Ministry of Trade issued a new regulation on the Import License (Ministry of Trade No.45/M-DAG/PER/9/2009 which came into effect on January 11, 2010. The Company that holds the Limited Import License or APIT-U must conduct adjustment to this regulation within one (1) year after this law came into effect. With APIT-U, the Company can import goods for the production purposes and import goods for distribution purposes. Now, the Company cannot conduct importation for both purposes. The Company must choose either holds General Import License (“API-U”) or the Producer Import License (“API-P”). The Company that conducts importation of goods for trading or distribution activities must obtain API-U. On other hands, the Company that conducts importation of goods for its own production process must obtain API-P. Under this regulation, the Company may only have one type of import license.

Dear Tashefeen,
You dont have to obtain an import license because you are a buyer. Your supplier must have an export license. The import license of Indonesia is required if an Indonesian company wants to import some goods or raw materials from outside Indonesia.
Your website is very informative. Do you have a legal office in Jakarta?

Hi there , we are company from malaysia, we wish to export our goods to indonesia market, referred to the statement above, we should apply for the the Producer Import License (“API-P”). Could you advice which depart we should refer to ? What is the procedure to apply? May I know How long will it takes to get the licence API-U?
The Indonesian company who wishes to import your products that must apply for import license. The Indonesian imported company must hold APIU because that company doesnt produce the products.
Is that beverage product? Then, the imported company also must obtain a license to distribute it in Indonesia to the National Agency of Food & Drug Control (Badan Pengawas Obat & Makanan).
If the imported company is the ordinary PT (limited liability company), then it must apply the license to Dept of Trade. If the imported company is the PMA (foreign investment company), then it must apply the license to the Coordinating Investment Body (BKPM).
Time of period to obtain APIU is depend on the completeness of the required documents (2-3weeks).
