Travelling to Indonesia? Since September 1, 2025, the All Indonesia website has become the official integrated platform of the Directorate General of Immigration of Indonesia. This governmental portal streamlines entry procedures by combining three essential requirements (Arrival Card, Health Declaration & Customs Declaration) into a single, straightforward online process, the arrival card service. Read this blog to get to know more about the All Indonesia arrival card and the difference with the Visa on Arrival!
This means you no longer need to fill out separate paper forms upon arrival; everything is completed online in advance. You also no longer need to visit different websites for individual applications, as all requirements can now be completed on the same All Indonesia platform, providing a smoother experience at the airport or seaport. Complete your Arrival Card online before traveling. Required for all incoming passengers to Indonesia, meaning that Indonesian Citizens and Foreign Visitors have to get an Arrival Card. When lost, you can also retrieve your arrival card through the website.
Before you begin your journey, it’s important to understand how to complete the All Indonesia Arrival Card correctly. The process is straightforward, but since it covers immigration, customs, and health protocols, you’ll need to provide accurate entry data through the official governmental portal. Below is a simple step-by-step guide to help travelers, whether visiting for the latest situation in Bali, returning to Bali, or applying for an Indonesian visa, complete the form without confusion.
Go to the official https://allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id/ website. Then, under Arrival Card Service, choose either Indonesian Citizen or Foreign Visitor.
Enter passport details manually or use the MRZ scanner for accuracy. Make sure the same passport is used for all other immigration services.
Provide your arrival and departure dates, visa information, and travel purpose.
Select how you’re entering Indonesia (air, sea, or land), your arrival point, and your local address.
Declare any recent symptoms and list countries visited within the past 21 days, as required by Indonesian health protocols.
State whether you’re bringing animals, plants, or restricted goods, declare your baggage count, and provide information on electronic devices for IMEI registration if necessary.
After reviewing your details, submit the application to receive an Arrival QR Code. This is your proof of completion and will be scanned by Indonesian authorities upon arrival.
Even though their names can sound similar, the All Indonesia Arrival Card and the Visa on Arrival are two completely different requirements.
The All Indonesia Arrival Card is a (free) digital declaration form that every traveler must complete online within 72 hours before arriving in Indonesia. It collects immigration, customs, and health information and gives you a QR code to show on arrival. It does not grant entry; it’s simply a required form.
The Visa on Arrival is a paid entry permit for visitors from certain countries. Eligible travelers can obtain it at the airport or online, paying about 500.000 rupiah for a stay of up to 30 days, extendable once.
In short, the arrival card is a mandatory online form for everyone, while the Visa on Arrival is a paid visa needed only by travelers who aren’t visa-exempt.
