Cambodian passport holders can enter Indonesia without a visa for tourism, business, or social visits. You get a 30-day stay on arrival, and there's no visa fee. This policy is in effect for 2026.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay | Your passport needs at least 6 months of validity from your date of entry into Indonesia. Airlines check this before boarding — if your passport expires sooner, you'll be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Indonesia | Immigration officers at Jakarta, Bali, and other airports routinely ask for a return or onward ticket within 30 days. If you don't have one, they may deny entry or put you on the next flight out. | Required |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Immigration may ask where you're staying — have a hotel confirmation or a letter from your host ready. A simple booking printout or screenshot works fine. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Sufficient money for your stay | Officers occasionally ask to see cash or bank statements showing you can support yourself. Have at least $500 USD or equivalent in IDR available — credit cards are accepted but cash is preferred. | Recommended |
No extension possible
The 30-day visa-free stay cannot be extended. If you need more time, get a Visa on Arrival (VoA) at the airport instead — it costs 500,000 IDR and can be extended once.
Overstay fines are steep
Overstaying even one day costs 1,000,000 IDR (about $65 USD). Pay at immigration before your flight. Don't risk it — set a calendar reminder.
