In a bid to safeguard the natural beauty of Bali’s customs, traditions, arts, and local wisdom, the Bali Provincial government has implemented the International Tourism Levy. This initiative aims to contribute to the preservation and sustenance of the island’s unique cultural heritage while supporting its ongoing commitment to sustainable tourism.

Effective February 14, 2024, international tourists visiting Bali will incur a one-time fee of IDR 150,000 (USD 10). Tourists are encouraged to make the payment through the Love Bali website or App before arrival. A tourism levy voucher will be emailed, and tourists need to keep it on their smartphones for scanning at checkpoints in Bali Airport and sea ports.

Several visa categories are exempt from the fee, encompassing diplomatic and official visa holders, conveyance crew, KITAS and KITAP holders, family unification visas, golden and student visa holders, and specific non-tourist visa holders.

Applications for exemption must be submitted one month before arrival in Bali.
