Three Australians are among a group of foreigners deported from Bali after being busted for a range of law violations.
Indonesian immigration officials carried out 10 deportations of foreign nationals within the past week, with three of those being Australian citizens.
Ngurah Rai Immigration chief Muhamad Novyandri said stay-permit violations were responsible for the largest portion of deportations, with misuse of investor limited responsible for 30 per cent of expulsions.
Indonesian immigration officials revealed one Australian man, only identified as NA, had been removed from Bali after being accused of providing false information relating to an investment.
Another Aussie, known as JA, was deported after authorities discovered they had allegedly continued running their business despite having their business license revoked.
Two of the ten travellers faced deportation for overstaying their tourist visa — with an Australian known as ADH removed after being caught in the nation 78 days past his visa expiry.
Two individuals who had completed custodial sentences in Indonesian prisons were also deported during the crackdown. Officials are yet to reveal their nationalities or further details of their deportation.
Other foreign nationals were also kicked out of Bali alongside the Aussies, including a Ukrainian national accused of illegally working as a DJ and a Russian woman accused of illegally working as a model in beverage advertisements.
All ten of the deported individuals are now listed under Indonesia’s immigration deterrence list, which bans people from re-entering the country for a set period of time.
While authorities are yet to reveal just how long the Aussies are banned from the tourist hotspot, visa overstays and similar infractions often result in no entry terms between six months and several years.
The mass deportation comes amid a heavy crackdown on immigration in the Indonesian island.
342 foreign nationals were deported from Bali in the first six months of 2026, with authorities stating the majority of those were due to overstaying or visa misuse.
Novyandri said immigration would continue patrols as part of efforts to ensure foreigners in Bali comply with the conditions attached to their visas and residence permits.
