Long Passport Names on the LoveBali Website for the Bali Levy

Long Passport Names on the LoveBali Website for the Bali Levy

Many international travelers experience an issue when paying the Bali Tourist Levy through the Love Bali Official Website because their passport name is too long for the system.

The current character limits are:

  • First Name: maximum 40 characters
  • Last Name: maximum 15 characters

This becomes a problem for travelers with long names, multiple given names, or double family names commonly found in Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and South Asia.

To avoid verification issues, enter your name as close as possible to your passport while staying within the system limits. Do not completely change or rearrange your identity details.

Use the MRZ on Your Passport

When your passport name is too long, the safest reference is the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ).

The MRZ is the two lines of text located at the bottom of your passport biodata page. It is the internationally standardized identity format used by immigration systems worldwide.

Example of MRZ

Because airlines, immigration systems, and automated scanners rely on this format, matching your LoveBali registration to the MRZ is usually the safest approach.

How to Follow the Passport MRZ Format

Check how your name appears in the MRZ section.

Example MRZ:

P<ESP<GONZALEZ<RODRIGUEZ<<MARIA<ELIZABETH

This tells you:

  • Family name = GONZALEZ RODRIGUEZ
  • Given names = MARIA ELIZABETH

Use that structure when deciding what to shorten.

Do Not Invent New Abbreviations

Avoid entries like:

  • M E F GONZALEZ
  • MARI
  • LIZZY

These may no longer match your official identity.

If shortening is necessary, trim naturally from the end while preserving the original spelling order.

What If You Are Still Unsure?

If you are unsure how to shorten your name correctly, it is better to ask for assistance before submitting the payment.

Incorrect name input may cause issues during verification or when matching your Bali Levy record with your passport details later.

BaliEasy can help ensure your details are entered correctly and avoid common submission mistakes.
