๐ฌ๐ฒ Does a Gambian need a visa for Indonesia ๐ฎ๐ฉ?
Yes. Gambian passport holders need a visa for Indonesia, applied for at an embassy or consulate of Indonesia before travelling.
Rule updated from Wikipedia's โVisa requirements for Gambian citizensโ (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed e-Visa. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Indonesia or its official government website before you travel.
What this means for your trip
You apply at an embassy, consulate or authorised visa centre of the destination, usually with an application form, passport photos, bank statements, travel itinerary and accommodation bookings.
Processing takes days to weeks, and some embassies require an interview; start the application well before your trip.
Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.

Plugs and voltage
You need a travel adapter: Indonesia uses plug types C, F, the Gambia uses G. Mains voltage differs (Indonesia: 127/230 V; the Gambia: 230 V): most phone and laptop chargers accept 100โ240 V, but single-voltage devices such as some hair dryers need a converter.
