Bali visa for a long stay: which visa for 1 to 6 months in Bali (2026)
Planning a month, three months or half a year in Bali? Which visa fits your dates, how extensions work, and what to sort out before you land, based on official Indonesian sources.

Bali visa for a long stay: the short answer
For up to two months, the e-VOA (visa on arrival) is usually enough: 30 days, extendable once by 30 days. For up to six months, apply online for a C1 single-entry visit visa before you travel: 60 days, extendable twice by 60 days, up to 180 days. To live in Bali for up to a year while working for a company abroad, look at the E33G remote worker visa.
Whichever visa you choose, submit the arrival card before you land, pay the Bali tourist levy once per trip, and check the official Indonesian eVisa website for the latest rules for your nationality.
e-VOA: up to 60 days
The visa on arrival is available to citizens of eligible countries, either online in advance as an e-VOA or at the airport. According to the official eVisa website, it allows a stay of up to 30 days and costs IDR 500,000, plus card fees if you pay by card.
You can extend it once for another 30 days, for a total of 60 days. The extension also costs IDR 500,000 and should be started before your first 30 days run out.
C1 visit visa: up to 6 months
For a stay of two to six months, the C1 single-entry visit visa is the usual choice. It must be applied for online before you travel, and it gives a first stay of 60 days. According to the Embassy of Indonesia in The Hague, it can then be extended twice, by 60 days each time, up to a maximum of 180 days.
Each extension is started through your eVisa account and may involve a visit to an immigration office for a photo and an interview, so plan it a little before the deadline.
Longer stays and remote work
If you work for a company outside Indonesia and want to stay up to a year, the E33G remote worker visa is designed for you. The official eVisa website asks for an employment agreement with a company established outside Indonesia and an income of at least USD 60,000 a year, and the government charges total about IDR 7,000,000, according to Roafly.
Tourist and visit visas do not allow you to work for Indonesian companies or clients. Frequent visitors can also look at multiple-entry visit visas on the eVisa website.
Before you land
All travellers must submit an arrival card within three days before arriving in Indonesia, on the official eVisa website. Foreign tourists visiting Bali also pay a tourist levy of IDR 150,000 per person, once per trip, through the official Love Bali website or app.
Make sure your passport has enough validity left for your whole stay, and keep digital copies of your visa, levy receipt and booking confirmation on your phone.
Extensions and overstays
Start every extension before your current permit expires, and keep the receipt. Overstaying is fined for every extra day and can cause problems on your next trip, so if your plans change, extend early or leave on time.
