Process

Before the start of the semester abroad at Udayana University respectively at ISI Denpasar in Indonesia, the corresponding visa must usually be applied for on the website of the Indonesian embassy in your home country.

Due to the Covid pandemic, all travel, entry and visa regulations are subject to continuous changes and may change at any time. Only the websites of the Indonesian Immigration Service and the respective missions abroad of Indonesian embassies and consulates (see sbove) are valid sources of information for up-to-date information.

studiesNetwork recommends applying for a 211 Visit Visa!
However, if there are delays or very short-term registrations for a semester abroad, or if you want to travel from or to Indonesia more often, you can also apply for a Visa On Arrival or a Tourist Visa.
