If you’re a Dutch citizen dreaming of tropical beaches, rich culture, and affordable living, Bali is a perfect destination. But before you pack your bags, it’s important to understand your visa options to ensure a smooth entry and stay in Indonesia.
Visa-Free Entry (Tourist Purposes)
Dutch passport holders can enter Indonesia visa-free for up to 30 days for tourism only. This cannot be extended, and you must leave the country before the 30-day period ends.
Visa on Arrival (VOA)
For more flexibility, Dutch travellers can opt for the Visa on Arrival, which also allows entry for tourism, business meetings, or social visits. The VOA is valid for 30 days and can be extended once for another 30 days — giving you a total of 60 days in Bali. You can obtain the VOA at the airport or online via the official immigration site before you arrive.
Longer Stay Options
If you’re planning to stay longer or live in Bali, there are several visa options available:
- Social-Cultural Visa (211A): Ideal for visiting friends, family, or cultural exchange, valid for 60 days and extendable up to 180 days.
- KITAS (Temporary Stay Permit): Suitable for working, retirement, or digital nomads. This visa requires sponsorship and proper documentation.
- Second Home Visa: For those looking to invest or retire in Bali with financial capability.
