🇸🇿Eswatini Visa for Indonesian Citizens2026 Requirements, Fees & Documents

e-Visa30 days max stay

Indonesian passport holders can apply online for a Eswatini e-Visa before travel. Unlike an eTA, this is an actual visa — just issued digitally — so no embassy visit is needed for eligible short-term visits. Eligibility and covered purposes vary, so check the conditions below.

Tourist and business eVisa available via official portal evisa.gov.sz (Ministry of Home Affairs). Valid for single entry within 90 days of issuance; allows stay of up to 30 days. Processing time 2-5 business days (some sources cite 5-15 business days). eVisa must be obtained before travel. Visa on arrival has been suspended following the eVisa system launch. The Ministry of Home Affairs also offers Student and Transit eVisa categories. No official list of eligible countries or fee schedule was found on the evisa.gov.sz portal as of June 2026.
