Can I Extend My Indonesia eVisa in Bali in 2026? Eligibility, Documents & Costs
The e-VoA allows one extension of 30 additional days, giving a maximum total stay of 60 days. You cannot extend beyond 60 days; you must exit Indonesia and apply for a different visa type, such as the B1 single-entry visa (up to 180 days). The e-VoA is available to citizens of 90+ countries including the UK, with no prior immigration violations permitted.
To apply, submit four documents: a clear copy of your passport ID page with at least 6 months remaining validity, a confirmed onward flight ticket (any international destination accepted, not necessarily your home country), a recent passport-sized photograph, and your ITK (e-Stay Permit). Dress code at all Kantor Imigrasi offices: no singlets, sleeveless tops, shorts, or flip-flops. Wear a collared shirt and closed shoes.
According to Indonesian Government Regulation No. 28/2019 on Non-Tax State Revenue (PNBP), the statutory extension fee is IDR 500,000 (~GBP 28) with no additional taxes for self-application. Visa agents charge IDR 300,000 to 1,000,000 on top. Bundled agent prices: IDR 950,000 (regular, up to 14 business days processing time) or IDR 1,300,000 (priority, up to 7 business days). Agent payment is via online link or in-person at their office. The IDR 500,000 extension fee has been stable since 2024; however, PNBP rates are reviewed annually, so always check the latest schedule at the external portal evisa.imigrasi.go.id.
Apply 10 to 14 days before visa expiry to allow for processing time of 3 to 7 working days. Indonesian public holidays (Nyepi, Galungan, Idul Fitri, Independence Day) close all offices and may delay processing; apply 14+ days ahead during holiday periods.

Your passport is retained during the 3 to 7 working days of processing; a receipt is issued to you. During passport retention during processing, you can travel domestically with a clear passport photo; a sponsorship letter from the office confirms retention if requested by authorities.

What Happens If You Overstay Your Indonesia eVisa?
An Indonesia eVisa overstay triggers an immediate penalty fee of IDR 1,000,000 (~GBP 51) per day, charged by immigration or customs at your departure point. Indonesia enforces a zero grace period: the fine accrues from 00:00 on the first day after visa expiry, with no 24-hour or 48-hour leniency window. A single-day overstay costs exactly IDR 1,000,000 at the same daily rate regardless of duration.
Overstay fines at Indonesian airports are payable in cash IDR at the immigration checkpoint before departure; foreign currency or card payments are not guaranteed. The same IDR 1,000,000/day penalty fee applies to minors and infants, with no exemption for children. However, no overstay fee is charged if your Indonesia eVisa extension application was formally accepted and recorded (receipt issued or digital timestamp generated) before the visa expiry date.
Serious Overstay: Blacklisting, Detention & Deportation
An Indonesia eVisa extension cannot be renewed beyond 60 days. Overstaying an Indonesia eVisa past this threshold triggers immediate blacklisting from re-entry to Indonesia.
Overstayers exceeding 60 days face transfer to a Ruang Detensi Imigrasi immigration detention facility prior to formal deportation. The process includes a hearing, a possible multi-year re-entry ban, and may take weeks to resolve.
Engaging in prohibited activities on an e-VoA, such as freelancing or unauthorised work, also leads to deportation. To stay longer than 60 days, you must exit Indonesia and apply for a different visa type, such as the B1 single-entry visa (up to 180 days).
