Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you land in Indonesia, not from your departure date. If it expires sooner, renew it before applying for the eVisa.
eVisa is not extendable
The standard eVisa for Pakistan passport holders allows a 30-day stay and cannot be extended. Plan your trip accordingly, or look into other visa options if you need more time.
