How customs clearance works with us in Indonesia

In Indonesia, customs clearance is handled by a dedicated partner team that works under the Ziem Logistics brand, to our procedures and with the shipment data we prepare. You deal only with Ziem Logistics, from booking to release. We issue our own air waybills on Indonesia lanes, without a third-party consolidator.

Shipping to Indonesia: what to know

Indonesian import declarations are lodged through CEISA. Importers need a business identification number (NIB), and many goods are subject to import restrictions (lartas) that require permits before arrival. Missing approvals are the most common reason for long dwell times, so we check them first.

The Ziem network team in Indonesia works directly with Customs to resolve queries, under our brand and with the data we prepare.
