I got quoted for a visa 5.5 m IDR which I think is just ridiculous. You can get 7 days quarantine hotel airport transfer all tests and have change left for that. Does any one know a cheap place or is it only possible to get ripped off real bad.

Read the link I posted. It clearly says Bali.

"All international tourists may only enter Indonesia via Bali (Ngurah Rai International Airport) and or Riau Islands (Raja Haji Fisabilillah International Airport). ".

You are correct in theory. However, in practice no international flights are arriving into DPS airport.

You can't fly into Bali. You have to fly into Jakarta and quarantine there.

OK, this covid thing is really getting annoying. I've got an extremely cute little birdwatcher there, that I am eager to enjoy again. I am between jobs and have time to kill.

Trying to figure out what I have to do to get back into Indonesia. It looks like I need a 211 A Visa (Tourist). How difficult is it to get and how long does it take to get? Who can be my sponsor in-country? My hotel? I don't think my birdwatcher has enough money in bank to act as a sponsor.

I can only enter the country and quarantine in Bali? But, someone posted their link to all the quarantine hotels in Jakarta. Which is it? Can I quarantine in Jakarta?

I may have more questions..

Thanks for tip on local travel agencies. Will be a challenge to contact them from here in the USA.

The link I provided mentions a "211 A" tourist visa. I'd like to know what kind of visa HornDog215 got to enter Indonesia.

According to the Indonesian immigration website https://www.imigrasi.go.id/en/covid19-1/#1619354580218-89 b0 a356-5 f91.

Only citizens of 19 Countries can apply for the "Tourist Visa". USA is not one of them. Not sure if there is any flexibility with this. Perhaps with the right sponsor.

My friend is looking for dates in or around Jakarta. Covid has killed her real-world working income. I felt so bad seeing how skinny she has become that I've sent money on a number of occasions.

PM ME for details.

I am not an expert but I have some knowledge about the visa. As far as I know, consulates won't issue any visa as of right now. Currently, You need to apply business visa in order to enter Indonesia. For more info, you can go to www.imigrasi.go.id. Another thing is that you can contact local travel agent in indo to "take care" of that visa for a substantial amount of fee. Last time I checked, it will cost around 4 to 5 mil rupiah (about $350 to 400). If you do that, the process will take about 1 to 2 weeks.

It's all about the moneeey.

Hey all! Long time lurker new time poster! I am super excited to provide my reports! I was just approved and got my visa to enter Indonesia I'm leaving from JFK in NYC (my home) on February 21st.

My question is is the Grand Mercure Harmoni still a good hotel that has spas and restaurants open with working girls? As I'll have to quarantine in the hotel for. 7 days now I don't want nor can I actually leave the hotel. I was considering this hotel or going cheaper by staying at the classic.

Any advice or recommendations for "in house" entertainment for my month long stay in Indonesia starting February 21st?

Thanks in advance!

What type of visa did you get? How did you arrange a sponsor? Where did you get the health insurance policy from?

I paid in full a month ago. I don't think they even allow one to post on threads without subscription.

You can post without a subscription.

Maybe the person who you tried to PM doesn't have a subscription and can't receive PM's?
