1. 1

   Step 1

   Enter the bill in the local currency of Indonesia (IDR).

2. 2

   Step 2

   Pick the service type: restaurants 5%, hotels 5%, taxis 0%, cafes 0%.

3. 3

   Step 3

   We apply the local Indonesia percentage and show the total with tip.

• 1

  Tipping in Indonesia is custom, not obligation: this dataset assumes roughly 5% in restaurants and 5% at hotels when no service charge is added — check the bill first, since many venues in Bali already include service.

• 2

  Pad the plan, not every line item: add a 10-15% contingency to the tipping total for Bali instead of inflating each component, so you can see exactly where the extra money goes when it is needed.

• 3

  Compare tipping options for Bali on totals, not headline rates: a cheaper nightly price with expensive transport can cost more overall, so run the full calculation for each option before you commit to one.

• Rounding the Bali tip by foreign reflex: the norms near 5% for restaurants and 5% for hotels apply to the full pre-discount total, and shaving the figure after a good meal misreads the local norm. Tip on the complete bill.

• Tipping Bali twice: when service is already printed on the bill, adding the 5% restaurant norm from this dataset pays the server a second time. Read the invoice line first, then apply percentages only where service is absent.
