Halal certification required for meat imports

Details

Indonesia requires halal certification for all meat products. Non-halal meat (pork products) can be brought in small personal quantities but must be declared. Fresh meat from most countries is prohibited due to animal health concerns. Beef imports follow specific country approval lists. Enforcement in Indonesia carries fines from IDR 1,000,000 to IDR 100,000,000 under Law No. 17/2006 on Customs Art. 82 (typical personal cases are handled as civil infringements).

Leaving with this item

Meat products for personal consumption may face export limits from Indonesia for animal-health documentation reasons; commercial quantities require an Export Health Certificate.

Practical advice

Declare all meat products. Non-halal items may be questioned. Fresh meat is generally refused. If unsure, declare on arrival — declared goods at worst attract duty or surrender, while undeclared goods found in screening are seized and fined.
