People also ask
How long can Canadian citizens stay in Indonesia?
The dataset records a visa on arrival for this corridor, not a fixed day count — the stay is set by the visa issued at the border. Confirm current terms on imigrasi.go.id.
Can Canadian citizens extend a stay in Indonesia?
Extensions are decided by the Indonesian Directorate General of Immigration, not by the entry rule itself, and policies shift without much notice. Check imigrasi.go.id for what is currently possible — don't plan around an extension you haven't confirmed.
Do I need an onward ticket to enter Indonesia?
Possibly — proof of onward travel is a routine airline and border check that sits outside the visa dataset on this page. Confirm on travel.gc.ca and with your carrier before booking a one-way ticket.
What happens if Canadian citizens overstay in Indonesia?
Overstaying any permitted stay can mean fines, deportation or future entry bans — the specifics are set by the Indonesian Directorate General of Immigration and are not part of this dataset. If you're close to the limit, check imigrasi.go.id for exact consequences and options.
