Bali Visa for Filipino Citizens 2026 — Visa-Free Entry & Long-Stay

Filipino citizens enter Bali visa-free for up to 30 days in 2026 — no visa fee — as ASEAN members. Visa-free entry is non-extendable; to stay longer, Filipinos use the Visa on Arrival (IDR 500,000, ~PHP 2,000, extendable to 60 days) or a long-stay visa like the Digital Nomad E33G. All arrivals complete the All Indonesia Arrival Card.

Do Filipinos Need a Visa for Bali in 2026?

No — for a short trip, Filipino passport-holders do not need a visa for Bali. As fellow members of ASEAN, Philippine citizens enjoy visa-free entry to Indonesia for up to 30 days of tourism, at no visa cost. You arrive at Ngurah Rai (Denpasar) Airport with a valid passport and the required arrival card; there is no VOA fee for a standard short visit. With direct and one-stop flights from Manila and Cebu, Bali is one of the easiest international getaways for Filipinos.

There is one important limitation: visa-free entry cannot be extended and cannot be converted to a longer permit onshore. The free 30 days is exactly that — 30 days, then you must leave.

So if you want to stay longer than 30 days, you have two choices:

1. Buy the Visa on Arrival (VOA) instead of entering visa-free. The VOA costs IDR 500,000 (~PHP 2,000) for 30 days but, unlike visa-free entry, it can be extended once to 60 days total. If you know in advance you’ll want more than 30 days, choose the VOA/eVOA from the start.
2. Apply for a long-stay visa (KITAS or Second Home) if you intend to work, study or live in Bali.

A note for Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs): a tourist trip to Bali uses the visa-free or VOA route like any other Filipino traveller. A job in Indonesia is entirely different — that requires a work permit and Working KITAS sponsored by an Indonesian employer, not a tourist entry. We cover both below.

When Filipinos Should Apply for the eVOA Anyway

Visa-free is ideal for short trips — but if you might stay beyond 30 days, apply for the eVOA before you fly so your stay is extendable:

1. Use the official portal only — evisa.imigrasi.go.id. It is the sole official Indonesian eVOA site; check the URL to avoid scam copies. Apply 90 days to 48 hours before departure.
2. Register and select “Visa on Arrival (B1)”, choosing the Philippines as your nationality.
3. Upload your Philippine passport bio page (valid 6+ months beyond arrival, with a blank page) and a passport-style photo.
4. Pay IDR 500,000 by Visa, Mastercard or JCB — your Philippine card or a GCard/credit card is charged the peso equivalent (about ₱2,000) at your bank’s rate.
5. Receive the eVOA PDF by email — print it and keep a phone copy. Up to five applicants per session suits families.
6. On arrival, use the eVOA lane, complete the All Indonesia Arrival Card, and pay the tourist levy.

If your trip is certainly 30 days or fewer, you can skip this and enter visa-free. Ask us if you’re unsure which route fits your dates.

Best Long-Stay Visa for Filipinos

Filipinos who stay in Bali long-term split mainly into employees of Indonesian companies, remote workers, and students (yoga, diving, hospitality). The right route depends on your purpose:

• Employed by an Indonesian company? This is the most common Filipino long-stay scenario. You need a Working KITAS E23, sponsored by your employer, with the RPTKA work-permit approval. Tourist entry can never be used for employment.
• Working remotely for an overseas employer? The Digital Nomad Visa E33G gives one year if you earn USD 60,000+/year and hold an overseas employment contract. It is not renewable — you exit and re-apply to continue.
• Studying in Bali? A Student KITAS requires an enrolment letter and institutional sponsor.
• Settling for years at any age, or buying property? The Second Home Visa E33 requires an IDR 2 billion (~USD 130,000) deposit in a state bank within 90 days of arrival, or qualifying property.

Note that visa-free or VOA entries cannot be converted to a KITAS onshore; for a long stay you generally enter on a B211A and convert, or the employer arranges the KITAS directly. We’ll map the cleanest route in pesos and dollars.

Filipino Passport — What You Need at Ngurah Rai Airport

Even on visa-free entry, Filipinos need:

• Passport validity: at least 6 months beyond arrival, with a blank page.
• Entry basis: visa-free (≤30 days) or a VOA/eVOA if you want an extendable stay.
• All Indonesia Arrival Card (AIDC): free, at allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id within 3 days before arrival — this applies to visa-free arrivals too.
• Bali Tourist Levy: IDR 150,000 (~PHP 600) per person.
• Onward/return ticket and accommodation booking — sometimes checked for ASEAN visa-free travellers.
• Proof of funds: be ready to evidence around USD 2,000 equivalent if asked.

The Philippine passport gives you easy ASEAN entry, but the authoritative entry rule is set by Indonesian immigration at imigrasi.go.id — follow it over third-party advice.

FAQ — Bali Visa for Filipinos

Q1: Is Bali really visa-free for Filipinos in 2026?
Yes — Filipino citizens enter Bali (Indonesia) visa-free for up to 30 days of tourism, as ASEAN members, with no visa fee. The catch is that visa-free entry cannot be extended. If you might stay longer, choose the VOA (IDR 500,000, ~₱2,000) instead, which extends to 60 days. ASEAN visa-free terms are reviewed periodically — confirm at imigrasi.go.id before you fly.

Q2: I’m an OFW — can I work in Bali on visa-free entry?
No. Visa-free entry and the VOA are strictly for tourism. To work legally in Indonesia you need a Working KITAS E23 sponsored by an Indonesian employer, with the RPTKA work-permit approval. Working on a tourist entry is illegal and enforced. Talk to us if you have a job offer in Bali.

Q3: Can I extend my visa-free stay in Bali?
No. Visa-free entry is a fixed 30 days with no extension and no onshore conversion. To stay longer, you must either have entered on a VOA (extendable once to 60 days) or apply for a longer visa such as a B211A or KITAS.

Q4: Should I use visa-free entry or buy the VOA?
If your trip is 30 days or fewer, use free visa-free entry. If you might want more than 30 days, buy the VOA/eVOA (IDR 500,000, ~₱2,000) from the start — only the VOA can be extended to 60 days, and you can’t switch from visa-free after arriving.

Q5: How long can Filipinos stay in Bali?
Visa-free: up to 30 days (no extension). VOA/eVOA: up to 60 days (30 + one extension). For longer, use a B211A, a Working KITAS, a Digital Nomad KITAS, or the Second Home Visa.
