The rule is you need a PCR test that was taken 48hr or less from your flight departure time. So for example if your flight is as 13:00 on Wednesday you need a negative test that was taken any time after 13:00 Monday



If you are flying international into Jakarta you will need a "valid" PCR test. Right now as of 15 Dec. Indonesia considered an international travel PCR test "valid" if its was taken with in the last 7 days. Right now they also do not require quarantine but it is recommended.

I know someone that just flew into Indonesia couple weeks ago from Sweden to do a CCR course with a friend of mine and he said it was very easy all they did was look at his PCR test when he landed and then check it again for the domestic flight from Jakarta to Lombok.

I just left Indonesia couple weeks ago for a work contract else where in the world and just needed a PCR test that was done within 72hr of my flight this was a Singapore Airline requirement. I will be heading back to Indonesia in a couple months for another diving trip hopefully by then with this vaccine coming out things will open up more and I can just enter on a simple VOA and not have to do the the B211A visa shenanigan's although with the new E-visa system its supposed to be a lot easier and quicker than it was be for.

Garuda has listed all the travel rules out very nicely https://www.garuda-indonesia.com/id/en/news-and-events/kebijakan-operasional-terkait-covid19
14 days self quarantine is an obligation.
 
How about those who have been inoculated with the vaccine?
Do they have to get a certificate to proof that?
And who is going to authenticate and recognize the cert?
 
Happy to know you are claiming a business visa to go on a pleasure trip.
And people wonder why Covid keeps spreading.....

Well Indonesia has no idea how many people with local infections are around. Taiwan just banned people living Indonesia entering Taiwan as there are lots of contract workers from there who as supposed to be tested before being allowed to fly to Taiwan. Last flight every worker had the Wuhan Virus. So now Taiwan has made tests required and if you now arrive in Taiwan and have the Wuhan Virus you will be fined as well.

The useless HKSAR Gov should learn it from Republic of China(Taiwan). But the administration is just plain STUPID.
So many Philippines DH arrived found to be infected even they possessed paper indicated that they have been tested -ve.

Same when people from Philippines flew to Taiwan, get tested on arrival and find they too are infected but have so called papers claiming to be clear. Would not be surprised if Taiwan bans people from entering from Philippines soon.
 
We are still importing the illness from non resident , not just Philippines, nearly everyday and the useless HKSAR has no intention to stop it!
