New Regulations for Indonesia's Visa on Arrival

by Rahman

Starting January 26 2010, foreign tourists from countries eligible for "visa on arrival" will now be given a 30-day visa (USD 25) that can be renewed for an additional 30 days. The new rule is expected to extend tourists’ stays in Indonesia, giving them a chance to visit more places in the country. A number of tourism critics, however, are unhappy with the regulation as tourists are not automatically given a 60-day visa on arrival, removing the need for any renewal process and the still unclear cost of extending the original visa.
