Health Insurance is No Longer Required to Enter Indonesia

Starting June 8, foreign arrivals will no longer need to show COVID-19 health insurance upon entry.

This news was delivered directly by Prof. Wiku Adisamito, a spokesperson for the COVID-19 Task Force. This is mentioned in the addendum circular letter number 19 of 2022.

In the press conference, he also mentioned that the removal of the obligation for foreigners to prove ownership of health insurance which includes COVID-19 financing has been decided. This was done due to the declining trend in international and national COVID-19 cases.

However, in Indonesia, international traveler – Pelaku Perjalanan Luar Negri (PPLN) is still required to obey the regulations that apply here. This includes the obligation to fill in the domestic eHAC in the PeduliLindungi application when traveling to another region or place. Plus, to maximize the prevention of the spread of the COVID-19 virus in the domestic area, the government will be continuing to extend PPKM until 4th July for all areas of Java and Bali. This is based on the two instructions from the Home Affairs Minister, all regions in Java and Bali are at PPKM level 1.

If you want to know how the contents of the addendum, the following is the letter that contains the news:

Addendum SE No 19 the Year 2022

“Delete at number 5 the letter f which states: For PPLN foreigners, attach proof of ownership of health insurance which includes financing for handling COVID-19 and medical evacuation to a referral hospital with a minimum coverage value as determined by the organizer, manager, or local government;”
