Indonesia visa on arrival (e-VOA): not eligible for Algerians
Last verified: June 2026 (imigrasi.go.id source)
Can an Algerian get a visa on arrival (e-VOA) for Indonesia?
No. Algeria is not on Indonesia's e-VOA list. A 2015 waiver included Algeria, but it was suspended during COVID (2022) and never restored. Relying on the e-VOA leads to denied boarding or entry. The correct route is the e-Visa C1 (formerly B211A), applied for online and in advance. OuiVisa handles it.
