On-Arrival Testing
This has now been removed for those considered fully vaccinated. Visitors are still required to have a pre-departure PCR-RT test. There is health screening upon arrival, and those higher than 37.5 Celsius temperature are required to take a test.

Indonesia Indonesia has decided to drop the arrival Covid-19 test altogether for those who are fully vaccinated. Instead, incoming passengers only need to undergo a health screening and be directed to a Covid-19 PCR-RT test if a high temperature is detected.

Excerpt from the Indonesia Expat:
Initially, Coordinating Minister for Maritime Affairs Luhut Binsar Pandjaitan said that Indonesia’s economic recovery could rise quickly after February. However, he highlighted that the international aviation sector still needs to be improved.

“International flight capacity is still far from normal. For this reason, the government will take steps. We will relax the overseas travellers’ entry test rules for entering Indonesia so that the number of incoming flights can increase without causing a buildup at the airport,” he said at a press conference on Monday 4th April 2022.

“Overseas travellers would have to receive full vaccinations then provide a negative PCR test result valid within 48 hours before departure in their home country,” said Hartarto.

Upon arrival, overseas travellers are still required to go through a health screening process by checking body temperature. Anyone above 37.5 degrees Celsius will immediately be taken for a PCR test by officers whereas those below this body temperature won’t be asked to take a COVID-19 test of any sort.

Indonesia Qatar Airways has resumed its flights to Denpasar-Bali, paving the way for another alternative to a direct international flight to the island which is the requirement for the new arrival guidelines.

This flight will operate four times a week (Sunday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Friday), leaving Doha at 2:05 am and arriving in Denpasar at 4:55 pm.

The return flight leaves Denpasar at 1:05 am, arriving in Doha at 5:35 am which is in time for the morning departure bank allowing for most connections.

Indonesia Indonesia Welcomes Visitors With Arrival Test & No Quarantine.
Now, Indonesia has dropped up the follow-up test requirement, and fully vaccinated visitors are only required to wait for the result from a test performed at the airport at their hotel before freely going on their business.

Visitors to Bali are supposed to book CHSE certified accommodation for the duration of their stays.

Currently, international arrivals by air are allowed only at the Soekarno-Hatta main international airport outside Jakarta and six other airports: Juanda in East Java; Ngurah Rai in Bali, Hang Nadim in Batam; Raja Haji Fisabilillah in Tanjung Pinang; Sam Ratulangi in Manado and Zainuddin Abdul Madjid in Central Lombok.

Other than the seven airports, overseas travellers may arrive in Indonesia by sea only via Bali, Batam, Tanjung Pinang, Nunukan in North Kalimantan, and by land via Entikong in West Kalimantan and Motaain in Nusa Tenggara Timur.

Indonesia Bloomberg – Indonesia Ends All Quarantine Requirement in Broad Reopening.
Indonesia is lifting all quarantine rules for fully-vaccinated visitors to end two years of border closure, following its neighbors in easing entry restrictions as Southeast Asia moves past the worst of the omicron wave.

The government will expand its quarantine-free travels to the rest of the country following a successful two-week trial of the program in Bali, Batam and Bintan islands, where infections have remained low, Tourism Minister Sandiaga Uno said in his weekly briefing on Monday. Arriving visitors are still required to take the Covid-19 test.

Southeast Asia’s largest economy has steadily chipped away at its remaining virus restrictions, most recently by allowing domestic travelers to board flights without having to present negative test results. Daily coronavirus cases have dropped more than 90% from a mid-February peak, even as deaths remain high, reaching 154 people on Monday.

“We are now preparing to transition to a new post-pandemic economic order, and we will carry out this normalization in the next few months,” Uno said. “If everything goes smoothly after Eid, then this process will continue so that we can expand our economic activities.”

Worshipers can carry out religious activities during the upcoming Ramadan fasting month, and people are allowed to travel to their hometowns as long they are fully vaccinated and adhere to the health protocols, said Uno.

In the past two years, traveling during the month was restricted as it usually resulted in a surge in Covid infections. The annual holiday migration typically sees more than 81 million people head home to regional towns from urban centers in Muslim majority Indonesia and Malaysia.

Uno also said that the visa-on-arrival program has been expanded to cover a total of 42 countries, effective Monday.

The Indonesian Government in Bali has confirmed that effective today, March 21, 2022, 20 more nationalities will be eligible for the Visa on Arrival process, bringing the total to 43 since the process has been restarted on March 7th.
Bali has instituted the Visa on Arrival again to ease entry restrictions while still controlling the flow and restarting the tourism industry that has been decimated during Covid in the last two years.

You can extend the 30-day visa-on-arrival once for a total maximum of 60 days. Other adjustments are not allowed. Visitors need to have a return ticket as per the usual entry requirement. You also have to arrive directly in Bali from abroad and right now the only option for that is Singapore Airlines.

Travelers entering Bali under the Visa on Arrival are still required to book a 4 day/3 night stay from a list of CHSE hotels but since last week an Air BnB VILLA booking is also acceptable.

So for the rest of Indonesia, you need to apply for a visa in advance.

Quarantine (health monitoring) for those arriving in Jakarta is now down to one night if you are considered fully vaccinated (two jabs), but you need to arrange a visa, as visa-on-arrival is not available.

There is no quarantine for those arriving in Bali, but you need to book CHSE certified hotel for three (could be four) nights and do a second test on day 3. You are free to leave Bali on your fourth day.

Both require three PCR-RT tests:
1. Predeparture within 48 hours of departure

2. At the arrival airport

3. On the day 3 of your arrival

Indonesia It has now officially confirmed that Visa-On-Arrival is available for the following 23 nationals who enter Indonesia through Bali from March 7, 2022.

Note that it has not yet officially confirmed that the Warm Up Vacation for these nationals is scrapped, but I expect this to happen in the next few hours.

What has not yet been also confirmed is that the visitor can move freely within Bali after the first negative test. Then they need to have an additional test on day 3, and if that is negative too, visitors can leave Bali and enter other parts of Indonesia.

Indonesia The European Union’s Council has added Indonesia to its list of epidemiologically safe third countries after the country marked a drop in the number of Coronavirus cases in its territory.

Council’s decision means that now the Member States are advised to remove the entry ban on the residents of Indonesia, both vaccinated and non-vaccinated, as soon as possible.

“Following a review under the recommendation on the gradual lifting of the temporary restrictions on non-essential travel into the EU, the Council updated the list of countries, special administrative regions and other entities and territorial authorities for which travel restrictions should be lifted. In particular, Indonesia was added to the list,” the Council notes in a press release issued on November 18.

Thus, starting from the same date, the countries in the EU’s list of safe third countries, for which the Member States should remove entry restrictions for non-essential trips and for unvaccinated travellers as well, consists of the following.

Argentina
Australia
Bahrain
Canada
Chile
Colombia
Indonesia
Jordan
Kuwait
Namibia
New Zealand
Peru
Qatar
Rwanda
Saudi Arabia
South Korea
The United Arab Emirates
Uruguay
China (subject to confirmation of reciprocity)
“Travel restrictions should also be gradually lifted for the special administrative regions of China Hong Kong and Macao. Under the category of entities and territorial authorities that are not recognised as states by at least one member state, travel restrictions for Taiwan should also be gradually lifted,” the Council notes.

It further explains that the residents of the four European Microstates, Andorra, Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican – should be treated as EU residents when it comes to this recommendation.

Among the main conditions for a country to become part of this list is that the same should register less than 75 cases for 100,000 residents in the prior two weeks before the list is updated. Data by the World Health Organization (WHO) show that Indonesia had less than one case per 100,000 residents in the previous seven days.

However, WHO has reported much higher rates for some other countries in the EU’s safe list, like Jordan, which in the last seven days reported 177 cases per 100,000 residents. The number is not that different from the number of cases recorded in the United States, 181 cases within seven days per 100,000 residents. Yet, the US is not part of the list.

Indonesia Indonesia this past week reduced the mandatory quarantine for fully vaccinated visitors to three days (72 hours) and those having received one shot to four days (96 hours).

The Indonesian government has decided to reduce the mandatory quarantine period for international travelers, both Indonesian citizens and foreigners, from five to three days, Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said on Tuesday.

“This rule applies to international travelers who have met the requirements, including being fully vaccinated and negative for COVID-19 based on PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test results since their departures, after the arrivals in Indonesia, and at the end of the quarantine period,” Hartarto explained in a press release.

Meanwhile, domestic travelers who have been fully vaccinated are required to show negative antigen swab test results or PCR tests for those who have received only one shot of vaccines.

Hartarto emphasized that the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia is primarily under control as the number of cases continues to decline.

Indonesia is proposing the establishment of a vaccinated travel lane (VTL) with Australia, said Tourism Minister Sandiaga Uno during a press briefing on Monday.

To date, visitors from 19 countries, including China, France, New Zealand and the United Arab Emirates, have been allowed to travel to Bali, which is famous for its emerald rice terraces, Hindu temples and white-sand beaches.

Quarantine rules
According to Circular of Covid-19 Task Force No. 20 Year 2021, those who receive negative PCR results upon arrival are required to undergo mandatory quarantine for 5 x 24 hours or 14 x24 hours depending on the escalation COVID-19 case of the origin country. The requirements are as follows:

For Indonesian citizens within the category of migrant workers, students that have finished education, and civil servants on duty, the quarantine facilities provided by the Indonesia government are free of charge.
For Indonesian citizens (not on the criteria for the previous points) and foreigners in self-funded quarantine accommodation (hotels/inns) recommended by the COVID-19 Task Force and have met the terms and conditions of the Indonesian Hotel and Restaurant Association and the Ministry of Health.
Four days after self-quarantine from the date of arrival, another RT-PCR test will be conducted. If the test shows a negative result, after 5 days of quarantine, you will be declared for completed quarantine. Meanwhile, if the RT-PCR test shows positive result then you will have to undergo the following procedures:

Treatment in centralized isolation facilities for asymptomatic people and people with mild symptoms.

Treatment at a referral hospital for people with moderate and severe symptoms.

Indonesia In a virtual press conference on Monday, the Indonesian cabinet minister in charge of the sector announced that the Bali airport would reopen for international flights from October 14, 2021, and arriving passengers would need to quarantine for eight nights and have hotel confirmation for the period.

Visitors could arrive from countries such as South Korea, China, Japan, United Arab Emirates, and New Zealand

Indonesia The governor of Bali doesn’t want to lower the quarantine period of incoming visitors to two nights but rather have them locked up in hotels for eight nights before allowing tourists to roam around the island.

An excerpt from the Bali Sun:
Officials from the Bali Health Agency have refused the proposal to reduce quarantine time for international visitors into only 2 days when the border reopens.

The Head of the Bali Health Agency, Dr. Ketut Suarjaya confirmed that the provincial government has rejected the proposal and will continue to implement the 8 day quarantine policy for all international travelers once the international travel corridor reopens in the near future.

Dr. Suarjaya was concerned that the implementation might cause another transmission of Covid-19’s new variant from the foreign visitors. “I totally disagree with that idea as the incubation period of Covid-19 transmission is more than 2 days. So we have to prevent the virus transmission, especially the new variant from getting onto the island.” Dr. Suarjaya said on Thursday (30/9).

Indonesia Indonesia followed Australia’s lead and started limiting, effective today, the number of passengers that each international flight can bring to just 90 regardless of the plane type used.

Long-haul airlines flying to Indonesia from global gateways such as Istanbul, Dubai, and Singapore must deny boarding passengers if the flight is over 90.

Indonesia claims that this will limit the new Covid-19 variations potentially entering the country (unlikely the case).

This per light maximum passengers limit puts the airlines in a difficult position, especially those that fly on wide-body aircraft, as 90 can be less than a third of the maximum capacity. There is no limit on the number of passengers airlines can transport FROM Indonesia.

Those who plan to fly to Indonesia, as long as this rule is in place, will likely pay much higher prices for the economy class tickets, as airlines will first fill up the first, business, and premium economy cabins.

Efektif 30 September 2021, penerbangan internasional hanya diizinkan maksimal 90 pax dalam 1 penerbangan. pic.twitter.com/qZ7tpuSTtB

Indonesia On September 15, the Minister of Justice and Human Rights signed a decree expanding the list of categories of persons who are allowed to enter Indonesia. Travelers who have the following entry documents are allowed to enter the country:

a. Service visa (Visa dinas);
b. Diplomatic visa (Visa diplomatik);
c. Visitor visa (Visa kunjungan); *
d. Visa with a limited period of stay (VITAS – Visa tinggal terbatas);
e. Service residence permit (Izin Tinggal dinas);
f. Diplomatic residence permit (Izin Tinggal diplomatik);
g. Limited stay permit (Izin Tinggal terbatas or ITAS / KITAS); and
h. Permanent residence permit (Izin Tinggal tetap or ITAP / KITAP).
—
* E-business / social visa 211 is a visitor visa or Visa kunjungan (approx. Transl.)

The main change is that from September 15, entry is open for foreigners with e-business and social offshore visas, as well as for foreigners with limited stay visas (VITAS).

The ruling emphasizes that travelers must still comply with health protocols. In particular, have a certificate of complete vaccination against COVID-19. This requirement does not apply to persons under 12 years of age.

The decree does not contain information about changing the terms of quarantine upon arrival. Thus, the rule of 8-day quarantine for travelers arriving from abroad continues to apply.

It is also necessary to have a certificate of completion of the PCR test, insurance covering the treatment of COVID-19, or a letter of readiness to pay for treatment in case of infection.

Every 2 weeks, ministries and agencies involved in the fight against COVID-19 in Indonesia will provide information on countries with high levels of infection. The Minister of Justice may prohibit entry of foreigners from countries with a high spread of COVID-19.

The resolution comes into force from the date of signing, that is, from September 15th. However, it is not yet known how exactly its rules will be implemented in practice. Will the entry open for foreigners with electronic visas and VITAS from September 15, or travelers will have to wait for the change in aviation rules.
