eVOA vs other visas Understand the scope of Indonesia Visitor Visa / eVOA file preparation and avoid mixing it with business, work, long-stay, or other e-Visa categories. What this guide set covers
The public Visitor Visa page and the account registration page use overlapping but not identical upload instructions. These articles keep the differences visible so applicants can check the actual screen before submission.
- Visitor Visa / eVOA requests list a full passport bio page image, a passport-size photograph, an email address, and a payment card.
- The Visitor Visa FAQ states JPG/JPEG/PNG and a maximum 200KB for both passport bio page and photograph.
- The registration page describes a recent color softcopy photo, front-facing, 4 x 6 cm, at least 400 x 600 px, in JPEG/JPG/PNG.
- Another registration help block shows a 2MB maximum, so applicants should follow the latest limit displayed in the actual application step.
- This app prepares image files only. It does not decide visa type, submit applications, or act for Indonesian immigration authorities.
FAQ
Which file-size limit should I trust if one page says 200KB and another says 2MB?
Treat the current upload field in your own application as the deciding screen. For Visitor Visa / eVOA preparation, keeping both the face photo and passport image under 200KB is the conservative approach described in the public FAQ.
Can the app choose my Indonesia visa type?
No. These pages focus on file preparation for Visitor Visa / eVOA-style uploads. Visa category, eligibility, payment, and submission decisions must be checked in the Indonesia eVisa portal.
What photo size does Indonesia eVisa / eVOA need?
The registration screen describes a 4 x 6 cm photo at least 400 x 600 px in JPEG/JPG/PNG. Keep the face centered with enough margin so it can be cropped to that ratio.
Does the background have to be white?
Use a plain light or white background with no shadows, patterns, or other people. A real clean wall photographed under even light is safer than digital background replacement.
What should the passport bio page image look like?
Capture the full bio page in sharp, even light with no glare across the MRZ or photo. All text and the machine-readable zone must stay readable after export and compression.
Can I take both the face photo and passport image with an iPhone?
Yes. Use the rear camera, keep the document flat and the face front-facing, and check the exported files by zooming in rather than trusting only the preview.
How recent must the photo be?
Use a recent photo that still looks like you. The registration guidance asks for a recent color softcopy photo, so avoid reusing old images that no longer match your appearance.
Does preparing the files here guarantee acceptance?
No. The app only prepares image files. Acceptance, visa issuance, and entry decisions are made by the Indonesian immigration authorities through the official portal.
