From PNG to WestPapua at Vanimo Boarder

hello...

i read informations about how to cross to PNG from jayapura.
but how is it the other way round ?

i am planing a trip to vanimo for some days... is it a big effort to go over to jaypura for one or two days?

thx

Going to Jayapura from Vanimo is easy. Visit the Indonesian consulate in Vanimo and get a 30 day tourist visa for 50 kina (takes 1 night to process). It costs 10 kina bus fare on a PMV to Batas (border) and 200,000 rupiah from Batas to Jayapura. In Jayapura visit Kantor Imigrasi (immigrations) to get your visa stamped. You don't have to pay any bribe. There is a PNG consulate in Jayapura and the folks there are nice, especially Rosina. You can find a hotel in Jayapura from 80,000 to 350,000 rupiah per night.
