Indonesia is overhauling its entry procedures for international travelers. Starting 1 September 2025, the government will begin rolling out the new All Indonesia Digital Arrival Card at key airports. From 1 October 2025, the requirement will extend to all international airports across the country. Eventually, land and sea border posts will also adopt the system, streamlining entry for millions of travelers each year.
What Is the All Indonesia Arrival Card?
The All Indonesia Digital Arrival Card is an online form that every foreign traveler must complete in addition to their visa (such as e-VoA, e-Visa, or visa-on-arrival). The new system consolidates data collection from immigration, customs, health, and quarantine into one platform, replacing multiple paper-based processes.
Rollout Schedule
- 1 September 2025: Launch at Jakarta (CGK), Bali (DPS), and Surabaya (SUB) international airports
- 1 October 2025: Expansion to all international airports, including Medan, Manado, Makassar, Sumatra, and Komodo
- From 1 October 2025: Expected rollout to land and sea border posts
How to Fill the Form
Travelers can complete the arrival card online up to 72 hours before entering Indonesia. The process is free and mandatory for all, including Indonesian nationals. Options include:
- Official website: allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id
- All Indonesia mobile app, available on iOS and Android
If you forget to complete the form in advance, you can still enter Indonesia by scanning a QR code at the airport and filling it out online before clearing customs and immigration.
Information Required for the Arrival Card
- Personal details: Full name, nationality, date of birth, passport number and expiry, contact details
- Travel plans: Arrival and departure dates, visa/KITAS/KITAP number (if applicable)
- Transport details: Airline, flight or vessel number, port or airport of entry
- Accommodation: Hotel name or residential address in Indonesia
- Declarations: Current health symptoms, countries visited, goods carried (plants, food, electronics), number of checked bags, IMEI numbers for phones and laptops
Other Forms Still Required
If arriving at an entry point not yet covered by All Indonesia, travelers must still complete:
- SATUSEHAT health declaration
- e-CD Customs form
Once the system is fully operational nationwide, these processes will merge into one seamless platform.
Why Complete the Form Early?
Completing the form before departure saves significant time at customs, immigration, and quarantine checkpoints. Travelers who wait until arrival may face longer delays while their details are processed at the airport.
Conclusion
The All Indonesia Digital Arrival Card represents a major step forward in simplifying entry procedures. For foreign travelers, the change is less about added complexity and more about preparation. Submitting the form in advance will help ensure faster processing and smoother entry into Indonesia from October 2025 onward.
