Do Luxembourgish passport holders need a visa for Indonesia?

By Arun Singh · Destinations Writer, Tripmojo · Updated · Reviewed by Simran Raheja

Yes, but it is a formality you can complete before you fly. Luxembourg is on Indonesia’s visa-on-arrival subject list, which costs 500,000 rupiah and gives 30 days, extendable once inside Indonesia for another 30. You can buy it at the airport counter or, better, apply online beforehand as an e-VoA. One thing to know before you go looking: the list is published in Indonesian, and Luxembourg appears on it as Luksemburg.

Entry requirements

  • A Luxembourg passport valid for at least six months from the date you arrive.
  • Either an approved e-VoA obtained online beforehand, or the fee for the visa on arrival at the airport.
  • A return or onward ticket and an address for the stay.
  • If you are going to Bali, the provincial tourism levy, which is separate from the visa and is paid to the province rather than to immigration.

How the visa works for a Luxembourg passport

The list to check is the immigration service’s own visa-on-arrival subject list, which runs to 97 entries, every one of them named individually. Luxembourg is on it. What is not obvious is that the list is published in Indonesian, so the entry reads Luksemburg, one letter away from what you are scanning for and easy to skip. Confirm it there before concluding you are ineligible and going looking for a consular visa you do not need.

Apply online in advance if you can. Indonesia’s e-VoA is the same permission as the airport sticker, bought through the official immigration portal before departure, and it means arriving with the visa already issued rather than queueing at a payment counter before immigration.

Either way the fee is 500,000 rupiah and the stay is 30 days from arrival.

One extension of a further 30 days is available for another 500,000 rupiah. The immigration service points e-VoA holders at the online portal and directs holders of a counter-bought visa to the nearest immigration office, but read that as where the application is lodged rather than a promise that the online route never requires you to appear: extensions have involved an in-person biometric step, so check the current instructions before planning around doing it from a laptop. Either way 60 days is the ceiling on this route, and there is no second extension.

Good to know

  • The list is in Indonesian, and that is what defeats people rather than any gap in it. All 97 entries are named individually, with no collective lines for the European Union or anyone else, so your country is either there or it is not. Luxembourg is there as Luksemburg, sitting between Lithuania and Maladewa. The same applies to neighbours you might be travelling with: France is Perancis, Germany is Jerman, the Netherlands is Belanda, the United Kingdom is Inggris, Greece is Yunani and Cyprus is Siprus. A search for the English name returns nothing and reads as a refusal.
  • Buying it before you fly and buying it on landing are the same visa but not the same experience. The e-VoA is issued before departure, so you arrive holding the permission rather than joining a payment queue that sits before passport control and moves at the speed of however many wide-bodies just landed. The price is identical. The only argument for the counter is not having arranged it.
  • Sixty days is the hard ceiling and the second thirty is not automatic. The extension is granted once, at designated immigration offices inside Indonesia, and it costs the same as the visa did. If your trip is planned at more than two months, the visa on arrival is the wrong instrument and you want a visitor visa arranged before travelling instead.
  • The Bali levy is not the visa and paying one does not cover the other. Bali charges arriving foreign visitors a provincial tourism levy that is collected separately from anything immigration does. It is small, it is paid to the province, and travellers regularly assume the visa fee included it. Budget for both if Bali is the destination rather than a connection.

Frequently asked questions

Do Luxembourg citizens need a visa for Indonesia?

Yes, a visa on arrival costing 500,000 rupiah for 30 days. It can also be bought online in advance as an e-VoA.

Why can I not find Luxembourg on Indonesia’s eligibility list?

It is there, named individually, but the list is published in Indonesian so the entry reads Luksemburg. A search for the English spelling returns nothing.

Can I extend the 30 days?

Once, for another 30 days and a further 500,000 rupiah. The e-VoA extension is lodged through the portal and a counter-bought visa through an immigration office, though an in-person biometric step may apply either way, so check the current instructions. Sixty days is the ceiling on this route.

Is the e-VoA different from the visa on arrival?

It is the same permission bought in advance on the official portal rather than at the airport counter. Same fee, same 30 days, no payment queue on arrival.

Does the visa cover the Bali tourism levy?

No. Bali collects a provincial levy from arriving foreign visitors separately from the visa. They are different charges to different bodies.
