Bali visa information for German travellers
Entry requirements for German passport holders are set by the Indonesian government and can change. Always confirm current rules with official sources before you book.
Indonesia sets and changes its own entry rules, and they are not the same for every nationality. Before booking, check the Federal Foreign Office (Auswärtiges Amt) travel information for Indonesia and the official Indonesian immigration portal, then confirm the details with your airline at check-in.
Points German travellers commonly need to verify:
- Which visa route currently applies to German passport holders for tourism, what it costs, and how long a stay it permits.
- Whether it must be applied for online before departure or can be obtained on arrival at Bali's Ngurah Rai (Denpasar) airport.
- Passport validity requirements — six months' validity beyond the date of arrival is a common rule — and whether blank pages are required.
- Whether an extension is possible, and whether it must be applied for locally.
- Any electronic arrival registration or customs declaration (e-CD) that must be completed shortly before landing.
- Any tourist levy or departure fee payable in addition to the visa.
We deliberately do not restate fees, durations or processing rules here, and nothing on this page guarantees entry — the decision always rests with Indonesian immigration officials. Use the official sources above and check again close to your departure date.
