Indonesia visa requirements for French citizens

French citizens can obtain a visa on arrival, but the most convenient option is the Indonesia Visa (eVOA), which allows you to apply online before traveling and avoid queues at the airport.

iVisa offers three Indonesian entry documents for French travelers:

  • Indonesia Visa (eVOA): The most common option for short tourism trips. It allows stays of up to 30 days, with the possibility to extend once for another 30 days. It is valid for 90 days after issue and is typically single-entry.

  • Indonesia Tourist Visit Visa (C1 or B211A Visa): Designed for longer stays or travelers who need more flexibility. It allows longer durations depending on the visa type and approval.

  • Indonesia Tourist Visa: A general visa option for travelers who do not qualify for the eVOA or need different travel conditions.

General Indonesian entry requirements for French travelers are:

  • France passport valid for at least six months
  • Approved Indonesia eVOA or other visa
  • Confirmed return or onward flight ticket
  • Proof of accommodation (hotel booking or invitation letter)
  • Evidence of sufficient funds for the duration of the stay
  • Other supporting documents, depending on purpose/situation

Indonesia visa FAQs

What French travelers commonly ask about Indonesia visas

Yes, French citizens need a visa to enter Indonesia, but the process is simple and flexible. Most travelers opt for the Indonesia eVOA, which can be applied for online before departure or obtained on arrival.

The eVOA is usually processed quickly, often within 24 hours. While faster processing options may be available, applying at least a day before travel is the safest approach to ensure your approval is ready in time.

With an eVOA, French travelers can stay in Indonesia for up to 30 days. This can typically be extended once for another 30 days, allowing a maximum stay of up to 60 days if needed.

The eVOA is ideal for short, uncomplicated trips and is the quickest option to obtain. Other visas, such as the Tourist Visit Visa (C1 or B211A), are better suited to longer stays or specific travel needs and may require additional steps during the application process.

Yes, but only once under the eVOA. You can apply for a 30-day extension through Indonesian immigration authorities. If you plan to stay longer than 60 days, you’ll need to apply for a different visa type before traveling.

No. While the eVOA allows you to travel to Indonesia, entry is ultimately decided by immigration officers. You may be asked to show proof of onward travel, accommodation, or sufficient funds upon arrival.
