Our guide to the Indonesia visa from Portugal
Portuguese travellers need a visa for Indonesia. In practice it is obtained online as an e-Visa before departure, and a visa on arrival is also offered at some entry points.
A Portuguese passport holder planning a trip to Bali, Jakarta or anywhere else in Indonesia cannot enter without prior authorisation. From Portugal the simplest route is the e-Visa, requested and paid for on Indonesia's official immigration portal before flying. The passport must stay valid for at least six months from the date of arrival.
Do you need a visa?
Portugal is not on Indonesia's visa-exempt list, so a Portuguese citizen needs a valid visa for both tourism and short business stays. The recommended format is the electronic e-Visa, secured before boarding; a visa on arrival is still available at some airports and seaports, but the e-Visa avoids queues and the risk of being denied boarding.
How much does a visa for Indonesia cost from Portugal?
500,000 IDR
Official government fee only. Providers and visa centres add their own service charge on top.
Indonesia e-Visa, applied for online before departure: 1,000,000 IDR.

Documents and fees
Have ready a Portuguese passport valid for at least six months, a compliant passport photo, an address for your stay in Indonesia and, in most cases, an onward or return ticket. The exact fee and period of validity depend on the visa category and are not fixed here, check the official price shown on the portal when you apply.
How to apply for a visa for Indonesia from Portugal

Another route is open to your nationality: Indonesia e-Visa, applied for online before departure.
How and where to apply
The application is entirely online and can be completed from Lisbon, Porto or anywhere in Portugal at the official portal evisa.imigrasi.go.id. You create an account, fill in the form, upload the required documents and pay the fee by card. No visit to the Indonesian embassy is needed for this short-stay visa: the approval is sent by email.
Where do you apply for a visa for Indonesia from Portugal?
A visa on arrival for Indonesia is issued at the border post itself, at a counter placed before immigration control.
- Not every crossing issues it. Confirm that your specific airport or land border does before you book.
- The counter is reached after landing and before immigration. Follow the visa signs rather than the exit.
- The fee is usually paid on the spot, sometimes in cash and in a specific currency. Card is not guaranteed.
Using an online service
You never have to use an intermediary. If you would rather have a service fill in and file the application online for you before departure, iVisa does it for a service fee, charged on top of the official fees. It does not change the decision.

You live in Portugal on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Portugal but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

How long does a visa for Indonesia take?
A visa on arrival is issued at the counter of the entry point when you cross the border: there is no processing time to plan for before departure.
Through the online application (Indonesia e-Visa): 4-5 business days.
Processing and tips
Processing time varies with the category and current demand, so file several days ahead rather than at the last minute. Keep the e-Visa printed or on your phone, make sure the name and passport number match your passport exactly, and keep the payment receipt.
Before you fly, and at the border
Passport validity, border checks, minors, overstays: the rules common to every trip are gathered on our travel tips page. Formalities before you leave
Common mistakes
The most common mistakes among Portuguese travellers: a passport too close to expiry, a typo in the passport number, no proof of accommodation or return ticket, and confusing the tourist e-Visa with the visa on arrival. Using a paid intermediary website instead of the official portal is another needless extra cost.

Tips for extending your stay in Indonesia
- Request your visa extension at least a few days before the initial expiration to avoid issues.
- Prepare all necessary documents: valid passport, application form, proof of funds, and exit ticket.
- Use official online services to save time and avoid queues upon arrival.
- Fill out the SATUSEHAT health declaration before travel to meet current health requirements.
A Portuguese traveler arriving in Bali can request a Visa on Arrival, pay 35 USD, and then, before the 30 days end, go to the local immigration office for a 30-day extension by providing the required documents and undergoing biometric collection.
