This free visa is for 30 days only and cannot be extended. You can enter and exit Indonesia on a free visa through 29 airports and 88 harbours and 7 land crossings.
Find out which airports and harbours can process free visa arrivals and departures.
The purpose of increasing the lost of free visa countries was to boost the number of foreign visitors to Indonesia. This increase will then create new job opportunities.
According to Rizal the original extra 45 countries (added on 10 June 2015) had at that time already created a 15% growth in tourist arrivals.
These Indonesia free visa countries are chosen on a set of strict government criteria.
“Countries that are known to have issues with drugs, economic stability, and radicalism are not eligible” said Rizal.
Director General of Immigration Ronny Sompie said that they will add immigration counters at the airports specifically for visa-free visitors.
Video of press release;
The above was released in a meeting on Tuesday, 1 September 2015. This meeting was attended by the Director General of Immigration Ronny Sompie, the Minister of Tourism Arief Yahya, Major General Erfi Triassunu, Representatives of the Police and Representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

What visa?
I hold a Sri lankan passport and the list includes Sri Lanka as a VOA country. However, I am getting mixed signals from the Indonesia embassy in Sri Lanka. Please can you confirm that I can obtain a VOA? My stay is just 1 week
There are 2 different visas. The most common one is the free visa which Sri Lanka is entitled to. The other one is the VOA to which Sri Lanka is not entitled to. If you plan to stay for 30 days or less then you can just enter on the free visa.
How about the opposite
Will they,that 169 country accept Indonesia people to go with out visa ?
You will need to check the visa requirements for those countries before travelling.

I will have an educational training in indonesia and I am from Philippines. Due to the availability of flights for my arrival and departure I would have to stay there for 32 days. What should I do?
You will either have to apply for a 60 day visa before travelling or do a visa run before your first 30 day visa expires and then re-enter on a new 30 day visa. If you “accidentally” overstay your visa then the penalty is Rp 300,000 per day you overstay. There have been discussions to increase the overstay penalty from Rp 300,000 to Rp 1,000,000 per day but so far that is only hearsay.
