Shipping Luggage To Indonesia

Indonesia, situated in Southeast Asia, is best known around the world for its beaches, volcanoes, Komodo dragons and jungles sheltering all kinds of exotic species. Boasting a population of approximately 261.1 million, Indonesia is home to hundreds of ethnic groups speaking many different languages.

Whatever your reason may be for travelling to Indonesia, whether to visit family, to study abroad, or even to relocate permanently, there’s always the question of how to transport your personal belongings in one piece and, more importantly, without breaking the bank. Thankfully, there is an alternative. My Baggage offers a brand new approach to transporting your luggage overseas. We make it our aim to remove all of the stress and costs involved, so you can wave goodbye to expensive airline baggage fees and out-of-budget removals.

Although My Baggage specialises in luggage shipping, we also offer a cost-effective way to ship traditionally large, oversized items to Indonesia. With us, there’s no more worrying about excess baggage fees with your airline, nor do you have to fret about having to haul large, bulky items from home and through train stations, taxis and airports. We take care of it for you.

Send Your Bicycle To Indonesia

If venturing off the beaten track and discovering more of local Indonesian life appeals to you, cycling is certainly one of the best ways to do it. Shipping your bicycle overseas sounds much more complicated than what it actually is in reality. With My Baggage, it’s effortless. Simply book online and we will collect your bicycle from your address and deliver it straight to where it needs to go. However, please note that if you are shipping your bicycle, it will need to be dismantled and packaged up in a bicycle box. Your local bike shop can do this for you.

Send Boxes to Indonesia

With My Baggage, you can send thoughtful gifts and care-packages to your loved one living overseas. Before proceeding with your booking, be sure to do some research into Indonesian customs, particularly when it comes to sending gifts. Make sure to invest in a new, sturdy, double-walled cardboard box and cushion items with plenty of internal packaging, so as to avoid any damage occurring whilst in transit.

Although My Baggage specialises in shipping personal effects all over the world, it is important to keep in mind that due to security and customs, there are certain items which are prohibited and cannot be carried.

As a general rule, you can be sure that the following items are prohibited:

• Aerosols
• Animal Products
• Cash, Credit Cards, Debit Cards
• Dangerous Goods
• Hazardous Goods
• Liquids
• Medicines
• Passports or other confidential personal documentation
• Perishable Foods
• Plants

When sending to Indonesia, the following items are also prohibited:

• Antiques
• Furs
• Gambling Devices
• Jewellery
• Laser Disc
• Precious Metals & Stones

It is important to keep in mind that there are specific items that can be carried, however, they may not be covered under our compensation cover and as such, should be sent at your own risk. If you do need to send any non-compensation items within your luggage, please ensure they are packaged securely and appropriately with internal cushioning.

Please note that import allowances, security and customs processes differ all around the world; we recommend that you do your own personal research into what may be prohibited in your destination country before booking your shipment to Indonesia with us. Additionally, please see further detailed information regarding Indonesian customs below.

When sending your belongings to Indonesia with My Baggage, we recommend using either suitcases or strong cardboard boxes to package your items so they are suitable for transit.

We advise against using fragile or expensive suitcases, as packaging is not covered under our compensation cover. With regards to boxes, it’s always best to invest in a new, sturdy, double-walled cardboard box as they are most durable and suitable for transit.

If you are sending fragile or delicate items, we recommend using internal packaging to protect them during transit. You can use materials such as bubble wrap or newspapers.

When shipping goods to Indonesia, you are legally required to complete and send a customs declaration with your shipment. Whether you’re sending personal effects or a gift, if your shipment does not have a customs invoice attached, it will not make it past your local country border, and you may have to pay return charges to get it back. My Baggage will automatically provide you with the appropriate customs documents for you to complete and attach to your shipment when you send your luggage to Indonesia.

Generally, My Baggage shipments clear customs in a timely manner, free from duties and taxes, as most countries offer a generous duty-free allowance for personal effects. However, as customs processes and allowances differ around the world, we do advise doing your own research into Indonesian customs regulations and quarantine before booking your shipment. Please make yourself aware of any potential customs duties in Indonesia.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Shipments of personal effects to Indonesia can only be cleared if being sent to a residential address. Any shipments to a business address containing personal effects will result in clearance as a commercial shipment and duties applied. As well, the name of the receiver on the shipment must match that that is provided on the documentation for clearance.
