According to a press release from the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, Indonesia plans to partially re-open its borders to tourists in July 2021. 

The announcement was made yesterday (2/6) at the Arabian Travel Market (ATM) Dubai 2021, the leading global event for the Middle East’s inbound and outbound travel industry.

In preparation, the government has carried out a widespread vaccination program for targeted groups, including the tourism workforce.

The hope is that destinations like Bali, Batam, and Bintan will serve as “locomotive” regions to kickstart tourism for the whole country.

In addition, the government has also initiated the Cleanliness, Health, Safety, and Environmental Sustainability (CHSE) certification program throughout the tourism sector in Indonesia.
