Visa Kunjungan Wisata Index C1 (Tourist Visit Visa, single entry)
Visa must be used to enter within 90 days of issue; the stay permit can be extended in-country up to a maximum of 180 days totalIndonesia's index C1 tourist visit visa is the code that replaced the old B211A: it costs Rp 1.000.000 in government fees, allows one entry, and gives a stay of maximum 60 days counted from arrival, extendable inside Indonesia up to a maximum of 180 days. Immigration requires a three-month personal bank statement showing at least USD 2,000, the visa must be used within 90 days of issue, and processing is quoted as five working days after the visa payment is received. Since Circular IMI-417.GR.01.01 took effect on 29 May 2025, every stay-permit extension requires the foreigner to appear at an immigration office in person for a photo and interview, so the fully-online extension agents used to sell no longer exists.
