Bali Bound: The Essential Guide to Digital Nomad Visas in Indonesia

Updated: Apr 6, 2023

Despite the delay in the launch of Indonesia's digital nomad visa, remote workers can still stay in the country for up to 180 days by obtaining the Bali B211a visa. Digital nomads looking to experience Bali's wonders while working remotely can benefit from the B211a visa, particularly while awaiting the launch of the digital nomad visa.


Unlike the visa on arrival, which permits a 30-day stay with one extension, the B211a visa allows for an initial 60-day stay, with the option to renew twice for a total of six months. However, keep in mind that the B211a visa is single-entry, and leaving Indonesia will automatically terminate it.


The Bali B211a visa is also essential for visitors from countries that are not eligible for a visa on arrival. Currently, only 80 countries are accepted, and the rest will require an e-visa. There is a short list of nationalities who are not eligible to receive the B211a visa. These countries include Afghanistan, Guinea, Israel, Kamerun, Liberia, Nigeria, North Korea, Somalia, and Sri Lanka.


To secure the B211a visa, visitors must apply for the e-visa before arriving in Bali. It is advisable to do so even before booking accommodations and flights. The B211a visa is suitable for both tourism and business purposes, although the latter is ideal for those seeking business opportunities in Indonesia.

Compliance with the visa requirements is crucial, including a valid passport, proof of full COVID vaccination, and a bank account with a minimum balance of $2,000. Furthermore, visitors must show proof of onward travel from Indonesia.

It's worth noting, however, that staying for more than 183 days in Indonesia will result in tax obligations.
