Visitors to Komodo National Park need an entry ticket and, from 1 April 2026, a reservation through the park’s SIORA system. The official tourism portal lists separate domestic weekday, domestic holiday and foreign-visitor tariffs, while activities such as scuba diving and fishing carry additional fees, according to Indonesia’s tourism authority, 2026.

How much is entry to Komodo National Park?

Under Government Regulation No. 36 of 2024, the official tourism portal lists the domestic tariff at Rp50,000 per person on weekdays and Rp75,000 per person on weekends or public holidays, according to Indonesia Travel, 2026.

The listed foreign-visitor tariff is Rp250,000 per person. The regulation took effect on 30 October 2024, according to Indonesia Travel, 2026.

What activities have separate charges?

Scuba diving is listed at Rp25,000 per person, while fishing is listed at Rp5,000,000 per person, according to Indonesia Travel, 2026.

The stated entry tariff covers access for trekking, wildlife observation and snorkelling. It does not include boats, accommodation or tourism-operator services, according to Indonesia Travel, 2026.

Do visitors need to reserve before entering?

Komodo National Park’s tourism information says prospective visitors must register through the online SIORA reservation system. The same information states that the park set a maximum quota of 1,000 visitors per day from 1 April 2026, according to Indonesia Travel, 2026.

Where does the weather check fit into the plan?

Entry fees and reservations do not replace marine-weather checks for trips departing Labuan Bajo. BMKG’s marine forecast for Labuan Bajo waters reported winds from the north-east at 11 knots, gusts of 17 knots and waves of 0.8 metres, classified as low, for 21 September 2026, according to BMKG, 2026.
