Overstay penalties in Indonesia (Bali)
- 1,000,000 IDR for each day of overstay, payable before departure.
- Overstays beyond 60 days move out of the fine regime into deportation and blacklisting.
- Blacklisted travellers are refused entry on arrival, including for transit.
- Immigration checks in Bali have tightened, and enforcement now includes residence sweeps.
How to avoid an overstay
- Start the visa-on-arrival extension about a week before the 30-day stamp expires.
- Confirm the exact expiry printed on the stamp — it can differ from 30 days after landing.
- Keep proof of payment for any extension; disputes at departure are common without it.

Frequently asked questions
How much is the Bali overstay fine?
1,000,000 IDR per day. It is charged for every calendar day past your permitted stay and settled before you are allowed to depart.
What happens if I overstay in Indonesia by more than 60 days?
Overstays over 60 days are handled as deportation cases rather than fines, and normally come with blacklisting that blocks future entry.
Penalty amounts and entry-ban lengths change. Treat this as a planning reference and confirm the current position with Indonesia (Bali)’s immigration authority or your embassy before acting on it.
