Importing Furniture From Bali, Start to Finish

Most buyers source across four clusters. Ubud leads for carved teak and reclaimed-wood dining tables; Seminyak and Canggu lean to contemporary rattan, daybeds and designer collaborations. Kerobokan blends factory-direct workshops with the crating trade.

Lock in three things before you pay:

• Exact outer dimensions in centimetres for every piece — CBM drives the whole quote.
• Whether the timber is kiln-dried; damp wood can crack in a cold destination climate.
• The species and any SVLK or FSC paperwork, especially for teak headed to the EU.

Buying from several showrooms? The desk can pool them into one crate.

A handful of pieces? LCL shares a container and you pay per CBM. Fill a room or a villa and a full container usually costs less per piece. There is no minimum order — LCL starts from 1 CBM, and a multi-item load is its CBM count times the band.

Figures are indicative and subject to change; the trade desk confirms final scope per quote.

ISPM-15 keeps your crate from being turned back at the border. Per the IPPC/FAO standard, solid-wood packaging thicker than 6 mm must be debarked and treated — heat to a 56 °C core for at least 30 continuous minutes, or methyl bromide fumigation — then marked, preferably on two opposing faces.

Australia’s Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry confirms it covers coniferous and non-coniferous raw wood packaging: pallets, dunnage, crating, cases, packing blocks and skids. The rule governs the packaging, not the furniture.

Crating is where cheap shipping goes wrong — ask how your pieces will be braced and marked.

Paperwork turns a crate into a legally importable consignment. The core set travels with almost every shipment; destination filings sit on top.

One missing line can hold a whole crate, so the desk pre-checks your documents first.

USA. The de minimis exemption for Indonesia was suspended by Executive Order in August 2025, so all commercial shipments now incur duties and customs processing. Wood furniture falls under Lacey Act phase VII (effective 1 December 2024) and TSCA Title VI, typically requiring a CBP entry, an Importer Security Filing and a Lacey Act declaration.

EU. ISPM-15 applies to wood packaging from non-EU countries, and timber-legality and deforestation controls are tightening — Indonesian teak commonly relies on SVLK or FSC documentation.

Australia. Biosecurity inspection applies, but it is generally the fastest lane at 4–8 weeks.

The World Customs Organization has signalled no Harmonized System overhaul until HS 2027, which may reshuffle furniture tariff codes. For expats only: Indonesia’s duty-free household-goods relief, linked to PMK 25/2025, narrows from mid-2026 largely to qualifying students and employees — it governs goods entering Indonesia, not new furniture leaving.
