Do I need a visa for Indonesia from Burkina Faso?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Burkinabè nationals need a visa for Indonesia, to be requested online (e-Visa) before travel.
Burkina Faso is not among the countries exempt from a visa for Indonesia, so prior authorisation is essential. It is obtained on the e-Visa portal of Indonesia's Directorate General of Immigration, with no mandatory embassy step. The passport must be valid for at least six months.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Burkinabè travellers must obtain a visa before entering Indonesia. The recommended route is the tourist e-Visa applied for online; whether a visa on arrival is open to this nationality should be confirmed on the official portal.
How and where to apply
From Burkina Faso, the applicant creates an account on evisa.imigrasi.go.id, completes the form, uploads documents and pays the fee online. The e-Visa received by email is shown at boarding and then at immigration control on arrival in Indonesia.
Documents and fees
Prepare a passport valid for at least six months, a photo, proof of accommodation and, where relevant, a return ticket and evidence of funds. A yellow-fever vaccination certificate may be required for travellers coming from a risk area; the fee and any health requirements are shown on the official portal.
Processing and tips
Processing time is not fixed in advance, so start the procedure well ahead of departure. Carry the international vaccination certificate if yellow-fever proof is requested, and keep the e-Visa accessible throughout the journey.
Common mistakes
Do not assume visa-free entry. Avoid forgetting the yellow-fever certificate when it is required, entering details that differ from the passport, or using unofficial intermediary websites.
