For international visitors in 2026, the Komodo National Park entrance fee is IDR 650,000 per person (approximately USD 40), issued as a dated ticket valid for the entry date printed on it. The ticket covers the classic park circuit — including ranger-escorted trekking on Komodo and Padar — and is arranged before you sail. This page keeps the full fee table, what the ticket includes, where tickets are purchased, and a changelog of how the tariff has moved, so you can plan with confidence.
| Fee item | Amount (IDR) | Notes & source basis |
|---|---|---|
| Dated park ticket — international visitor | 650,000 / person / entry date (≈USD 40) | The ticket international guests are issued in practice; includes ranger escort and trekking. Reported stable across 2025–2026 by park-fee guides and operators. |
| Statutory base entrance line (PNBP) | 250,000 / person / day | Set by Government Regulation No. 36/2024, as reported by state news agency Antara; flat every day of the week for foreign visitors. |
| Domestic (Indonesian) visitor | 50,000 weekday; 75,000 weekend/holiday | Per PP 36/2024 coverage (Antara); the simplified domestic ticket already includes trekking, wildlife observation and snorkeling. |
| Diver surcharge | ±25,000 / diver / day | As listed by dive-travel platforms for 2026; confirm the current amount with your dive operator. |
| Harbour fee | ±25,000 / person / day | Cited by dive and park-fee guides for visitors using park harbours. |
| Vessel entry ticket | By engine capacity | Charged per boat based on engine size under the current tariff structure (Antara); folded into charter pricing on organized trips. |
Why two headline numbers? IDR 250,000 is the statutory base entrance line in the regulation; IDR 650,000 is the dated ticket international guests actually receive on the ground, bundling the base line with the ranger, trekking access and related components. Reputable operators quote the dated-ticket figure so there are no surprises at the gate.
Diving adds the small per-day diver surcharge above; private vessels pay their own engine-capacity entry ticket.
Two worked examples make the table concrete. A non-diving international guest on a standard park day holds the dated ticket at IDR 650,000 (≈USD 40), which already carries the ranger escort, trekking on Komodo and Padar, and snorkeling — if their route uses a park harbour, the ±IDR 25,000 harbour fee applies on top. A certified diver doing two park dives adds the ±IDR 25,000 daily diver surcharge to the same ticket. In both cases the vessel’s own engine-capacity entry ticket is paid per boat, not per guest, and on an organized charter it is absorbed into trip handling rather than billed at the jetty. Domestic visitors run on the simpler statutory line: IDR 50,000 on weekdays or IDR 75,000 on weekends and holidays, activities included.
The practical rule: quotes that look dramatically lower than the dated-ticket figure are usually quoting only the statutory base line and leaving the ranger, trekking and handling components to be discovered on arrival. Ask any operator for a written, itemized breakdown for your exact dates — a professional one will provide it without hesitation.
Tickets can be obtained several ways: through the official online portal, via accredited agents in Labuan Bajo, at the park visitor centre in Labuan Bajo, or at the gate on the day itself subject to the daily visitor quota. In practice, virtually all liveaboard and day-trip guests have tickets arranged by their operator in advance and simply present them at the ranger stations of Loh Liang (Komodo) or Loh Buaya (Rinca). A registration system now applies to all visitors, so booking ahead is the dependable route — across 1,063 recent Komodo Luxury bookings, the median guest reserved 74 days before departure, which comfortably clears ticketing and quota timelines even in peak season.
| Period | What happened |
|---|---|
| 2022 | A proposed high-price “premium” membership scheme for Komodo Island drew wide debate and was ultimately not implemented; park-fee guides confirm it was formally shelved. |
| 2024 | Government Regulation No. 36/2024 simplified the tariff: a single entrance ticket replacing multiple activity fees, with the foreign base line at IDR 250,000/day and domestic at IDR 50,000/75,000 (Antara). |
| 2025 | The environment ministry indicated in late 2025 that Komodo fees would hold at current levels through 2026 (as reported by park-fee guides). The dated international ticket remained IDR 650,000. |
| 2026 | Flat schedule applies — no weekday/weekend split for international visitors; visitor registration mandatory; daily quota enforced. Dated ticket unchanged at IDR 650,000 (≈USD 40). |
| 2027 | No official tariff change announced at the time of writing. This page is updated when the park authority or ministry publishes changes. |
On any Komodo Luxury charter or shared sailing, park ticketing is handled end-to-end: dated tickets, ranger assignment, vessel entry, and diver surcharges where relevant are secured before departure and itemized transparently in your booking. Our trip pricing is published in USD; park fees are government charges in rupiah that we administer on your behalf. See our Komodo tour packages for itineraries that pair the park circuit with Padar Island, Pink Beach and the Komodo dragon encounters the park is famous for — or ask our concierge on WhatsApp at +62 811 3823 875 for a written fee breakdown for your exact dates.
International visitors pay IDR 650,000 per person (approximately USD 40) as a dated ticket valid for the printed entry date, including ranger-escorted trekking. The statutory base entrance line under Government Regulation No. 36/2024 is IDR 250,000 per day, with the dated ticket bundling the remaining components.
Not for international visitors — the rate is flat every day. Domestic (Indonesian) visitors pay IDR 50,000 on weekdays and IDR 75,000 on weekends and public holidays, per the tariff coverage reported by Antara.
Yes. Padar Island is covered under the bundled Komodo ticket, and snorkeling at Pink Beach, Taka Makassar, Manta Point and other park waters carries no separate surcharge under the current tariff.
For international visitors the ranger escort and trekking access are included in the dated ticket, so there is no separate line to pay at the gate. Rangers remain mandatory whenever you walk in Komodo dragon habitat.
Dive-travel platforms list a surcharge of around IDR 25,000 per diver per day for 2026, on top of the entrance ticket and harbour fee. Amounts occasionally differ between operators, so confirm the current figure when booking your dives.
Via the official online portal, accredited agents in Labuan Bajo, the park visitor centre, or at the gate subject to the daily quota. Liveaboard and tour guests normally have dated tickets arranged by their operator in advance — Komodo Luxury handles this end-to-end and itemizes every fee.
No official change has been announced at the time of writing. Late-2025 ministry signals pointed to fees holding at current levels through 2026, and this page’s changelog is updated whenever the park authority publishes a new tariff.
