Moving to Indonesia
When moving to Indonesia, you may consider taking your belongings with you. Transpack offers various transportation options to get your goods to your new home in Indonesia, such as booking air freight, sea freight and groupage services.
The cost of moving to Indonesia
The costs for sea freight and groupage services to Indonesia are relatively low compared to other countries. The container price for shipping to the country is low, making a private container a good option. By shipping your items together with those of others (groupage), you share those low costs and the move becomes even more affordable. Air freight, on the other hand, is expensive, which is why it is only recommended to use it for small shipments that you need at very short notice. Please note that the prices can be a lot higher per island, not every location is equally easy to reach.

How long will it take for my belongings to travel to Indonesia?
De gemiddelde duur van je verhuizing via luchtvracht ligt op 2 tot 3 weken. Voor zeevracht ligt dat anders door de ontzettend grote afstanden in het land. Echter, over het algemeen kun je er vanuit gaan dat de container er 5 tot 7 weken over doet om de haven van bestemming te bereiken. De tijd bij de douane en daarna eventuele wegtransport is daar dus niet bij opgeteld. Een Transpack medewerker kan jou een beter idee geven van de transittijden naar specifieke bestemmingen in het land. Groupage transport duurt gemiddeld 10 tot 12 weken omdat de container vertrekt zodra deze vol zit, jouw goederen kunnen dus een tijd in de loods blijven staan voor vertrek.

To help you prepare for your trip, we have listed a number of tips for you. Be careful not to send documents, keys, medicines, jewelry and other important items in sea and/or air freight.
Clothing
| The climate of Indonesia is warm and humid. Bring light clothing. Make sure you bring enough clothing and shoes. Clothing and shoes are harder to come by in large sizes. |
Travel plug | The mains voltage in Indonesia is about 220 Volts and the frequency is 50Hertzz. You need a (world) adapter plug if you bring electrical appliances. |
Medicines | Check if your medication is available in Indonesia and what the maximum amount is that you are allowed to take with you. Also check if you need a medical certificate to take medication with you on your trip. |
Documents | Take important documents such as passport, visa documents etc. in your hand luggage – also make copies. |
Personal belongings | Think of your favorite toiletries, items that remind you of home, and other things you can’t do without when traveling. Tip: pack an extra set of clothes in your carry-on in case your checked baggage is delayed or lost. |
