Importing a Vehicle

Although importing a car to Indonesia is possible, there are many restrictions, and it is costly. Officially, no one is permitted to import a used car into the country, but an exception may be made for people who are on an extended diplomatic mission. New cars can be exported to Indonesia, but the government levies a 300% duty on the value of the vehicle. Whether or not you can get your car into Indonesia may depend on how much your car means to you and who you know. Give us a call at 1-800-518-8708, and we’ll help you through the process.
