make sure click here to visit the following site with more
information: http://www.indo.com/tplan/visa.html You do need
a passport still valid when entering the country for 6 months.
You also need a return ticket. If you travel in on a tourist
visa you will be given 60 days before you have to leave the
country. Sometimes it can be a headache to obtain a business
visa. There most of you combine business with a bit pleasure
travel, filling out the form as tourist might make it easier
'immigration wise'.
Money
In Hotels / travel organisations/ bigger restaurants /
shopping malls/ all major credit cards are accepted. (VISA/
MASTER/AMEX) Traveller cheques are difficult to change, not
excepted in hotels, also the rate is less then cash dollars.
Some cash dollars are always practical there you can mostly

money with your banking card which is ATM / allowed, usable
in a money machine. Then you can withdraw cash money in most
banks.

end of October - March. The top is mostly in January where
