Ngurah Rai Immigration has deported BR, a Lithuanian national born in Israel, for misusing a Business Visit Visa to work as a paid content creator and carry out digital marketing activities for “The Bali Dream,” where he was identified as a nomad subject.
The action began after Immigration investigated social media information regarding the alleged involvement of two former Israeli military members in managing a travel agency in Bali. Verification found that both individuals, SG and AC, had already left Indonesia on August 11, 2025.
The investigation then turned to “The Bali Dream.” Immigration found that the website and business WhatsApp number were linked to BR, who entered Indonesia on May 7, 2026. No physical office for “The Bali Dream” was found in Indonesia during the investigation.
For violating his immigration stay permit, BR was deported and banned from entering Indonesia for five years, effective August 13, 2026.
Ngurah Rai Immigration said it will continue strengthening its supervision of foreign nationals’ activities to help keep Bali safe, comfortable, and orderly.
