DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping from India to Indonesia for Indian exporters, manufacturers and brands selling to Indonesian buyers. One all-in quote covers the freight from India, Indonesian customs clearance, import duty and taxes, and delivery to your buyer’s door, so your customer receives the goods without having to arrange the import side.
Indian exporters who have agreed DDP terms with an Indonesian customer, D2C and B2B brands opening the Indonesian market, distributors replenishing stock for an Indonesian reseller, and manufacturers sending spare parts or samples to a plant in Indonesia. Many Indonesian buyers, such as smaller companies and online sellers, have no import licence of their own; DDP lets you sell to them on a landed, duty-paid basis. If your buyer prefers to import in its own name, see section 8.
Cotton yarn, fabrics, home textiles and apparel. Several textile and garment HS codes need an import approval and a pre-shipment surveyor report, so we check the HS code first.
Pumps, valves, motors, castings, forgings, auto components and spare parts. Usually general cargo; used or remanufactured machinery follows separate rules.
Organic chemicals, dyestuffs, pigments and resins. An MSDS is required, and dangerous goods are quoted separately and only where the carrier accepts them.
Medicines, supplements, cosmetics, spices and processed food fall under BPOM and, for many foods, quarantine. The Indonesian permit holder must be in place before booking.
Steel products, tiles, sanitaryware and fittings. Many steel and some ceramic HS codes are restricted (SNI and/or import approval).
Brass and wooden handicrafts, rugs, incense and imitation jewellery. Wooden items and packaging may need fumigation or phytosanitary documents.
Sea: Nhava Sheva (JNPT) / Mumbai, Mundra, Chennai and Kolkata, to Tanjung Priok, Jakarta. Air: Delhi (DEL), Mumbai (BOM), Chennai (MAA) and Bengaluru (BLR), to Soekarno-Hatta, Jakarta. Pickup from your factory or warehouse in India can be included; tell us the pickup PIN code. Other Indian gateways, such as Hyderabad or Ahmedabad, can be checked on request.
Indonesian customs clearance takes place in Jakarta: at Tanjung Priok for sea cargo and at Soekarno-Hatta for air cargo. Delivery to an address in Jakarta is part of the DDP quote; delivery to other cities such as Surabaya, Bandung, Semarang, Medan or Bali is quoted per shipment. Transit times depend on the sailing or flight schedule and are confirmed with each quote.
Under DDP the goods are imported through a registered Indonesian importer of record arranged by us, so the buyer does not need its own import licence for general cargo. See importer of record in Indonesia for how this works.
India and Indonesia are both parties to the ASEAN–India Trade in Goods Agreement (AIFTA). Goods that meet the AIFTA rules of origin may qualify for a preferential import duty rate, but only with a valid Form AI certificate of origin issued by the authorised Indian body, with details that match the invoice and shipping documents. Eligibility is confirmed per shipment against the HS code; if the Form AI is missing, late or inconsistent, the general duty rate applies. The preference only affects import duty: VAT (11% effective) and income tax article 22 still apply. More detail: Indonesia import duty and tax.
Some products need an Indonesian permit or certification before they can be imported, for example SNI certification, a pre-shipment surveyor report (LS), BPOM registration for food, drugs and cosmetics, quarantine clearance, or SDPPI certification for radio and telecom devices. These must exist before the goods leave India: a surveyor report cannot be obtained after the cargo has arrived in Jakarta. We review restricted goods shipment by shipment and handle them when the shipment can be made compliant; we do not quote them blind. Background: selling to Indonesia without a local import licence.
An Indonesian company holding an NIB with import licence can import in its own name. We then provide IDX Import Port to Port (freight from India to Jakarta) together with IDX Customs Clearance (declaration and release in Jakarta), and the buyer pays duty and taxes directly. This often suits regular B2B flows; DDP suits buyers without a licence and sellers who want to offer one landed price. See customs clearance in Indonesia.
Quotes are issued in Indonesian rupiah (IDR); a USD reference amount can be shown on request. Indicative prices are on our rate pages and in the IndoExpress quote app; the final DDP figure is confirmed after we check the commercial invoice and packing list.
