Common Mistakes to Avoid

Applying at the airport instead of online — eVOA must be obtained before arriving (separate from the on-arrival counter).

Uploading a low-quality passport scan — this causes rejection. Use a clear, flat scan of your bio page.

Forgetting to print or save your eVOA — you must present it at immigration.

Assuming eVOA can be extended multiple times — it can only be extended once.

Assuming eVOA qualifies for business or employment activity — it does not.

Overstaying without extending — fines of IDR 1,000,000 per day apply.
