TL;DR
The port fee at Bali ferry terminals is 20,000–25,000 IDR per person, payable via QR code with a foreign bank card or cash.
When booking via Trip.com with a transfer from Ubud, there are two pickup points. You'll be taken to the correct spot in the port to exchange your voucher for a ticket and pay the port fee in cash — 20,000 IDR per person. The same fee applies on the return journey.
At Banjar Nuyh port, the departure tax is 25,000 IDR per person, paid via QR code using a foreign bank card. If you don't have a compatible card, a local driver can pay on your behalf and you reimburse them in cash.
Ferry tickets can be purchased the day before departure. Always confirm the arrival port when buying, as it can vary by route. Bargaining is acceptable.
