Advisory and execution in one place: market entry and expansion, trade and regulatory compliance, Indonesian trade facilitation schemes, and the freight that follows.
What we do
Most shipments stall on documents rather than on freight. We work on both sides of that line.
Market entry · Sourcing · Structure
For multinationals entering or expanding in Indonesia, and for Indonesian producers selling abroad: how to structure the trade, where the duty falls, which route and which counterparty make sense.
Permits · Registrations · PIB / PEB
Which Indonesian rules apply to your goods, the import licences and registrations that follow from them, and the declarations themselves. Classification and valuation are settled before filing rather than argued after the fact.
Bonded zones · KITE · AEO
Assessment and implementation of the Indonesian facilities your operation qualifies for, from bonded zones and KITE through to AEO accreditation, so landed cost drops instead of duty simply being paid.
FCL / LCL · Air · Door to door
Booking, consolidation and delivery arranged alongside the documents, so nobody has to explain the shipment twice.
Why Fregata
Fregata sits inside a group that exports commodities of its own. The advice comes from people who have filed the documents, not read about them.
Certified capability in house, so classification, valuation and clearance questions are settled internally instead of passed to a third party.
Consultants do not move cargo, and forwarders rarely know the facilities. Here both sit under one roof, and under one point of contact.
Selected work
Compliance programme
A new HS master database built to current parameters and regulations, procedures rewritten around it, and KITE implemented.
Customs valuation
Royalties and licence fees, assists, and proceeds of resale: which additions apply, and how each is calculated.
Classification
Composition, function and form tested against the headings and the interpretative rules, rather than matched to a product name.
Palm oil exports
Duty and the plantation fund levy against the month’s reference price, and the export proceeds that have to stay onshore.
Investment facility
The BKPM masterlist prepared and carried through, so the machinery clears without duty, and the goods and materials for the first two years of production with it.
Market entry
Route to retail, the warehouse, and the licences and permits the operation needed before it could open.
Europe
Pricing against landed cost and local benchmarks, how buyers there actually buy, and the due diligence the market now demands.
In progress
Finding and qualifying buyers abroad, with the specification and documents made ready to meet them.
In progress
Specification, documents and route settled before the first commercial shipment is booked.
Client names are withheld.

World goods trade is slowing while Indonesia’s keeps setting records. Both change what a shipment costs and what it takes to clear, and that is the ground we work on.

A cost that is too high, a process that keeps stalling, a risk you would rather not carry — anything you want running cleaner than it does now. We come back with what it takes, what it costs, and what we would do differently.
