Will your phone work in Bali?
Earn ~10–15% per eSIMTelkomsel is the clear leader in Bali — widest, fastest coverage, especially inland (Ubud, rice terraces) and on Nusa Penida. Most good eSIMs run on the Telkomsel network, and an eSIM also skips the mandatory ID/IMEI registration of a local physical SIM.
- • Best network: Telkomsel (esp. inland & islands); XL and Indosat are city alternatives.
- • Pick an eSIM that runs on Telkomsel — install before you fly.
- • Local physical SIMs require ID + IMEI registration; eSIM avoids the hassle.
- • Content angle: signal test in Ubud / on Nusa Penida + eSIM link.

🛡️ Safety & filming in Bali
Bali is friendly and safe for tourists; the real risks are scooter accidents and a few money/animal scams, not violent crime.
- • Scooter accidents are the #1 injury — ride only if experienced/licensed, helmet on.
- • Use ATMs inside banks (skimming happens); count change at money-changers (use authorised ones).
- • Monkeys at Uluwatu and the Monkey Forest steal phones/sunglasses — secure your gear.
- • Carry cash for rural warungs and temple donations.
🚁 Drone & filming rules
Indonesia requires pre-registration via the SIPP-TA portal for ALL drones (even sub-250g). A 15 km no-fly zone around Denpasar airport covers Kuta, Seminyak, Sanur, Nusa Dua and Jimbaran, and temples/villages have local restrictions with huge fines. Fly only in cleared rural areas — rice terraces and waterfalls can be stunning where permitted.
Rules change — always confirm current local regulations before you fly.
