Indonesia Digital Nomad Visa (E33) 2026

Indonesia launched its digital nomad visa (E33) to capitalize on the Bali boom, and it remains a top pick in 2026. The visa requires an income of at least $5,000 per month and allows a 12-month stay, with the possibility of extension. Tax-wise, if you stay in Indonesia for more than 183 days, you become a tax resident and are liable for progressive tax (5-35%) on worldwide income – but the first $50,000 of foreign income is often exempted under certain conditions. Bali offers an unmatched lifestyle with its temples, beaches, and vibrant digital nomad community. Co-working spaces in Canggu and Ubud are world-famous.
