Quick Answer

Indonesia is Southeast Asia's largest steel importer: a construction boom across Java and Sumatra, an established fabrication and PEB sector, and buyers who work to JIS and ASTM drawings. We ship H beams, plates, angles and GI/PPGI coil to Jakarta (Tanjung Priok) and Surabaya (Tanjung Perak) on FOB terms — trial orders from 5 tons, mixed sizes in one container, EN 10204 3.1 MTC with every order. Sea freight runs about 7–14 days from South China. Send your size list for a FOB quote in 24 hours.

Indonesian importers and fabricators buying structural steel care about three things: grades that match the drawing (JIS SS400/SM490 and ASTM designations are common), landed cost versus local mill pricing, and paperwork that clears Indonesian customs — including the SNI position for their HS code. Here is exactly how a Nikasteel order to Indonesia works.

Popular Sizes & Grades for Indonesian Projects

ApplicationTypical sectionsGrades
Warehouses & pre-engineered buildingsJIS H 200–400, HW/HM columns, HN beamsSS400, SM490, Q235B/Q355B
High-rise & infrastructure (Jakarta, Surabaya)W-series beams, plates 8–60 mmA36, A572 Gr.50, Q355B
Fabrication & machinery basesPlates, channels, anglesSS400, A36, Q235B
Roofing & claddingPPGI corrugated sheets, GI coilSGCC, DX51D+Z, galvalume AZ

Indonesian drawings usually carry JIS or ASTM designations — both map cleanly across standards (SS400 ≈ A36 ≈ Q235B; SM490 ≈ A572 Gr.50 ≈ Q355B). The full cross-reference is in our grade equivalents guide, and we state the supplied grade on the EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate. Working in stainless? See the 304/316L equivalents chart.

Shipping: Jakarta & Surabaya

  • Sea freight (via your forwarder): about 7–14 days from Huangpu/Nansha/Shekou to Jakarta (Tanjung Priok); Surabaya (Tanjung Perak) usually +2–4 days, weekly sailings
  • Customs: allow a few days at the Indonesian port; your importer's agent handles entry, import license (API) and SNI verification where the product line requires it
  • Documents: B/L, commercial invoice, packing list, EN 10204 3.1 MTC, and certificate of origin — send your HS code first so we confirm the document set and your agent confirms the SNI position before you order

Order Process for Indonesian Buyers

  1. Send your size list or drawing by WhatsApp or email
  2. FOB quote within 24 hours — price locked 7 days
  3. 50% T/T deposit → production (stocked sizes ship in 7–15 days)
  4. Loading with photos/videos + SGS/BV inspection on request
  5. Balance before shipment → originals by courier

Trial order, low risk

Start with 5 tons mixed in one container — several sizes, even several categories (beam + plate + GI coil), so you can verify quality, packing and documents before scaling up.

Why Indonesian buyers choose Nikasteel

Mill-direct pricing from Tangshan & Maanshan groups, JIS/ASTM/GB supply with the grade certified on the MTC, and one English-speaking contact from quote to B/L — no middlemen.
