Can You Extend Your Indonesia Visa?

Yes — most Indonesian visas can be extended, but the process and eligibility depend on your visa type.

What Happens if You Overstay?

Overstaying is serious. Penalties include:

• •Fine of IDR 1,000,000 per day of overstay
• •Detention until fine is paid
• •Deportation
• •Potential blacklisting from Indonesia

Always extend BEFORE your visa expires.

Can You Do a Visa Run?

Some travelers exit Indonesia and re-enter on a new visa. This is allowed but:

• •Not guaranteed — immigration can deny entry
• •Frequent visa runs may attract scrutiny
• •Rules change — verify before planning
