怎樣從新加坡去附近的印尼島嶼

多位北美和其它國家的朋友總是問我，怎樣從新加坡去周圍的印尼島嶼，去體驗不一樣的風情。有些印尼島嶼從新加坡座船也就一個小時，因為離新加坡很近，也不需要先簽證，消費又極其便宜。這裏是個信息供參考。上半部分是關於VISA情況。下半部分是新加坡的三個能去印尼各個島嶼的碼頭。更多地圖等在此不粘貼，到這裏去看吧: http://tour.comegoogle.com/indonesia/index.html

找了好久才找到這些資料。對不起大家的是沒時間把它翻譯過來。其實翻譯成中文到更難記了，我也翻譯不準確這些島嶼的中文名稱。

Go to Islands in Indonesia

important note!

The government of Indonesia has changed its visa policy for foreign tourists effective February 1st., 2004.

Entering Indonesia without any visa is possible now only for nationals of the following 11 countries and territories: Brunei Darussalam, Chile, Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia, Morocco, Peru, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

A Visa on Arrival (VoA) is available for nationals of the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and the United States of America. Citizens of these countries will be able to apply for a VoA valid for either 3 or 30 days upon arrival by air in Bali, Jakarta and a few other international airports or by ship at a limited number of Indonesian sea ports. A 3-day visa costs US$10 and a 30-day visa costs US$25. Travelers from the above countries must be in posession of a passport which is valid for at least 6 months from the date of arrival and the completed embarkation/disembarkation card. They must also be able to prove they have sufficient funds for their stay in Indonesia.

Arriving travelers with Visa-On-Arrival status have to go first to one of the 'VoA Counters' to pay the appropriate fee and have their passports stamped with the VoA before proceeding to the Immigration Clearance Desk. An official bank is part of the VoA service counters. Payment of visa fees can only be made in US dollar bank notes, Indonesian Rupiah equivalent or by VISA or MASTERCARD.

Citizens of countries neither on the VoA nor Visa-Free lists are required to apply for a visa overseas before travelling to Indonesia. In Singapore, the Indonesian embassy can be found on 7 Chatsworth Road, Singapore 249761 Tel:[phone] , Fax:[phone]. Opening Hours: Mon-Thu 8.30 am - 1.00 pm; 2.00 pm - 5.00 pm; Fri 8.30 am - 12.30 pm; 2.30 pm - 5.00 pm
