Indonesia Will Require an Arrival Card from All International Travelers

Starting September 1, 2025, all international travelers heading to Indonesia will need to fill out the new “All Indonesia” Arrival Card before they arrive. This digital form will make it easier for travelers to provide important information and speed up the processing time at airports.

What is the “All Indonesia” Arrival Card?

The “All Indonesia” Arrival Card is an electronic arrival card that Indonesia now requires from all inbound travelers. This digital arrival form serves as a unified online travel declaration that Indonesia uses to centralize entry procedures.

Key facts about the system:

• Purpose: The card replaces separate paper forms for immigration, customs, health, and quarantine. It acts as a single point of data entry for all authorities involved in border control.
• Integration: The platform connects Immigration, Customs, and Health Quarantine (CIQ) processes. You enter your details once. All relevant agencies receive the information instantly.
• Digital Portal: The official website, allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id, offers a secure portal for submission. The site guides you through each step and confirms your declaration electronically.
