Uruguayan passport holders need an eVisa to enter Indonesia in 2026. The application is online, no embassy visit required. The eVisa covers tourism, business, and transit.
Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Indonesia e-Visa (eVisa)You need to get this visa online before you fly to Indonesia. Apply online before travel | Uruguayan passport holders must obtain an Indonesia e-Visa (eVisa) prior to arrival. The eVisa is valid for a single entry. Apply through the official Indonesian immigration website. Processing time and cost are not specified in the database; check the official site for current fees and processing times. | Required |
| Passport validityYour passport must not expire within 6 months of when you arrive in Indonesia. Minimum 6 months remaining | Your Uruguay passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended date of entry into Indonesia. | Required |
| Blank passport pagesYou need an empty page in your passport for the immigration officer to stamp. At least 1 blank page | Your passport must have at least 1 blank visa page (not including endorsement pages) for entry stamp. | Required |
| Return or onward ticketYou must show a flight ticket leaving Indonesia, usually within the visa validity period. Proof of onward travel | A return or onward ticket is required for entry. The database does not specify a minimum validity period; ensure you have a confirmed ticket out of Indonesia before your eVisa expires. | Required |
| Proof of sufficient fundsIt's a good idea to have proof you can pay for your trip, like a bank statement or cash. Financial means for stay | Proof of sufficient funds may be requested upon arrival. The database does not specify an amount; carry evidence of funds (e.g., bank statement, cash, credit card) to cover your stay. | Recommended |
| Arrival declarationYou do not need to fill out any special arrival form before landing. Not required | No arrival declaration (such as a customs or health form) is required based on the database. | Not required |
| Visa extensionYou cannot extend your stay; plan to leave on time. Not available | The eVisa for Uruguay passport holders is not extendable. You must leave Indonesia before the visa expires. | Not required |
eVisa is the only option for Uruguayans
Uruguay is not on the visa-free or visa-on-arrival list for Indonesia. You must apply for an eVisa before travel. No visa-free entry, no visa on arrival — plan ahead.
Passport validity is critical
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you enter Indonesia. Airlines check this before boarding. If your passport expires sooner, renew it first.
