Indonesia has extended visa-free entry to citizens of Brazil and Turkey, a rare privilege in the Southeast Asian nation aimed at boosting tourism and business ties.

The decision, effective immediately under a new immigration regulation, grants visitors from the two countries 30-day visa waivers for travel related to tourism, business and medical treatment, Acting Director General of Immigration Yuldi Yusman said in a statement Thursday.
