Indonesia has launched new measures for entry control and epidemic prevention, requiring all passengers entering the country to produce a vaccination certificate and a negative nucleic acid test (PCR) certificate within 3 days before departure (including holidays). After entering the country, they must stay in a quarantine hotel for 8 days. And received two PCR tests on the first day and the seventh day. Those who are positive must be admitted to the hospital for treatment.
According to the new measures, the expenses of Indonesian government officials and migrant workers staying in epidemic prevention hotels shall be borne by the government, and the rest of the tourists shall pay for themselves. Those who have a positive PCR test result must be admitted to the hospital for treatment. The government shall bear the expenses of Indonesian nationals and foreigners shall pay for themselves.
The Indonesian government also requires that all passengers entering the country must produce a certificate of complete vaccination, including paper and digital certificates. Indonesian travelers who have not been vaccinated before entering the country can be vaccinated after obtaining a PCR negative certificate during the isolation period.
Indonesia previously required entry quarantine for 5 days, while it was 14 days for having visited India. This policy was criticized for not being strict enough and there was a risk of epidemic prevention, so the above adjustments were made. However, ambassadors to Indonesia and their dependents of various countries can stay at home after entering the country. Officials at or above the ministerial level who enter the country with diplomatic or service passports, and those who enter through the tourism corridor agreement do not need to issue a vaccination certificate.
