Overview

Bangladesh passport holders need to apply for an electronic visa (e-Visa) before traveling to Indonesia. The e-Visa allows stays of up to 60 days. Applications are processed online and typically approved within a few business days.

Keep a printed or digital copy of the e-Visa approval to present at the border.

Entry Requirements

  • Passport with at least 6 months validity beyond your planned departure date
  • Return or onward travel ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel reservation, host invitation)
  • Sufficient funds for your stay
  • Visa or visa approval document (apply in advance)

Common Reasons for Refusal

  • Insufficient funds or inability to demonstrate financial support for your stay
  • Missing return or onward ticket
  • Travel history showing repeated short trips that suggest residency intent
  • Past visa overstays or immigration violations in any country
  • Incomplete or inconsistent documentation at the border

Travel Tips

  • Carry digital and printed copies of all documents in case immigration requests them.
  • Check whether your travel insurance covers Indonesia — many travelers neglect this until needed.
  • Verify the latest entry rules within 7 days of departure: policies can change quickly.
  • If you have prior visa refusals or criminal records anywhere, declare honestly when asked — discovered omissions are worse than the original issue.

Visa policies change. Confirm with the Indonesia embassy before travel.
