Entry requirements Indonesia/Jakarta?
Not sure how to find updated entry requirements.
I'm looking at flying to Jakarta in July. Flying from the US via ADD/BKK. Will it be possible to enter as a normal tourist?
I'm fully vaccinated and have proper insurance.

I entered Indonesia last month with VOA payment, CDC vaccination card, proof of health insurance, and Indonesia's PeduliLindungi app. Indonesia no longer requires a negative COVID-19 test. As usual, however, things change day by day, so it's always best to check official sources such as these:

You get the VOA only at the airport on presentation of passport and payment of the VOA fee. I have existing travel insurance, so I presented the Confirmation of Benefits page along with the insurer's statement about COVID-19 coverage.

But you shouldnt need travel insurance if you have employer sponsored health insurance from a U.S. company, correct? My Blue Cross Blue Shield medical policy provides full coverage in Indonesia same as in the US. Is Indonesia even requiring proof of health insurance to enter?

If you do the e-VOA (vs VOA) there's a separate e-VOA lane. Just go up with your printout, and you'll be in and out in 5 minutes. I've entered twice in the past month, and although I had it, neither time was I asked about insurance. Can you not just do e-VOA? On either entry (CGK or DPS) I never had to show anything other than the e-VOA.

Despite the name, Indonesian visa has an advance component --> https://molina.imigrasi.go.id/
Providing advance info can save much time and interview on arrival.
Visa is also not free for US passport holders. CC on arrival are not accepted.
