Planning your trip to Bali? 🌴
Before packing your bags or exchanging your cash, there’s one important rule every traveler must know:
💭 How much money can I legally bring into Bali?
Indonesia has official currency declaration rules — and understanding them will keep your entry smooth and stress-free.
Many travelers don’t realize that Indonesia has strict regulations regarding how much cash you can bring into the country.
At Ngurah Rai International Airport, officers may ask you to declare your money if it exceeds a certain amount.
I’ve seen tourists confused because they carried too much cash without knowing the rules.
To help you avoid issues, here is the clear, updated guideline for 2025.
✅ 1️⃣ How Much Money Can You Bring Into Bali?
According to Indonesian customs regulations:
You can bring up to Rp100,000,000 (100 million IDR) or the equivalent in foreign currency without declaring it.
If you carry more than 100 million IDR worth of currency, you must declare it to customs upon arrival.
Failure to declare can result in:
- ❌ Money confiscation
- ❌ Fines
- ❌ Legal consequences
✅ 2️⃣ How Much Foreign Currency Can You Bring?
The rule applies to all currencies, including:
- AUD 🇦🇺
- USD 🇺🇸
- EUR 🇪🇺
- SGD 🇸🇬
- MYR 🇲🇾
Example:
If you bring $6,400 USD, that equals approx 100 million IDR — anything above that requires declaration.
✅ 3️⃣ Should You Bring Cash or Exchange in Bali?
Most travelers bring $300–$1,000 USD/AUD and exchange the rest inside Bali for better rates.
💡 Why?
Bali money changers often offer better rates than banks or airports in Australia.
