Bali Considers Bank Balance Checks to Curb Mass Tourism | Spotlight | N18G

Bali is considering a controversial new proposal that would require foreign tourists to disclose their bank balances and travel plans before visiting the island. Backed by Governor Wayan Koster, the draft regulation aims to curb “low-quality” tourism by ensuring visitors have sufficient funds and respect local culture. The move follows a surge in arrivals, with over seven million foreign tourists visiting Bali in 2025, straining infrastructure and the environment. Supporters argue the policy mirrors strict visa rules Indonesians face abroad and promotes sustainable tourism. Critics warn it could deter budget travellers, raise privacy concerns and prove difficult to enforce under Indonesia’s national immigration system.
