Bali Passports & Visa Info
You must have a passport valid for at least 6-months & an outward bound ticket to be allowed in Indonesia. Most international citizens can get a Visa on Arrival at the Denpaser airport for US $25, good for 30 days. Exact USD$ change is required. DO NOT TAKE THE CHEAPER VISA, its only for 10days. If you want to stay longer, apply for a 60-day tourist visa at your closest embassay/consulate. Members of ASEAN countries do not need a visa.

Denpasar - Your Point of Entry

The international airport in Bali is often referred to as Denpasar (DPS is the airport code). Ngurah Rai airport is actually located in Tuban which is two miles south of Kuta beach, eight miles SW of Denpasar & one hour South of Ubud.

Arriving at Denpasar on an international flight you’ll get channeled through into a long hallway to the sound of gamelan music. Processing can take a while but when you reach the counter there isn’t much hassle as most of the people coming through are package tourists and travelers. Another 10 yards and you’re out into the street and the humid air hits you. There will be no shortage of taxis waiting to drive you to Kuta or wherever you want to go and these are usually affordable though it’s best to ask inside the airport what the going rate is.

If need be, see the airport website here: http://www.angkasapura1.co.id/eng/location/bali.htm

Bali Banking

The exchange rate is approximately Rp.9,100 = US$1.00. Basically, things cost a lot less in Bali. You can use AMEX Travellers Checks or Cash (make sure its bills over the year 2000 and clear/crisp). There are ATM's all over the place that take Cirrus and Plus. PLEASE tell your bank and credit card companies the dates that you will be in Bali or elsewhere, as they might cut off your funds for fraud protection if they don't know it is you. Asia loves Visa or Master card.

Bali Weather
Generally the Ubud area of Bali has warm, sunny days (90 degrees) and cools off at night. Rain is frequent but usually light and of short duration.

Bali Clothing
Your rooms and the hotel are air conditioned. But it is hot outside. Bathing suits, bug repellant & sunblock are a good idea. Good walking sandals are a must. Bermuda shorts or pedal pushers are a good idea. A light folding umbrella wouldn't hurt either. Bring a nice yoga mat or buy one at the Balispirit Yoga Shop. BALI IS A SHOPPING HEAVEN! Get ready.

Medical in Bali
There are plenty of international medical clinics in Bali - especially in Ubud and outside of Kuta. Since the Bali Bombing, the Indonesian government spent $$ on improving the local hospitals and many more private ones have opened since. If you have a minor illness or ailment, you will be just fine. These clinics usually do not accept health insurance, but they do not cost much. Should you need specialized care in a dire emergency, you would need to be evacuated to Singapore. For this trip, Its best that you buy travelers health insurance with evacuation coverage. Check out SOS international medical clinic.

Immunizations for Bali
You will be traveling in civilized, built up areas; so even though your doctor may suggest all kinds of things for traveling in the jungle, please impress upon s/he that you are staying in nice resorts and eating at good restaurants.
*As recommended by Meghan Pappenheim, an American resident of Bali: There is no Malaria, Rabies, Encephalitus or Polio on the island of Bali. A Tetanus shot is a good idea. You do not need Malaria Medication, as malaria is a rarity in Bali. You might want to bring a prescription of Keflex, or another type of oral antibiotic that can help with stomach ailments. Even though you will be eating in good restaurants, there is always a chance that you can get Bali Belly - a mild dysentery that passes in a few days.
