Labuan Bajo — East Nusa Tenggara’s provincial administration will allow 50,000 foreign and domestic visitors to Komodo National Park in West Manggarai regency, Flores, each year under a rule reported on September 26, 2026. Visitors will also need membership to enter the park.
The annual limit applies to Komodo National Park, while the membership requirement is part of the entry policy. The policy covers visitors from Indonesia and abroad, setting a fixed ceiling for visits to the conservation island.
Why it matters to readers
Travellers planning a visit to the park will need to account for both the 50,000-person annual limit and the membership requirement before entering. The rule therefore affects foreign and domestic visitors who intend to travel to Komodo National Park in West Manggarai regency, Flores.
Komodo Island is a conservation island, and tourists wanting to enter must be registered as members. The entry policy combines that registration requirement with the annual ceiling, meaning access is subject to membership as well as the stated limit on visits.
For visitors from Indonesia and abroad, the policy provides the conditions for entering the park: membership is required, and the number of foreign and domestic visitors allowed each year will not exceed 50,000. The provincial administration’s rule concerns visits to Komodo National Park in West Manggarai, Flores.
