Appliances Shipping Cost from Bali to Tokyo

Shipping to Japan costs vary widely, from under $30 for small, slow USPS options to over $100 for fast courier services, depending on weight, speed (days vs. weeks), and carrier, with light items around $25-$40 and heavier parcels costing more, plus potential customs duties. Expect around $25-$35 for basic delivery with USPS Priority Mail for small boxes, while UPS, FedEx, or DHL offer 2-5 day service for $55-$150+ for heavier items, with rates increasing with weight.

Shipping from Indonesia to the US varies greatly by method: Air freight takes about 1-2 weeks (8-17 days), while Sea freight (container shipping) is much slower, typically 4-6 weeks (27-40+ days) for port-to-port, and even longer for door-to-door delivery, with overall times up to 55-60 days due to customs and logistics. Express options can be as fast as 1-4 days, but cost significantly more.

Customs duties in Indonesia are determined based on the Customs Value (FOB), which is the cost of your goods plus freight and insurance. This is then combined with any applicable taxes such as Value-Added Tax (VAT) or Anti-Dumping Tax, characterized by specific tax rates. Here's a bit of number-crunching to illustrate.
