Current Travel Situation
Ukraine to Indonesia: What You Need to Know
Indonesia is a sprawling archipelago of over 17,000 islands, with Bali being the most popular destination for Ukrainian travelers. Indonesia has maintained strict neutrality on the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The Visa on Arrival is available at major entry points including Bali Ngurah Rai Airport (DPS), Jakarta Soekarno-Hatta (CGK), and several others. Alternatively, apply for the Indonesian eVisa in advance through molina.imigrasi.go.id to avoid queues on arrival.
How to Get There
Indonesian airlines Garuda and Lion Air serve Jakarta from European hubs. From Warsaw (WAW), connections via Singapore (SIN), Dubai (DXB), or Istanbul (IST) to Bali (DPS) or Jakarta (CGK) are most common. Flight time from Warsaw is approximately 14-18 hours including transit.
Money & Banking
Indonesia uses the Indonesian Rupiah (IDR). ATMs are widely available in Bali and Jakarta. Dynamic currency conversion on ATMs often gives poor rates; choose to be charged in IDR. Carry some USD for the VoA fee; exchange the rest to IDR at money changers (authorized ones offer better rates than banks).
Practical Tips
Having USD 50 in cash is important, as ATMs may not always be accessible before the immigration counter. Most entry points accept USD; some also accept EUR.
