There’s something magical about landing in Bali. The air feels warmer, the sky somehow brighter, and you just know you’re about to have a good time. If you’re heading to Club Med Bali, a little planning before your trip will go a long way, especially when it comes to airport procedures, transport, and what to bring.
This guide has all the essential Club Med Bali arrival information you’ll need, so from the moment you step off the plane, everything runs smoothly and you can slip straight into holiday mode.
1. Club Med Bali Arrival Information: Passport and Visa Rules
Make sure your passport is valid for at least six months from your arrival date. This is an entry requirement for Indonesia, and yes, they do check.
For travellers from ASEAN countries,, you can enter visa-free for up to 30 days. If you’re eligible and want to use the autogates at immigration, you’ll need to register here: Visa Exemption Registration
Just a note: If you’re travelling with children under 14, you’ll need to use the manual immigration counters instead of the autogates. If your country isn’t part of the visa exemption list, you can check online if you are eligible for Visa on Arrival.
Now, while you’re getting all of this sorted, it’s also a good time to sort out your travel insurance.
It’s not required to enter Indonesia, but it’s something we strongly recommend, especially when you’re flying internationally. Good travel insurance can cover:
- Flight delays or cancellations
- Lost or delayed baggage
- Medical treatment or accidents
- Theft or loss of personal items
If you’re a Malaysian resident, you can contact Travelution Holidays to get your insurance sorted before the trip. We’ll help you choose a plan that covers the essentials, so you can focus on enjoying the holiday, not stressing about what-ifs.
2. Forms to Fill Before You Fly
Here are a few things to get done online before your trip to avoid unnecessary delays at the airport:
- Customs Declaration: ecd.beacukai.go.id
All travellers must fill out Indonesia’s electronic customs declaration. - SatuSehat Health Pass: sshp.kemkes.go.id
All guests travelling to Indonesia must individually complete the SATUSEHAT Health Pass (SSHP). - Bali Tourist Levy: lovebali.baliprov.go.id
All international tourists entering Bali must pay a Bali tourist levy of IDR 150,000 (about USD 10). Pay in advance here to skip the queue.
Once you’ve paid, screenshot your receipt or QR code. You’ll need to show it when you arrive.
3. Arrival at Denpasar Airport (Ngurah Rai International)
You’ve landed! After you disembark, follow signs for Immigration.
You’ll need:
- Your passport
- Visa or visa exemption registration (if applicable)
- Proof of Bali Tourist Levy payment
- Completed customs declaration (print or digital)
Most visitors breeze through, but it can get busy, especially during mid-day arrivals. Be patient, and make sure you have your phone or printed documents ready.
4. Club Med Bali Airport Transfers
If you’ve arranged a transfer through Club Med, a team member will be waiting outside the terminal holding a Club Med sign. If the arrival hall is packed, just look around slowly or ask airport staff to point you in the right direction.
Transfers are optional but highly recommended if you want to avoid the hassle of negotiating with taxi drivers or figuring out local ride apps like Grab and making your way to the pick up point. The drive to Club Med Bali in Nusa Dua takes around 20 to 30 minutes.
5. Arrival at the Resort
From here, Club Med takes care of everything.
Once you arrive:
- A Club Med GO will assist you with the check-in
- You’ll get a digital wristband, which also works as your room key
- You’ll be guided through a quick orientation
- Your luggage will be delivered to your room
And that’s it. From this moment on, it’s beach time, buffet time… whatever you want.
6. Helpful Packing Tips and Essentials
Here’s a short reminder of what to bring for your Club Med Bali getaway:
- Lightweight clothes and extra swimwear
- Sun protection: reef-safe sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses
- Insect repellent
- Adaptor for European 2-pin plugs
- Prescription medications and any must-haves
- A light cover-up for temple visits (if you’re exploring Bali outside the resort)
7. Final Tips Before Departure
When it’s (sadly) time to head home, Club Med makes leaving as smooth as arriving.
Check-out time is 10am, so plan to have your bags packed and ready in the morning. If you’ve booked a Club Med airport transfer, your departure details will be posted on the TV screen near reception the day before you leave.
Be sure to check it so you’re not caught off guard. On the day itself, place your luggage outside your room at least one hour before your scheduled departure and let reception know it’s ready for collection.
Then just head to the lobby or waiting area a few minutes early to identify your bags. From there, the team will take care of everything, all the way to the airport.
