I flew in with a group to Manado yesterday (7/7) and was a bit surprised to see the VOA fee has increased from $25 to $35. Just an FYI. Not sure when this changed but when I doubled-checked a few weeks ago, it seemed like it was still $25.
 
Apparently it was implemented on 3 or 4 July.
I spotted it on Facebook, one of the dive operators put up the notice.
Thanks for confirming that this has actually happened.
BUT I've just checked their website:
Visa on Arrival | Indonesian Embassy
And it seems like they have not yet updated the price yet.
 
Still a small price to pay to dive such a beautiful country IMO.
 
Here are the prices I was sent last night - depending on where you land/depart voa is now -

2. Domestic airport departure tax: varies IDR 75000 (Bali,) IDR 35000 (Manado,) IDR 50,000 (Makassar/UPG,) IDR 11000 (Sorong) (these must be paid in rupiah)
3. International Departure tax: IDR 200,000 (Bali): IDR 100,000 (Manado)
 
wingy,
that's airport tax, not VOA

Indeed you are right Wisnu, copied and pasted the wrong part of the email - thats what consecutive nights ship keeping while trying to work out a best route does to your brain.
 
I have seen the updated price on some operators Facebook pages!
