Documents Indonesia asks Nepali applicants for

• Passport bio-page scan (6+ months validity, 1 blank page) — JPG/JPEG/PNG max 200 KB.
• Passport-style colour photograph — JPG/JPEG/PNG max 200 KB, white background.
• Email address (account verification within 1 hour)
• Visa / MasterCard / JCB credit / debit card
• Confirmed return / onward airline ticket
• Hotel booking / accommodation proof
• Travel itinerary
• Bank statement (last 3 months, USD 2,000 / NPR 3 lakh balance)

Proof of funds for the Indonesia comparison visa

Indonesia expects Bank statement (last 3 months) showing minimum USD 2,000 (≈ NPR 3 lakh / 3,00,000) closing balance for this class. As a Nepali applicant, show a 3–6 month bank statement plus income proof matched to your source: salary slips and an employer/leave letter if you're employed, business registration (PAN/VAT) and tax clearance if self-employed, or a sponsor's bank statement and a notarised sponsorship letter if someone funds your trip. Money that lands suddenly just before you apply is a common refusal trigger — keep the balance steady for months.

Processing time, validity & extension

Plan for 5–10 working days once Indonesia has a complete file. The visa is valid 90 days from issuance to enter and lets you stay 60 days per entry; extendable twice in Indonesia for 60 days each (180 days max total) (Single). Apply at least 3–4 weeks before departure; festivals and embassy holidays in both countries can stretch the window. If you need longer in Indonesia, ask about the in-country extension rule before your stay expires — overstaying jeopardises every future application.

Before you apply: the Nepal-side prep

Every Nepali-language document — citizenship certificate, birth or marriage certificate, property papers, income proof — must be submitted with a notary-certified English translation. Carry the original plus one photocopy of each, and make sure your name is spelled identically everywhere: passport, ticket, hotel booking and bank statement. A single mismatch is enough to trigger a query.

Why Indonesia files get refused — and how to avoid it

• Inconsistent funds — a balance that jumps right before applying.
• Missing translations — Nepali documents submitted without certified English versions.
• Mismatched dates — the flight, hotel and itinerary don't line up.
• Weak ties to Nepal — no job, study, property or family pull to return to.
• Wrong visa class — applying as a tourist for a work or study purpose.
