Re: Batam Info / Interest / Help Thread

I’m in Batam now. The process was really straightforward. For bros trying to visit here, this is what you need to do.

1. Book Ferry Tickets
2. Purchase covid19 insurance with destination as ASEAN (buy from Changirecommends as it’s the cheapest)
3. Within 3 days before the arrival date, fill the SG Arrival online
4. A day or two before you depart to Batam, download and complete your profile in the PeduliLindungi app (this app you won’t use anytime when you’re here)
5. Fill up the Letter of statement while you’re in the ferry
6. Activate roaming for the number of days you are here (I used StarHub $5 plan that gives me 3 days of roaming with 1GB of data)

Other notes: the malls or buildings here need you to check temperature but no need to check in or check out. No need predeparture test or on arrival test unless you have some symptoms.
