Ensuring all hands on deck hold the right entry status is paramount — and rarely as simple as it looks.
Foreign crew arriving in Indonesia use the same public entry routes as other visitors, but a working roster brings added considerations: length of stay, professional purpose, crew changes and the vessel’s own permits. We facilitate the appropriate pathway for each crew member and keep the whole roster compliant from arrival to departure.
Which route fits your crew
For short cruising visits, crew typically enter on the Visa on Arrival or e-VOA — thirty days, extendable once. Where the stay is longer, or the purpose extends beyond tourism into professional work or vessel management, a pre-arrival visit visa is the correct route. We assess each crew member individually and recommend the cleanest pathway.
One roster, one file
Rather than treating each passport in isolation, we manage your crew as a single coordinated file — aligned with the owner and captain visas and the vessel’s cruising and clearance documents — so nothing falls out of step as your itinerary unfolds.
Crew documents
A short list per person — we confirm the exact requirements for your roster.
Crew changes mid-voyage are handled separately — see Yacht Crew Change Bali.
