Bali Visa Extension: How To Extend Your e-VOA For 30 More Days (2026)

Thirty days in Bali goes faster than anyone expects. If you entered on Indonesia’s visa on arrival (VOA) or electronic visa on arrival (e-VOA) and want to stay longer, you can extend it once for another 30 days, without leaving the country.

This guide explains who can extend, how the online process works, what it costs, and what to do when your 60 days are up.

Can You Extend A Bali Visa On Arrival?

Yes, once. The VOA and e-VOA give you 30 days, and you can extend them a single time for another 30 days, for a maximum of 60 days in total. No further extensions are possible on this visa.

Both the e-VOA bought online and the sticker VOA bought at the airport can be extended through Indonesia’s official immigration portal.

How Much Does It Cost?

The extension costs the same as the original visa, IDR 500,000, according to Indonesian immigration. Card fees may apply. Agents charge more for handling it for you, which is optional.

When To Apply

Start the process at least 14 days before your first 30 days end. Processing typically takes several working days, and you may need to attend an immigration office for biometrics. Leaving it until the last few days risks an overstay.

How To Extend Your e-VOA Online

1. Go to the official portal, evisa.imigrasi.go.id.
2. Choose “Extend My Visa” on the homepage, or log in and find your active stay permit in your account.
3. Enter your passport number, nationality and date of birth, and check your details.
4. Upload any requested documents, such as your passport biodata page.
5. Pay the extension fee online.
6. Attend biometrics if required. Indonesian immigration has said applicants should have their photo taken at the nearest immigration office after paying, and recent reports note that VOA extensions now involve an immigration verification step.
7. Receive your approved extension by email and keep a copy with your passport.

What If You Need More Than 60 Days?

The VOA cannot be extended beyond 60 days. Your options:

• Leave Indonesia and come back on a new VOA. Read our guide to Bali visa runs.
• Apply for a different visa before you arrive, such as the C1 single-entry visit visa, which allows a longer stay with extensions.
• Look at a stay permit, such as the remote worker visa. See our Indonesia digital nomad visa guide and Bali KITAS explained.

Common Mistakes

• Waiting too long. Processing and biometric appointments take time.
• Using lookalike sites. Only evisa.imigrasi.go.id is official.
• Assuming you can extend twice. You cannot. Plan your exit for day 60 at the latest.
• Forgetting your onward ticket. Airlines and immigration may want to see that you will leave within your permitted stay.

Overstaying In Indonesia

Overstaying is expensive and can lead to fines, deportation or a ban. Indonesia charges a daily fine for short overstays. Do not rely on paying a fine as a plan.
