General Relocation Regulations
Duty-Free Eligibility Conditions
To qualify for complete import duty exemption (PIBK path) under PMK 25/2025, items must be verified personal effects used abroad for at least 12 months. Consignments must arrive in Indonesia within 90 days of the owner’s legal entry date back into the country.
Allowable vs Non-Allowable Items
Permitted cargo includes reasonable quantities of used clothing, personal electronics, books, and household furniture. Strictly prohibited components include new items (with original retail price tags/labeling), commercial merchandise stockpiled for resale, motorized vehicles, industrial heavy machines, raw seeds, or live agricultural products.
Freight Packing Limitations
Standard sea relocation packages utilize robust boxes (recommended dimensions: 50x50x50cm) with an absolute maximum weight threshold of 32 kg per individual box. Overweight boxes require partition adjustments prior to fleet carrier collection.
Legal Declaration Accountability
Any structural omission, misrepresentation, or false declarations submitted within the packing manifest completely rests on the cargo owner. This includes subsequent clearance delays, administrative fines, or seizure actions issued by Bea Cukai.
