Indonesia online visas for British citizens

Both the e-VOA and the Visitor Visa are Indonesian tourist visas. Both are single-entry permits, but there are some key differences:

If you’re travelling with a business e-VOA, you can attend business meetings, conventions, and exhibitions. You’re also allowed to visit production sites, and discuss, negotiate, and sign business contracts.

To sell goods or services, or to do paid work in Indonesia, you need a different type of visa, like a KITAS with a work permit.

The Indonesia e-VOA for UK citizens is typically issued as a single-entry visa, meaning it's valid for one entry into the country.

Both eVisa types can be extended, but for different lengths of time. An e-VOA can usually be extended once for an additional 30 days, whereas Visitor Visas can be extended twice for 60 days each time.
