In today’s global economy, businesses engaged in cross-border trade must navigate increasingly complex customs laws and trade regulations. With shifting policies, stringent compliance requirements, and potential financial and reputational risks, having the right legal partner is crucial. Our Customs and Trade practice is dedicated to helping clients operate seamlessly in the Indonesian and international marketplace by providing clear, practical, and business-oriented legal solutions.
We advise domestic and multinational companies on a wide range of issues, including customs compliance, tariff classification, import/export licensing, free trade agreements, and customs disputes. Our team works closely with businesses to ensure accurate documentation, efficient clearance of goods, and full compliance with Indonesian customs regulations, thereby reducing delays, penalties, and unnecessary costs.
Beyond compliance, we also assist clients in optimizing their trade strategies by identifying opportunities under free trade agreements, structuring supply chains for efficiency, and advising on cross-border investments. For companies facing challenges such as audits, investigations, or disputes with customs authorities, we provide strong representation and negotiation support to protect their interests.
