Chinese tourist arrivals to Indonesia surged to a six-year high of 1.34 million in 2025, marking a powerful post-pandemic recovery and ranking China as the fourth-largest source of international visitors, accounting for 8.7% of total inbound tourism to the country.
Indonesia experienced a significant tourism recovery in 2025, with arrivals from China reaching 1.34 million visitors. This figure represents the highest level in six years, confirming that travel between the two nations has not only rebounded but surpassed pre-pandemic levels.
Chinese tourists, forming the fourth-largest visitor group, primarily flocked to the iconic destinations of Bali and Jakarta, which together recorded over one million visits. Interest also expanded to other regions like North Sumatra, Batam, and Surabaya, indicating a diversification of travel patterns within Indonesia.
This rebound is attributed to renewed travel confidence, improved transport links, and visa facilitation. With China also ranking as a top destination for Indonesian travelers, the sustained growth signals a robust normalization of people-to-people exchanges and strengthened regional connectivity within Asia.
