Turkish passport holders enter Indonesia visa-free for up to 30 days under a reciprocal visa exemption that took effect in July 2025. No fee, no advance application. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry. At Ngurah Rai (DPS) in Bali, Soekarno-Hatta (CGK) in Jakarta, or other international airports, you receive a stamp at immigration. The visa-free entry is for tourism, business meetings, and medical visits only and cannot be extended.
If you want a longer stay, skip the visa-free lane and purchase a Visa on Arrival (VOA) instead, available at the same airports for IDR 500,000 (about TRY 1,050). The VOA is valid for 30 days and extendable once for another 30 days at a local immigration office. This gives you up to 60 days total. The visa-free entry does not offer this extension option, so choose the VOA at arrival if you might need more than 30 days.
