All Indonesia card for families, kids and groups
Checked 5 November 2026 by Darius Cheung. Independent guide, not a government website.
Every traveller needs their own card, including children and infants. The site also has a group option, capped at 10 travellers, and each member's visa has to be confirmed. Families with young children should allow extra time on arrival: a September 2025 report said children under seven can't use the automatic gates, so the whole family queues for manual processing.
Each person has a card
Travel guides agree that children and infants need a card of their own. A baby's passport details go in just like an adult's, and the health and customs questions are answered on their behalf. That makes it the form's most time-consuming scenario: a family of four is four sets of passport details.
Using the group option
The site has a route for group applications, with its own summary and retrieve pages. What its text tells us:
- "The limit for group arrival applications is only 10 travellers." A larger party needs to split into several groups.
- "You have to select multiple traveller" appears if you try to file a group of one.
- "Please confirm your visa first to proceed with the next process." Each member has a visa confirmation step, under "Group Member Visa Confirmation".
If you register an account, you can save profiles: "Your profile data will be saved, and can be used for submission." That's handy for frequent travellers, but it does mean creating an account with a verification code by email.
We read these from the site's code and haven't filed a real group, since we don't submit test data to government forms. So we can't tell you whether group filing produces one code or several. Check that everyone is covered before you travel, and use the retrieve page if you're unsure.
Kids and the automatic gates
The West Australian reported in September 2025 that the QR process doesn't let children under seven through the automatic gates at Denpasar, so the whole family has to queue for manual processing, and that the separate facility had only two or three booths for hundreds of families. This comes from one unnamed source, it's over a year old, and the arrangement may have changed since. Still, it's worth building some time into your plans. Bring snacks.
Practical tips for filling it in for a family
- Lay out every passport first. Mixed-up numbers between family members are easy to make and hard to spot.
- Use one email you control. Children may not have one, and the QR code needs to reach you.
- Answer goods questions for what each person carries. Allowances are per passenger. The site notes that items exceeding "Maximum Allowance per Passenger" may be confiscated.
- Watch the health questions. They ask about symptoms and contacts, and each person's answers can differ.
- Check each child's passport expiry. Children's passports often run for less time than adults', and the form refuses an expired one.
- Do it within 72 hours, but not at the last minute. Four or more cards can take a while, especially if the site is slow.
