Easy flight connections and shared regional ties make the archipelago an attractive getaway. Several distinct locations capture the majority of this incoming traffic.<\/p>\n Bali remains the undisputed favourite for visitors arriving from Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. The island offers a unique blend of Hindu culture, expansive beaches, and dense tropical forests. Direct flights land directly at Ngurah Rai International Airport.<\/p>\n The bustling capital serves as the primary gateway for corporate travellers and urban explorers. Jakarta provides massive shopping complexes, historical Dutch colonial sites, and dynamic nightlife. It is also a crucial transit hub for connecting to remote domestic destinations.<\/p>\n Adventurous Vietnamese vacationers frequently hop over to neighbouring Lombok. This island boasts pristine shorelines and the impressive Mount Rinjani volcano. Ferry services and short domestic flights make reaching Lombok from Bali extremely straightforward.<\/p>\n Crossing the Indonesian border requires a few specific preparations. Immigration officers enforce these regulations strictly at all international checkpoints. Failure to present the right paperwork will result in denied entry.<\/p>\n Your Vietnamese passport must have a minimum of 6 months validity from your arrival date. The booklet must contain at least ONE blank page for the entry stamp. You must also show a confirmed return or onward flight ticket departing within your permitted stay period. Those applying for C or D category visas must present a bank statement showing a minimum USD 2,000 balance in the last 3 months.<\/p>\n Every incoming passenger must complete a digital customs declaration. You must submit the All Indonesia Arrival Card<\/a> within 3 days before your arrival. This digital system officially replaced all physical paper cards in October 2025. Completing this form generates a QR code that you scan at the baggage claim exit.<\/p>\n Visitors flying into or taking a ferry to Bali must pay a mandatory regional tax. The Bali Tourist Levy<\/strong><\/b> costs exactly IDR 150,000 (~USD 10) per person. Payment must be settled online via the official Love Bali portal<\/a>. You will receive a digital voucher to present upon request at the airport or tourist sites.<\/p>\n If your travel plans exceed the 30-day visa-free limit, the B1 e-VOA provides a flexible alternative. This single entry visa grants an initial 30 days stay and is extendable once for an additional 30 days. The maximum total stay allowed on this permit is 60 days. You must secure this document before boarding your flight from Vietnam.<\/p>\n For more detailed insights on navigating the system, consult an Indonesia eVisa guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n |
