HOW TO GET A BALI (INDONESIAN) VISA AS A NIGERIAN PASSPORT HOLDER – #SASSYFUNKE

I visited Bali early 2019 and had the best time of my life. I documented the experience on my various social media platforms and many people (especially Nigerians) reached out to me to find out how I got my visa to Bali as a Nigerian Passport holder. I had to confess that I used my British passport for entry as Nigerian passport holders do require a visa and the process is indeed VERY TEDIOUS after doing my research.

I called the Indonesian embassy in Abuja, Nigeria and reached out to the Indonesian embassy in London and below is the process to attain an Indonesian visa to visit Bali.

STEP 1

Nigerians need a telex visa approval (CALLING VISA) from the Indonesian Immigration Authority in Jakarta as a basis for the Embassy to issue you a visa.

STEP 2

To obtain a calling visa you must do so by contacting third party in Indonesia (a sponsor or a Visa Agent) in Indonesia that can apply for you online at: https://visaonline.imigrasi.go.id/online  (The sponsor could be a Indonesian national or an Indonesian company)

Once you have received the authorization then you can apply for a visa at your local consulate in Abuja  if you’re based in Nigeria. Here is the link for those in the UK https://consular.indonesianembassy.org.uk/visa/
