Destination packing

Trip length

Without laundry: underwear and socks for each day plus a spare; tops reused for two days. Pack extra tops for hot weather or change daily as needed.

Basic packing

Transport and entry restrictions

Check arrival declarations, visas and Bali’s levy separately

All Indonesia declarations do not replace a visa. Check passport-specific visa eligibility and Bali visitor-levy applicability or exemptions through official channels; retain confirmations.

US Department of State — Indonesia entry and Bali levy guidance Checked:

Flights: power banks

Keep power banks in cabin baggage, protect terminals and prevent damage; remove them if a bag is gate-checked. FAA guidance uses 100Wh as the general lithium-ion battery threshold. Your airline may impose stricter power-bank quantity, capacity, use and charging rules; verify your actual carrier before travel.

FAA PackSafe — lithium batteries Checked:

Flights: cabin liquids

At standard US TSA checkpoints, ordinary cabin liquids use containers no larger than 100mL in one clear quart-size bag. Departure and transit airports can have different rules and exceptions, including medicines, infant supplies and duty-free purchases. Check your actual airports; ship rules are separate.

Questions before you pack

Can I rely on borrowing a sarong at temples?

It depends on the temple. Bring covering clothing and ask each site about sarongs, sashes and entry conditions; rental stock is not guaranteed.

Can I use a hair dryer brought from Japan?

Do not connect a Japanese 100V-only appliance directly to a higher-voltage supply. Check voltage and frequency ratings; use compatible equipment or the hotel’s dryer.

Do entry formalities apply identically to everyone?

They depend on nationality, passport, purpose and route. Use the official country links to check your own requirements; an arrival declaration is not a visa.

Can I buy these items locally?

Suggested shops are possibilities, not guarantees of stock, sizes or opening hours. Bring arrival essentials and items that must fit you.
