Indonesia activates online arrival card


JAKARTA, 19 August 2025: Effective since Monday, 18 August 2025, Indonesia has implemented a new, integrated system for international arrivals called “All Indonesia”.

The new system is designed to streamline the entry process by combining several previously separate declarations into one single platform. Here’s what you need to know about the new procedure.

Integrated Platform: The “All Indonesia” application integrates declaration systems from various government bodies, including the Directorate General of Immigration, Customs (Ministry of Finance), Ministry of Health, and the Indonesian Quarantine Office.

Mandatory Pre-Arrival Completion: All international visitors are required to complete the passenger declaration form within this new system. It is compulsory to do so no later than three days before arriving in Indonesia.

Electronic Customs Declaration (E-CD): This is a key component of the new system. All travellers, regardless of nationality, must complete this electronic form to declare any items they are bringing into the country. The form includes personal and flight details, as well as a declaration of items such as electronics, cash, food, plants, and other restricted goods.

QR Code: Upon successful completion of the form, you will be issued a QR code. The QR code must be presented to authorities at the immigration checkpoint upon arrival. It is advisable to take a screenshot and save it offline, as airport Wi-Fi can be unreliable.

How to Access: The “All Indonesia” system can be accessed through its dedicated website: All Indonesia

The new system is designed to create a faster, paperless, and more efficient arrival experience for travellers by reducing the processing times at airports and enhancing public service efficiency.

It’s important to note that this new procedure is a customs and immigration formality and is separate from any visa requirements. Travellers may still need to arrange for a visa on arrival (VOA) or a different type of visa depending on their nationality and purpose of travel.

Thai Lion Air has issued an urgent announcement on its website on 13 August, advising passengers of the new requirement to complete the “All Indonesia” form before arriving in Indonesia.

The airline quoted a letter from Indonesia’s Director General of Air Transport (No AU.006/3/17/DAU/2025) regarding the official launch of the “All Indonesia” application on 18 August 2025 at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport, Jakarta.

The airline emphasised that all passengers are required to complete the “All Indonesia” form within three days before arrival in Indonesia.

The “All Indonesia” application integrates information notification systems from:

Department of Immigration;
Customs Department (Ministry of Finance);
Ministry of Public Health;
Indonesia’s Quarantine Office.

The Passenger Information Declaration Form in the application is available to all international flight passengers before they arrive in Indonesia, free of charge. The form can be downloaded at: All Indonesia
