How it works

1. Get a price. Use the price box on this page. Published lanes price instantly; anything else is priced by a person, usually the same business day.
2. Book it. We confirm the sailing, cartage and documents by email before anything is committed.
3. We collect, pack and clear it. Cartage to the container yard, packing and lashing, and the Australian export declaration.
4. Track it to Indonesia. You get a private tracking link showing the vessel, sailing date and each milestone.

Before you ship to Indonesia

• Indonesia restricts used vehicle imports. Most of what we ship there is new vehicles for licensed Indonesian importers, and we check the receiver's licence and paperwork before we book.
• The receiver in Indonesia clears the vehicle through customs and pays the import taxes there.
• Send us the commercial invoice, the VIN and engine number, and the receiver's details so the documents match exactly.
• Clean the vehicle inside, outside and underneath before it ships.

General information only, checked on 11 October 2026. Import rules are set by the destination country and change, so confirm them with the receiver's customs agent before you buy or ship.
