelers. Moreover, Visa Exemption Facility applicable to holders of passports from SEA Countries.

There are a few things to note. All foreign arrivals must show proof of complete vaccination (either two doses or a booster), and all international visitors must also hold a valid visa. From scrapping quarantine to reinstating Visa on Arrival for certain nationalities up to 60 nationalities, traveling to Indonesia (and Bali) is getting easier and more accessible by the day. 

Quarantine and testing are no longer required for fully vaccinated travelers (2 or 3 doses). This applies to all international travelers arriving at any port of entry into Indonesia (Bali, Jakarta, or any other international airports and seaports).

Regarding this current policy, Pelindo ensures that Port of Benoa, as one of the International Seaport Gateways, is ready to welcome visitors who travel to this beautiful island.
