Procedures & Responsibilities
Importing goods from Bali is a smooth and stress-free process. Just follow the procedures below and you can enjoy a fabulous holiday knowing that your goods are going to arrive home to your door safely.
How It Works
Once you have arranged your trip just let us know and we can advise you on the procedures of what to, and what not to buy, what you can, and what you cannot import, and how to get the best products at the best prices.
A few weeks before you leave you can contact IndoStyle and we will arrange a day and time for one of our tour guides to take you shopping. Also, let us know the products you wish to buy so that the tour guide can formulate an appropriate itinerary.
Our tour guide will arrange to collect you from your hotel and take you to the areas where these suppliers can be found. You can also shop on your own and email or post your invoices to us on your return (please make sure the supplier’s contact details are on the invoice).
If you are concerned about how much space your orders will take, just ask the shop owner/manufacturer but we will confirm the exact amount at the time of packing. Please pay for your purchases and tour guide but the freight costs are paid in Australia.
Make sure that all details are on the invoice, and if you have special requirements make sure that they are written on the invoice and that the tour guide understands your requirements. You can also pay the tour guide to do any quality control if you are concerned.
Procedures
