Import Clearance
Procedure
All goods coming into
Indonesia must be cleared through Customs and it’s subject to customs duty
and other taxes related to import unless specifically exempted from duty by
law. Import clearance procedure involves a number of steps as the followings:
1 - Procedure for entry prior to clearance
Imported goods are not legally entered, until after the arrival of the vessel with the limits of the port of entry. Upon the arrival of the vessel, the Master or His agent is obliged to lodge a General Declaration covering all cargoes and supplies on board to the Customs Service Office not later than the date of the arrival, exclusive of Sundays and Holidays, or any authorized extension, must be furnished with the following information:
After reporting the
vessel’s content to Customs Service Office, the goods can be unloaded at the
authorized piers and places (approved landing places), or at any other
authorized places subject to the request of the carrier.
Goods may be declared
by the importer or the customs broker on his behalf. The declarant, in order
to obtain clearance of goods for home use or temporary importation must
perform the followings:
In addition the
declarant is not only able to, under customs supervision, conduct a
preliminary inspection and draw samples of goods before lodging the goods declaration
for home use, but also able to obtain advance information from Customs on
valuation and/or classification of the goods concerned.
Declaration must be
made on an import declaration form called “Import Declaration” (PIB) which
should be lodged at the Customs Service Office during the office hours.
After submittance of
general declaration, the goods are allowed to be deposited in the customs
temporary storages (sheds or open spaces) at the port of entry for a maximum
period of 2 months, commenced from the date of unloading; however, in Tanjung
Priok port of entry, the maximum period of temporary storage is only 1 month.
The goods which is not yet cleared within the specified time will be treated
as unclaimed goods in which Customs is empowered to remove, destroy,
reexport, or sell such goods by auction.
In the case of the
unclaimed goods, the importer or his agent is able to, within
one-year-of-removal to the Customs Warehouse, lodge the PIB. If the goods is
still not claimed by then and if the importer fails to settle expenses
incurred for the removal and deposit of the goods, Customs is authorized to
sell such goods by auction or otherwise dispose such goods as decided by the
Minister of Finance.
The proceeds of the
sale are used to cover import duties, taxes, and other expenses. The balance
will be returned to the importer if a claim is made within a period of 3 years
started from the date of deposit in the Customs Warehouse. If it is not
claimed by then, the balance will be appropriated for the State revenue. If
the value of the unclaimed goods is not enough to cover the import duties,
taxes, and other expenses, those goods, which are not harmful or dangerous,
shall be destroyed after three years being taken into custody.
The PIB among others
requires the following information:
The PIB should be
completed with supported documents such as invoice, bill of lading,
insurance papers, packing list, import license for certain kind of goods,
etc.
Examination is
normally done in the presence of the declarant at legally specified places
during office hours. The scope of the examination is normally up to 10%;
however, when an offence is detected, a thorough examination will be carried
out.
The declarant is
responsible for loading and unloading, unpacking, repacking, and providing
other facilities needed for the examination of goods. When examination revels
and discrepancy, the sample of goods may be extracted for proper
classification and assessment of value, duties, and taxes or for any other
purposes as may be determined by Customs.
Customs duties are
classified as ad valorem and specific. An ad valorem duty is a percentage
which is applied to the dutiable value of the imported goods. Whereas a
specific duty is a specified amount per unit of weight, gauge or other
measurement of quantity, e.g. Rp.10,000.00 per kilogram under metric system,
etc.
Payment of duty and
taxes for imported goods shall be done through foreign exchange bank. As for
goods brought by passengers coming from abroad which are not classified as
commercial goods, the payment of duty and taxes can be done at the
Customs Service Office at the airport. Passengers shall be given a
receipt on the spot for duty paid. Any overpayment of duty is returned and
underpayment is billed.
In principal imported
goods should be released immediately; nevertheless, when an offence is
detected, a thorough re-examination will be carried out by Customs. The
release of goods will be subject to normal customs procedures. In the case of
the value of imported goods can not be assessed promptly due to laboratory
analysis requirement, Customs may permit the release of the goods after
taking samples or obtaining detailed technical documentations and the
importer or declarant has submitted a guarantee to ensure the payment of any
additional import duty and taxes might be incurred.
The Minister of
Finance is empowered to remit the whole or any part of duty payable on any
imported dutiable goods which by unavoidable accident or lost, damaged or
destroyed at any time after their arrival within the limit and before removal
from Customs control.
To facilitate trade,
Customs has provided a facility for temporary importation. This facility
allows importers to import temporarily goods without any duty payment under
condition, within certain period of time, the goods must be re-exported.
Otherwise the goods will be considered as permanently imported or home use
and the importers are obliged to pay the duty and taxes incurred as well as
fine amounting 100% of customs duty payable.
Goods which are
eligible for obtaining temporary admission facility are as follows:

Bagaimana Cara Mencegah
Terjadinya Tindak Pidana Korupsi
Modus operandi: Restitusi
Pajak tahunan dengan cara Ekspor Fiktif.
Verifikasi
Lakukan pemeriksaan secara
persuasive / akomodatif atas setiap order yang masuk dengan cara :
Ketahuilah siapa shipper / eksportir anda yang telah
melakukan order pengapalan, seperti alamat perusahaan, tel, fax, contact person
yang melakukan order. Kondisi ini khususnya lebih ditekankan pada shipper baru,
shipping instructionnya tidak mencantumkan dengan jelas alamat, nama
perusahaan, telp dan orang yang dapat dihubungi dan atau yang berwenang /
bertanggung jawab atas order tersebut.
Pendataan order

tangani sebaiknya dilakukan verifikasi ulang, dengan cara :
- Sudah ada lampiran Loading confirmation dari Pelayaran
- Menyerahkan copy PEB yang sudah di legitimasi oleh pihak pabean di pelabuhan muat.
3. Cocokkan
data B/L tersebut dengan data pendukung lain, seperti S/I, Draft B/L, loading
confirmation, atau D/O agar terdapat adanya korelasi dengan dokumen dokumen
lain, jika ada ketidak sesuaian dengan data sebelumnya maka lakukan konfirmasi
ulang dengan pihak shipper / eksportir.
Catatan :
Tidak diperkenan untuk menerbitkan
B/L 2(dua) kali untuk pengapalan yang sama, dengan alasan apapun, diskusikan
dengan pihak pimpinan manajemen untuk diketahui / dan atau guna pencarian
solusi.
Revisi B/L
B/L yang sudah ditanda tangani,
jika dikemudian hari ada permintaan dari pihak shipper / eksportir untuk adanya
revisi, maka :
1. Lakukan
diskusi dengan pimpinan, minimal manajer divisi, agar poin yang dikoreksi tetap

freight term, loading term, nilai M3, nama dan jumlah uraian barang)
2. Pihak
shipper / eksportir diminta agar membuat surat pernyataan / surat permohonan
resmi atas revisi pada B/L yang dimaksudkan diatas kertas bermaterai, dan ditanda
tangani oleh pejabat yang berwenang pada perusahaan tersebut. (Guna menjaga
legilitas dari B/L yang diterbitkan)
Proses Penyerahan B/L & Filing Sistem
Cara Penyerahan B/L
Jika B/L diambil oleh pihak shipper / eksportir, maka
pastikan bahwa yang kurir mengambil B/L tersebut adalah benar utusan / kurir
dari shipper / eksportir, mintalah surat keterangan dari yang
bersangkutan/kurir dan atau dapat menyerahkan surat kuasa asli dari perusahaan,

wajib mengecek kepada shipper / eksportir tersebut untuk kebenaran dari pada
kurir tersebut, selanjutnya buatkan tanda terima dengan mencantumkan : tanda
tangani, nama dan diberi tanggal, jam pengambilan.
Surrender B/L
Setiap B/L yang diminta untuk di surrender oleh pihak
shipper / eksportir, agar terlebih dahulu menerima surat permohonan atas
surrender B/L yang dimaksud. Selanjutnya

lembar original) yang sudah di endorse oleh shipper / eksportir. Dan atas
penyerahan / surrender B/L tersebut di buatkan :Telex release yang di tujukan
ke agen di negara tujuan, sebagai pemberitahuan.

Pengesahan B/L untuk tujuan Restitusi Pajak
Sebelum melakukan pengesahan pada copy B/L yang diterima
dari instansi kantor Pajak untuk tujuan restitusi pajak, penting dilakukan
verifikasi / pengecekan :
1. Periksa
alamat dari kantor instansi pajak yang mengirim, apakah sudah sesuai dengan
alamat shipper / eksportir yang meminta pengesahan.
2. Jika
benar, maka periksa copy B/L yang dilampirkan, apakah B/L tersebut benar pernah
diterbitkan dan data cocok dengan data pada catatan log book dan atau pada

untuk file.
3. Cek
pada shipper / eksportir, apakah benar telah mengejukan restitusi pajak
4. Kemudian
distempel, ditanda tangani, dan foto copy untuk file. Kirim kembali ke instansi
kantor pajak yang meminta pengesahan / legalisasi.
Jika ada hal yang tidak jelas, dan atau dirasa kurang dan
atau tidak sesuai dengan situasi dan kondisi setempat, mohon agar segera
diinformasikan, dan disosialisasikan, untuk menghindari hal hal yang tidak
perlu, yang dapat menyebabkan terjadi penyimpangan atas penggunaan B/L.

5th PPL Network AGM, Bangkok 27th - 30th May 2012
I should have update this long ago but were too busy to update. Myself and my colleague went to Bangkok for PPL Network Annual Meeting from 27th - 30th May 2012. The 4 days 3 nights stay were fully packed and memorable experience.
Our first night was spent mingling with the members as a private function at Sambal Restaurant which is located at Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel, also the hotel we were staying. The weather was just nice with cool breeze I reached there on time at 7.30pm. It was a little awkward at first as I know NO ONE and my colleague decided to buy something and joined me later. But I found I am not the only one who felt that way as there were many others who just joined the network like us and know nobody. Just smile to everyone and approach whoever that meets your eyes. Don't worry you won't be rejected as we all come here for the same reason: To know each other and get business! So if you are SHY, forget about being a salesman or an entrepreneur. I ended the night at 10.30pm to sleep in early.
Meeting started at 8.30am with total attendance about 210 delegates from 70 countries. It was the highest record since the network's 5th year. We had a one-to-one meeting where we had a 15 minutes private meeting with the PPL member.
We boarded 'The Grand Chao Praya Cruise' for private dinner where we spent 3 hours on board to enjoy the food and music. I awarded myself with a bottle of Singha Beer :). We reached back our hotel at 10pm and thought was too early to sleep. So me and my colleague walked out from the hotel and pampered our selves for 2 hours of Thai Massage.
The next 2 days was another fully packed day. The event was successful and fruitful. Not to mention was memorable one too.
Look forward to PPL Network meeting next year!
Life's Good!

5 WAYS TO REDUCE YOUR SHIPPING CHARGES
5 WAYS TO REDUCE YOUR SHIPPING CHARGES
1. Seafreight does not always equate to cheaper freight. If you have only a few boxes of items to ship out, consider sending them by Airfreight. The primary reason being that Seafreight is traditionally meant for Bulky items (think crates and pallet loads), and while the seafreight charges may appear attractive, be prepared to pay a hefty sum of port charges when your shipment arrives.
2. Planning to ship your items by airfreight ? Always ensure that you weigh your items yourselves, and take the dimensions of each item. A small investment in a weighing scale from a convenience store and a measuring tape will go a long way to ensuring that you are not conned into paying more by your agent.
3. Further to point 2., ensure that the weight of your items is more than or equal to 45kg. Most agents won't tell you this but airlines charge up to 200% more for packages that don't meet the minimum Q rate (45kg and above).
4. Further to points 2. and 3., if your items don't weigh 45kg on the scale, don't panic. Calculate the volume weight of the items using this simple formula (length x breadth x height in cm and divide by 6000), this gives you the volume weight per item. Add up the volume weights, chances are sometimes the volume weight exceeds the weight on the scales. and the airlines will usually charge based on the higher of the two.
5. Don't try to send everything by freight. Though largely common knowledge, people often fail to maximise their luggage capacity and hand-carry luggage capacity, some airlines such as Emirates allow passengers to carry 32kg of luggage each. First class and Business class passengers get allowances up to 40kg for multiple pieces of luggage (boxes qualify as check in luggage too). Some airlines also allow passengers to check in bulky items such as sports equipment, so you don't necessarily have to ship your surfboard or golf clubs by freight !

You Can Call Me Ing
Welcome to my world!
My name is Yully Kumala and you can call me Ing.
They say life starts when you hit 30. Then it became more vivid to me what I want to achieve and what I want in Life. So I returned to my hometown in mid last year.... for the best! Grabbing opportunities that the country has plenty to offer, I am chasing after my dream to be a successful entrepreneur.
I began my career at a freight forwarding company, PT.Translindo Nusa Pacific, in early 2004. Like anyone else I made my way up as a junior officer until I was chosen to pioneer PT. Emirates Indonesia, a new subsidiary, when the company obtained an agency for Emirates Shipping Line in 2006 as head the Customer Service and Traffic Controller at Jakarta Headquarter.
Hunger for success I left Indonesia in 2008 and headed Singapore, a transit hub for South East Asia seeking exposure to enrich my experience and skills. Armored with some shipping knowledge and BIG COURAGE, I began from scratch again as Customer Service at local freight forwarding company. Half year later I was invited to join Emirates Shipping Line Agencies Singapore in which I took the offer gladly and started as Customer Service for a year before being assigned to strengthen the sales force where I made an outstanding performance within 2 years.
Today, I carry out my role as Business Development Manager for Translindo Group. Not the boss... I still working my best to buy my part of share in a small division I started since last year.
This site will uncover my expertise, the services, and any findings related to Shipping and Logistics to Indonesia. Please feel free to drop me email on your inquiry if you need assistance.
Life's Great!
Cheers,
Ing Kumala
