The rise and fall of COVID-19 are indeed unpredictable. Recovering our courage to travel has not been an easy journey. For travel enthusiasts, the dilemma has always been, “When do we get to be enjoying our pastimes fully without the worry of travel-shaming”. As much as you wish to be a good citizen and participate in lowering the potential spread of the virus, we understood how much you also want to travel at ease. Moreover, travel is not just meant for leisure. Sometimes, it is also necessary for your work or a reunion with your family. In these tough times, we have no other choice but to learn to live with it. What matter is for us to practice the best precautions recommended to stay safe once we leave our doorstep. Traveling does not have to be cut out from your life pursuit. After all, it is good for your mental health to break free from the stress after feeling disconnected from the outside world for over two years. We just need to remain careful about how we are going to do it. #1 Don’t travel when you feel sick at all cost You might need to take into consideration not traveling when you have a fever, experience nausea, and don’t feel fit at all. Traveling by air, land, or sea intensifies your condition. Moreover, it is also easy for you to transfer your illness to others, especially in poor-ventilated spaces. If you are purchasing an airline ticket, make sure to add travel insurance. Once it is getting harder for you to travel, you might inform your airlines sooner and thus, receive a refund. #2 Travel safety tips on public transportations Several precautions you can practice to stay away from the virus you likely catch from others around you in any forms of public transportations such as airplane, bus, train, taxi, and many others, such as: keep your distance from others, implement double masking, prevent touching your nose, eyes, and mouth, and try to hold your hunger or thirst so you can use your mask effectively the whole ride. Also, if you touch surfaces on public transportation, apply your hand sanitizer (with a minimum of 60% alcohol) or wash your hands in a nearby bathroom. #3 Get full doses of the COVID-19 vaccine in addition to the booster CDC highly recommends a COVID-19 vaccine to lower the spread and enhance your immunity. Moreover, getting vaccinated makes the case if you wish to travel comfortably. Vaccine certification has become one of the main entry requirements to create safe spaces for citizens in all countries. Besides, COVID-19 vaccines, there are also other types of vaccination that will be beneficial to induce a safe traveling experience in a tropical country like Indonesia. #4 Choose your destinations wisely Ensure you know the situation happening in the country you are about to visit. Keep yourself updated with the COVID-19 case before deciding to go. Select destinations that let you outdoor rather than in a space with poor ventilation. Never let your guard down when it comes to health protocols. Better preventing than spending an arm and a leg on your medical bills. #5 Opt for contactless payment Contactless payment has been an effective adoption for businesses to run during the coronavirus pandemic. Until now, digital payment in the form of e-wallets and m-banking continues to thrive in bringing convenience from booking accommodations, purchasing goods or services, and many others. Not only does it help you in minimizing physical contact, but it is also easier in case you do not bring enough cash or small change. #6 Bring your over-the-counter medicines and vitamins Include over-the-counter medicines and vitamins when preparing for your international trip. They are great additions to build your body protection and become the first aid to any kind of illnesses you might encounter. Basically, you want to be all geared up, especially if you are not sure of the availability of a medical clinic there. Some of them include anti-diarrheal medication, antacid medication for stomachache or heartburn, a medicine containing antihistamine for allergies, motion sickness relief, cough drops, pain and fever medicine, decongestant, and mild laxative. Do yourself a favor by reminding these travel safety tips anytime We wish you a fun travel journey.

How long does the permit last? The durations a temporary stay permit can cater to are 2 years, 1 year, 6 months, 90 days, and 30 days. All are extendable except for a 30-day temporary stay permit. The consideration as published in the official platform of the Directorate General of Immigration is mainly because the foreign national who wishes to apply for this permit does not intend to stay longer than 30 days in Indonesia. Types of KITAS Yes, there are certain activities that determine which type suits your duration of stay in Indonesia. In general, those who desire extensive stay periods of 6 months to 2 years usually come from: A married couple of a foreign national and an Indonesian citizen A child from a legal marriage of a foreign national and an Indonesian citizen A return of an Indonesian citizen from a foreign country he used as a place of residence Ex-Indonesian citizen Foreign elderly tourists Investors, clergies, experts, and students enrolling for formal education in Indonesia While those who prefer the 30 days to 90 days for their temporary stay permit often base their arrival in the context of: Conducting an activity related to their profession and receiving some sort of payment Having a permit given by a local authority to make commercial films Performing quality control of goods Conducting an audit for a company branch situated in Indonesia Performing after-sales service Performing installation or reparation for machines Carrying out non-permanent construction works Participating in or holding a sport and art performances Providing medical treatments A prospective foreign national who is under working probation Requirements in applying for electronic KITAS On May 2, 2016, the Directorate General of Immigration has innovated on a bestowal of an electronic temporary stay permit that a foreign national with a temporary stay visa can apply for online at Pelaporan KITAS’ website . To receive the permit, one should prepare his passport and visa. You will be asked to input your remaining home address and the numbers from both your visa and passport. The applicant will receive an email informing the date to visit the Immigration Office and proceed with the non-tax revenue (PNPB) payment processing, photo-taking, biometrics, and interviews. Your permit will be sent in a form of a pdf by email. Non-tax revenue, in this case, has already included the fees for your permit, the re-entry permit, and administration. e-KITAS, is it safe from counterfeit? e-KITAS is relatively safe from counterfeit because it is already secured with a QR code that serves as an encrypted unique code for the applicant. Those are the things you should know if you are about to register for a temporary stay permit in Indonesia.

No More Self Quarantine for Visitors in Bali from March 7, 2022
E – VISA INFO APPLY NOW Wednesday, March 9 2022 12:00 WITA – No More Self Quarantine for Visitors in Bali from March 7, 2022 No More Self Quarantine for Visitors in Bali from March 7, 2022 Bali is welcoming a new era after above 2 years of striving with the significant decline of the tourism sector during the pandemic. Self quarantine is now officially out of the trend! Isn’t it amazing to hear? To answer the demand of the market insisting on relaxation on entry requirements, Bali finally arrives at the year to recover and turn around their economic situation. Bali can use these opportunities to create more business and job opportunities from March 7, 2022. The Agenda for No More Self Quarantine Is Brought Forward 7 Days Earlier The outbreak of COVID-19 forced Indonesia to implement strict entry requirements to keep the virus at bay. However, their tourism industry, as a result, has been seriously battered. Starting from March 7, Bali launched their latest travel regulation, self quarantine free for foreign visitors! The agenda is supposed to be on March 14, what’s the rush? According to Indonesia’s Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy, Sandiaga Uno, the Government executes the policy 7 days earlier after tough considerations. However, this, of course, has been supported by reliable data and advice from experts. The Background Sandiaga Uno stated in an interview with CNN Indonesia that the citizens in Bali have got adequate immunity to tackle the high-risk transmission of COVID-19. Over 90% of the citizens have gotten their second jab of vaccine (the highest in any part of Indonesia). Moreover, Bali’s Provincial Government committed to working on booster vaccine distribution is above 30%. Wayan Koster in his statement added that from a total of 2.909 visitors coming to Bali from the period of February 30 – March 6, 2022, only 16 people were COVID-19 positive. That means less than 1% of transmission. Green zones are also available far and wide in Bali. Furthermore, he mentioned that the first dose of vaccine has reached 104%. The second dose with 94%, and the booster vaccine with 22.3%. Bali’s Preparations for Free Self Quarantine Starting from March 7, 2022 Following the instruction of Indonesia’s President, Joko Widodo, simulation has all been geared up to ensure everything works to perfection. All processes are conducted hand in hand by the local Government in Bali as well as the Central Government. This stage includes the preparation of a new circular letter, international health protocols, new visa policy, airline and airport readiness, transportation from the airport to hotels, campaigns to promote no self quarantine policy, and booster vaccine acceleration up to 30%. To monitor the running of the policy to allow for further evaluation and adjustment in case there is a spike of cases after its implementation, the Government also puts these into priority: The visitors’ commitment to comply with the advice to install PeduliLindungi, The readiness for hospitals in Bali to supply the best healthcare services, For accommodations in Bali to be equipped with the special task force and see the health protocols are well-observed. This is to make sure that we can anticipate the worst cases yet to come with a proper scheme to perform. Despite the No Self Quarantine Policy, Tourists Still Submit the Documents as Required Other than quarantine and the reopening of visa on arrival, it is still necessary for tourists to: Fully vaccinated and got their booster vaccine, Giving a receipt of the accommodation they have booked, Ensuring their travel insurance, Showing their negative PCR test result taken before their departure, Retake PCR once arrived at the airport and wait until the result is out in 1×24 hours. If the tourist is COVID-19 positive, they have no other option but to carry out self quarantine on their reserved accommodation (aimed for those with mild symptoms). Else, they have to migrate to appointed hospitals along with the task force (for patients with heavy symptoms). If the policy turns out successful, the Central Government will consider applying it to other provinces in Indonesia.
