Here’s what you need to know about air freight shipping costs from India to Indonesia.

How Air Freight from India to Indonesia Works

Shipping by air is fast and efficient, but every step must be carefully managed:

Cargo Pickup & Packaging

We coordinate cargo pickup from your facility and verify that packaging meets IATA and airline standards.

Proper packaging minimizes volumetric weight and helps reduce shipping costs.

Cargo Inspection & Weighing

All shipments are weighed and measured to determine the chargeable weight — based on either actual or dimensional weight, whichever is greater.

Optimizing packaging can result in significant savings.

Export Customs Clearance in India

Our team prepares the necessary export documents (invoice, packing list, airway bill, etc.), classifies goods with correct HS codes, and processes export clearance through Indian Customs.

Flight Booking & Loading

We reserve cargo space on direct or connecting flights from major Indian airports, based on your delivery timeline, cargo type, and budget.

Import Clearance & Final Delivery in Indonesia

Upon arrival, our Indonesian partners handle customs clearance and arrange last-mile delivery to your consignee in Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan, or any other city.

Additional Costs to Consider

While air freight is billed per kg, the total cost includes several variable charges:

  • Fuel Surcharges: Fluctuate monthly based on aviation fuel prices
  • Terminal Handling Charges (THC): For airport ground services
  • Security Screening Fees: Mandatory for all outbound air cargo
  • Customs Brokerage: For import/export documentation processing
  • Insurance: Optional but strongly recommended for high-value cargo

Tip: Skipping insurance may lower the initial cost but poses a risk of full financial loss in case of cargo damage, theft, or flight disruption.
