What the C7C Arts and Skills Visa actually is

The C7C clears a specific engagement. It is not a permit to build a paying practice here.

A tourist visa does not cover performing, and in 2026 that is actively enforced. The C7C exists precisely for the appearance a tourist visa cannot carry.

The final price scales with the engagement and the visa specifics, so it is confirmed at quote rather than listed flat.

What it costs

All in, government fees included. Deposits and balances required by regulation sit outside this and are yours to hold.

  • Final price Scales with the engagement At quote
  • Funds Around USD 2,000 may be required Held by you
  • Bali Tourist Levy Separate government charge IDR 150,000

Three things performers should know

The first one is enforced.

A tourist visa does not cover performing

Appearing at an event on one is exactly the pattern 2026 enforcement targets.

See the enforcement picture

The organiser has to be involved

The host, promoter or venue sponsors the visa. Booking talent without that is booking a problem.
