Hi all,

I am after some advice if you could please. I am bringing a school trip of around 20 pupils aged 13-15 to Bali next month. I question is whether we need visas to enter Bali? the pupils are mainly either Middle Eastern or else British.

Thanks.

Bali is not a country, however you may or may not require visas to visit Indonesia.

Erm.... ?? thanks for that Jackwow, As a Geography teacher, strangely I am aware of that fact. But thanks for the 'help'

Indonesia has a Visa on Arrival system (VOA). It costs US$25 and is for 30 days including the day of arrival. It is also extendable within Bali or any other Immigration office in major cities, for a further 30 days.

The visa is limited to some nationalities...British is OK but you should search any Indonesian Embassy website to see the qualified countries.

I live in Bali and would be happy to answer any questions.

Hi thanks Davita,

Most things we have covered.... I think! Just to check mid October, this would just about be the start of the rainy season yes?

Yes, they are expecting flooding and landslides but rain is much needed as the reservoirs that provide out electricity are drying up and possible power outage may happen.

The rain normally comes as storms....... than relent after maybe an hour.
