Trusted Removals to and from Indonesia Regal Moving & Storage

Moving from the UK to Indonesia involves a number of important steps to ensure a smooth transition. If you’re planning to live in Indonesia for an extended period, you’ll need a valid visa such as a KITAS (temporary stay permit), which is commonly issued for work, study, or family reunification. Long-term residents may also need to register with local authorities shortly after arrival.

Customs regulations in Indonesia require a thorough, itemised inventory of your household goods. You may be eligible for duty-free import of used personal effects, providing that you meet specific criteria and present the correct documentation. Restrictions apply to items like electronics, alcohol, and printed materials, so it’s essential to verify regulations before shipping. 

Accommodation options in Indonesia vary widely - from city-centre apartments to gated compounds to traditional homes in suburban or rural areas. In busy cities such as Jakarta, Surabaya, or Bandung, limited parking and tight streets may restrict delivery access, so it’s advisable to plan ahead to avoid logistical challenges on moving day.
