Foreign travellers must provide evidence of double vaccination, with the second dose at least 14 days before entry and a PCR test 2×24 hours before departure.

People who have not had vaccination due to medical reasons are also exempt from quarantine but must attach a letter from a government hospital advising of the circumstances.

For children under 18 years of age, quarantine arrangements follow the provisions applied to parents or travel companions.

Travellers who have not been able to get vaccinated or have received the first dose of vaccine at least 14 days before departure, are required to quarantine for 5×24 hours.

Upon arrival, travellers must adhere to an arrival PCR test. After that, travellers can go to their accommodation or residence and wait until a negative result is received, before continuing travel.

All travellers must adhere to Indonesian health protocols.
