THE LIST of countries subject to a Visit on Arrival Visa or what is known as Visa on Arrival (VoA) Indonesia is now 92 countries. Through Circular Letter Number IMI-0133.GR.01.01 of 2023, it is known that Panama, Guatemala, and Macau are officially added to the list of VoA subject countries.
“Previously, the Directorate General of Immigration added Kenya and Rwanda to the list of countries subject to the Visit-on-Arrival Visa in February 2023,” said the Directorate General of Immigration’s Public Relations Subcoordinator, Achmad Nur Saleh, in his written statement recently.
He explained that the addition of Visa on Arrival subject countries aims to support sustainable tourism and facilitate community economic development.
Visa on Arrival and e-VoA can be used by foreigners to carry out several types of activities. Among them are tourist visits, government duty visits, business talks visits, visits to purchase goods, meeting visits, and transit.
Visa on Arrival is valid for 30 days since the foreigner enters Indonesian territory and can be extended once, but cannot be transferred to another type of residence permit.
“The Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA) can be used to enter Indonesian territory for a maximum of 90 days after the date of issuance. Meanwhile, the calculation of the 30-day validity period begins when the foreigner enters the Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) in Indonesia,” Achmad concluded.
