Overview
The Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in Paris represents Indonesia in France, a key European partner in defence, trade, and cultural cooperation. France and Indonesia signed a Strategic Partnership in 2011, and bilateral trade has grown steadily. Bali, Java, and Lombok are popular destinations for French travellers. The embassy in the 16th arrondissement processes visa applications, provides consular services to Indonesian nationals in France, and facilitates business connections. Indonesia also maintains a consulate general in Marseille serving southern France.
Visa Services
The embassy processes visa applications for French residents. Many nationalities benefit from Indonesia's visa-free entry (30 days) or visa on arrival programme for tourism.
