Dear all,
Please be advised that Indonesia will adopt ISPM#15 regulations for imported wood packaging material effective from September 2009...
Treated solid wood is to be marked accordingly. In addition it is recommended that shippers provide a signed FCL/LCL Packing Declaration (see attached page 2). This applies to both Sea and Air freight.
Kind regards
