2022 latest Indonesian tourism landing tips, do not have to get together in Thailand
At this stage, you don't have to get together in Thailand to go abroad, and I highly recommend Indonesia. The advantage of taking Indonesia as the first country to start is very obvious, the first visa on arrival is directly given for 30 days, and the 30 expiration can be renewed for another 30 days. Thailand only gives a maximum of 15 days, and the 15-day expiry must be rolled out (30 days from October 2022 but only until April 2023). About 400 YUAN per visa on arrival in Thailand and 260 RMB in Indonesia. From Indonesia to other countries, because the Indonesian capital Jakarta is across the sea diagonally across the coast is Kuala Lumpur, which is the base camp of AirAsia, we all know that AirAsia is a well-known low-cost airline in Asia, and it is convenient and cheap to take AirAsia to most places in Asia.
Indonesia has received three doses of vaccines and does not have any requirements for COVID-19 prevention (nucleic acid testing, isolation, etc.). Only those who have received two needles or less are required to isolate. I was presented to the staff before boarding the plane in Thailand with a three-shot vaccination certificate (which can also be an electronic version), and when I actually arrived at the Bali immigration hall, the staff did not look at it at all.
Indonesia implements visas on arrival for Chinese tourists, and visa exemptions for some countries such as Malaysia, so don't be confused. The policy of the visa on arrival is 30 days, and if you want to extend it 7 days before expiration, you can extend it to the IMMIGRATION Office for another 30 days.
Return tickets (or tickets to third countries), such as domestic or Hong Kong and Macao airports, basically there will be requirements to check before boarding, it is best to purchase in advance. If you plan to postpone it, you can purchase it within 60 days after one month. However, at the Bali Immigration Hall, staff also do not check return tickets.
At this stage, due to the global epidemic situation, travel to Indonesia requires downloading an APP called "PeduliLindungi", installing it on the mobile phone before departure, and then registering an account to register personal information. All the functions in the APP are all ignored, it is designed for Indonesians and cannot be used by international tourists.
It doesn't matter if you change the Indonesian currency before departure, the Indonesian airport entry visa fee can be swiped by credit card, yes, no cash.
Finally, the Indonesian border inspection random inspection is relatively strict, and it is very relaxed after passing through the first pass (payment on arrival) and the second pass (brushing passport fingerprints). Finally, the luggage went through the security check, and then the border inspectors randomly checked the tourists, and the ones who were selected were strictly checked, and those who were not drawn left. I was ground at the scene for ten minutes, and the three groups of border inspectors at Bali Airport conducted spot checks on tourists, asking them to open their luggage and ask in English what their occupation was, what they were doing in Indonesia, where they were going from where they were going, and so on. This step may be the reason for the Indonesian "checkpoint" that is now rumored in China. But in fact, it is not aimed at Chinese tourists, I saw at the scene next to the past European and American tourists are also called over, the probability of inbound passengers being drawn I estimate that there are 40% to 50%, the lottery to open all the luggage, ask this and that, but after asking all let go. If domestic tourists coming to Indonesia are unable to answer the English questions of the border inspectors, the border inspectors may be suspicious. This is also the so-called "customs clearance" to Indonesia. If you comply with the legal and normal response, there is no such thing as a "checkpoint".
