About the Komodo National Park Fee guide

By Komodo National Park Fee Editorial Desk

This page is about the Komodo National Park Fee guide: an English-language reference with a request desk, under Juara Holding Group. It is not the park authority and it does not sell tickets. It explains which fees are official, who reports the rest, and how each figure is sourced and dated.

What should you know about this Komodo National Park fee guide?

The site exists for one narrow job: to separate what the Indonesian state charges at Komodo National Park from what other parties say is charged. That line gets blurred quickly, because operators, hotels and older articles publish figures of their own, and a traveller about to pay usually cannot tell which is which.

The pages are written and maintained by the Komodo National Park Fee Editorial Desk, which is the only byline you will see here. The site sits under Juara Holding Group. Nothing here is a first-hand field report: the pages rest on published documents and named reports, and they link to them so that you can read the original. The starting point is the Komodo National Park fee overview, which maps every other page.

This table shows what the guide does and where the official answer lives.

Is this the official park website?

No, and the domain name should not suggest otherwise. It describes the topic of the site, nothing more. UNESCO records the park as managed by Indonesia's central government through the forestry ministry, and on the ground that role falls to Balai Taman Nasional Komodo, the park authority. Its site carries the official tariff poster and the park's general information, including its published contact details, repeated on our contact page. Those channels are theirs, and this site does not answer for them.

Official booking runs through SiOra, which the conservation directorate describes as covering ticket reservation, zone navigation and conservation-area permits. If you want an official site to buy a ticket, that is where to look, and the guide to checking a fee yourself shows how to confirm a figure against the source.

Where do the figures come from?

Sources are weighed in this order, and a figure is labelled with the level it comes from. A later dated official announcement, even when reported by press, can override undated page text, and we say so when it does.

1. Law. Regulations in the audit board's database, such as Government Regulation 36/2024, with their enactment and effective dates.
2. The park authority. Its poster, guide, drone, SIMAKSI and protocol pages, plus siora.id.
3. Ministries. The forestry ministry, its conservation directorate and the tourism ministry.
4. Named press. Reports that quote an official or a document, always credited to the outlet that published them.
5. Operators and hotels. Useful for what sellers actually charge, and always marked as their claim rather than as a tariff.

Amounts of money appear only in labelled fee lists, each with its source and the month it was checked, so that a number cannot drift away from its citation. A sentence in an article can age quietly, and a row with a date beside it is easier to challenge. Other kinds of fact get the same treatment in prose: the park authority gives 1991 as the World Heritage inscription year, and the page says the park authority gives it.

How do we handle source conflicts?

We show them. Two sources that disagree are both named, and we say which is stronger when a reason exists. We do not average, and we do not merge figures from different sources into one range, because a range implies a spread of real prices when the truth may be that one source is simply wrong. Four live examples:

The originals are here: the park authority's area figure and UNESCO's; RRI on the quota, with Detik and CNN Indonesia; Casa de Capulet and IDN Times on booking; and the tourism authority and siora.id on the name. Some of these can be left open without harm. The booking conflict cannot, since it decides how you act, so the advice there is to try the app or ask the call centre. A conflict we cannot settle stays visible on the page until someone can.

How is the site funded?

By the desk. Requests through the desk can lead to a paid booking, so we have a commercial interest in whether you get in touch. You should read every page with that in mind. It also explains why the site keeps the state tariff and any commercial offer apart: a fee, the price and the company that contracts with you are stated in writing in an offer before you agree to anything, and the site itself is not a contracting party. Reading this guide commits you to nothing.

A desk whose requests can end in a paid booking has an interest, so read its comments on a rival quote with that in mind. This guide publishes no ranking of sellers. Being named here as a source of a claim is not an endorsement, and several named sources are quoted precisely because their figures differ from the poster.

How often are figures rechecked?

Each fee row shows the month it was last checked, and the current figures carry November 2026. There is no promise of a fixed calendar, because the rules here do not change on one. The tariff lines date from October 2024, while booking and quota rules moved several times in 2025 and 2026, and the timeline of fee changes shows that pattern. If a check month looks old against your travel date, go to the source link beside the figure first.

What will this guide not tell you?

Some questions get a plain "not established" here, because a confident guess could cost a reader money. These are the main ones:

• A special rate for foreign residents or KITAS holders. The poster separates only foreign and Indonesian tourists.
• A child or infant rate, or an age for free entry.
• Whether SiOra accepts foreign cards today, or a written refund procedure with timing.
• An official harbour fee, or current official guide tariffs at Loh Liang and Padar.
• A 2027 tariff or quota, or how ticket revenue is split or spent.
• A fee stated in US dollars. Official tariffs are in rupiah, and exchange rates move.

What do readers ask about the guide itself?

Does the Komodo National Park Fee guide sell tickets?

No. It does not sell park tickets, hold quota or collect ticket payments. Tickets go through SiOra, the park authority's booking system.

How does the Komodo National Park Fee guide check its figures?

Each fee row is traced to a regulation, a park authority page, a ministry page, a named press report or a named operator, then labelled with that source and its check month. Operator figures stay marked as operator claims.

Who writes the Komodo National Park Fee guide?

The Komodo National Park Fee Editorial Desk, under Juara Holding Group. Pages carry the desk's byline rather than individual names, and the source list on each page links to what it relies on, so it can be judged on that basis.

Is the Komodo National Park Fee desk part of the park authority?

No. The park is managed by Indonesia's central government through its forestry ministry and the park authority, Balai Taman Nasional Komodo. The desk has no government role and cannot decide tickets, quota, refunds or permits.

Is this an official Komodo National Park site?

No. It is a private guide. The park authority's own website publishes the tariff poster, and siora.id handles booking and quota information.
