All Indonesia, Visa, eSIM, and Currency Exchange

Before your Bali adventure, let's dive into some essential preparations

you can make in advance from home.

All Indonesia

Visa

eSIM

Currency Exchange

Bali Travel Essentials - 1. All Indonesia

What is All Indonesia?

It's a mandatory preparation for entering Indonesia,

integrating the necessary Immigration, Customs, Health, and Quarantine declarations

into one form. (You absolutely must do this!)

You can submit it starting 3 days before your Bali departure

(and it's also possible to do upon arrival in Bali).

No need for long explanations, let's get straight to completing All Indonesia! Go, go, go!

All Indonesia Official Website ⬇️

Since I don't know Indonesian, I'll switch the language

to English in the top right corner.

Since we're foreign visitors, select 'Foreign Visitor'.

Personal Data Entry

Nationality (e.g., Korea) / Name / Date of Birth / Nationality (e.g., Korea) / Gender

Passport Number / Passport Expiry Date

Contact Information (Account Information)

Phone Number / Email Address

For All Indonesia, one main traveler can apply and verify with a QR code.

If you're traveling with 2 or more people, you can add additional travelers in the bottom right.

Information for the main traveler and a total of two travelers will appear separately,

prompting you to enter travel details for each.

Travel Details

Arrival Date in Indonesia / Departure Date from Indonesia

The last question asks if you have a KITAS/KITAP visa.

Since we don't, select No.

Enter the information for each traveler.

Once you see the green confirmation text below their name,

you're all set! (Then click 'Next').

Mode of Transport to Indonesia

This section asks for information on whether you're arriving in Indonesia by plane

or by boat. Most of you will be flying, so refer to the pre-filled information.

Airline / Purpose of Travel

Arrival Airport / Aircraft Type

Flight Name / Flight Number

(e.g., Cheongju-Bali T'way flight details are entered here)

Address in Indonesia

Enter one of your Bali accommodations

(e.g., I've filled in Kenran Resort, which I booked in Ubud).

The mode of transport section was convenient as it's the same for all travelers,

so you only need to fill it out once.

Finally, the Customs, Health, and Quarantine Declaration sections.

Click on each traveler to enter their information.

Health Declaration

Do you have symptoms such as fever, cough, runny nose, shortness of breath, sore throat, skin lesions,

or rash? - No

Select any other countries visited within 21 days prior to departing for Indonesia (multiple selections possible).

Since I hadn't visited any other countries within 21 days,

I selected Republic of Korea.

​

Quarantine Declaration

Are you carrying any animals, fish, plants, or processed products? - No

Customs Declaration

Number of baggage upon arrival

Do you have any items to declare to customs? - No

Any electronic devices purchased overseas...

Will you be using it with an Indonesian cellular network? - No

For most short trips to Bali, you won't need to register your IMEI. So, no worries there!

(This rule doesn't apply to stays under 90 days, which is usually the case for tourists).

Finally, make sure to check the 'Agree' box for all the application contents and declarations. You're almost there!

Hit that Submit button! It'll prompt you for an authentication code, and once you type it in, you're all set!

Voila! All your info is submitted, and you'll see a handy summary.

Look for the QR code on the right side of the main traveler's section.

(Good to note: other travelers won't have individual QR codes).

That's it! This QR code is your golden ticket!

Since I completed the 'All Indonesia' process on my computer, I simply downloaded the QR code and saved it to my phone. Smart move for easy access!

Right below the QR code, you'll find all the information you entered, neatly organized (always a good idea to double-check!).

Bali Travel Essentials - 2. Visa

Remember, you'll need a visa to enter Indonesia.

The visa fee is 500,000 Rupiah (that's about ~$31).

If you pay by card on-site, there's an additional card fee of 24,000 Rupiah (around ~$2).

At the very bottom of your QR code, you'll spot a green box that says 'Apply for Visa On Arrival (VOA).' Click it, and you can get a link sent to your email to issue an e-visa. This means you can get your e-visa in advance too! ⭐

If you're aiming for a smoother, quicker immigration process upon arrival in Indonesia, I highly recommend the convenient e-visa option (though it might have a small additional fee of a few dollars, say ~$2).

Personally, I skipped the e-visa this time. I had ample time before my jeep tour departure right after landing, so I wasn't in a rush.

You can always purchase a Visa On Arrival directly at the airport (they accept both cash and card).

Bali Travel Essentials - 3. eSIMs, SIM Cards, & Roaming

When it comes to your Bali adventure,

eSIMs, SIM cards, or roaming are absolute must-haves!

There's a dizzying array of eSIM and SIM card providers out there. But let me introduce you to USIMS (유심사) eSIM/SIM, my go-to choice for every international trip!

I've personally put USIMS eSIMs to the test in various Southeast Asian spots like Osaka and Phu Quoc, and I've always been super happy with their performance.

So naturally, for this Bali trip, I've got my USIMS eSIM ready to go! It's incredibly convenient since you can install it right from home before you even leave.

Bali Travel Essentials - 4. Currency Exchange

These days, with fantastic travel cards and currency exchange options available, the old method of double exchanging (like USD to Rupiah) isn't as common.

Especially with the dollar exchange rate on the rise, I highly recommend 'Travelog' or similar travel wallets that come with zero exchange fees.

On my personal adventures abroad,

Travelog is my undisputed champion.

What makes Travelog a winner? You can exchange directly to Rupiah for free, and even withdraw cash from local ATMs without any fees! It's a game-changer!

For Bali, Indonesia, as a well-developed tourist hub,

you'll find that many places are well-equipped for card payments rather than relying solely on cash.

Opting for a credit card with no foreign transaction fees is another smart move!

(Think no fees, plus potential mileage accumulation, and more perks).

Since a few local spots might still be cash-only,

it's a good idea to withdraw a small amount of local currency and use your card for everything else.
