Do I need a visa for Bali from Australia?

Australians need a visa for travelling to Bali. However, the type of visa and when you apply for it may vary depending on the purpose of your trip and the length of your stay. Australians travelling to Bali for tourism, official government duties or business purposes can apply for a visa on arrival once they arrive in Bali. Australians can also apply for an electronic visa on arrival (e-VOA) through the Directorate General of Immigration e-Visa website or through the All Indonesia Arrival Card website, at least 48 hours before travelling to Indonesia. If you do not apply for an e-VOA at least 48 hours in advance of your travel to Indonesia, you can still apply for a regular Visa on Arrival (VOA) at certain international airports, seaports and land crossings, including Jakarta, Bali, Surabaya, Makassar, Lombok, Batam, Medan, Manado, Aceh, Padang, Tanjung Pinang and Yogyakarta. You cannot transit in Indonesia without an e-VOA or VOA. 

For longer stays or other purposes like work, or study, you'll need to obtain the appropriate visa before travelling to Bali, Indonesia.
