Import Cars from China to Indonesia
Indonesia drives on the left and requires right-hand-drive (RHD) vehicles for private registration — a real constraint given DriveSino's catalog is sourced from mainland China's domestic market, which is left-hand-drive (LHD) as standard, the same consideration that applies to Malaysia. On top of that, Indonesia applies some of the highest vehicle taxes in Southeast Asia on non-ASEAN-sourced vehicles. Wuling in particular already has a huge presence in Indonesia — but through local manufacturing (SGMW's Indonesian plant), not import, which is worth understanding before assuming a direct-import path applies to that brand specifically.
Contact DriveSino directly with your intended use case before ordering, so we can confirm what's realistically possible.
¿Por Qué Importar de China a Indonesia?
- Be clear on the constraints first: Indonesia requires RHD for private registration, and applies high tax on non-ASEAN vehicle imports — both need checking before you commit, independent of each other
- Wuling's presence is local, not imported: Wuling's popularity in Indonesia comes from local manufacturing, not China-sourced imports — a different model from what DriveSino offers
- BYD and Chery do have real import-market interest: ask DriveSino about RHD sourcing feasibility for your specific model
- Talk to us before ordering: we'll help you understand what's realistically workable for your specific situation

Derechos de Importación e Impuestos para Indonesia
Indonesia applies vehicle taxation that's high relative to most markets DriveSino serves — import duty, a luxury goods tax (PPnBM) that scales with engine size and emissions, and VAT, stacking to a genuinely high total for vehicles from outside ASEAN's preferential trade zone. Combined with the RHD consideration above, we won't publish a specific figure here — contact DriveSino directly to discuss total landed cost and eligibility for your specific, confirmed situation.

Importar Coches de China a Indonesia — Preguntas Frecuentes
Can I import a car from DriveSino's catalog to Indonesia for private use?
Most listings in our catalog are left-hand-drive (LHD), sourced from mainland China's domestic market. Indonesia requires right-hand-drive (RHD) vehicles for private road registration, so most catalog listings are not suited for that purpose. Contact us before ordering to confirm whether your specific situation is workable.
Is Wuling available for import to Indonesia from China?
Wuling's popularity in Indonesia comes from local manufacturing (SGMW's Indonesian plant), not imports from China — a different model from what DriveSino offers. Ask us about BYD or Chery instead, which have real China-sourced import interest.
Does Indonesia use right-hand drive cars?
Yes, Indonesia drives on the left and requires right-hand-drive (RHD) vehicles for private registration.
Is it expensive to import a car from China to Indonesia?
Indonesia applies vehicle taxation that's high relative to most markets DriveSino serves, on vehicles from outside ASEAN's preferential trade zone. Confirm total landed cost with DriveSino before ordering.
Who do I contact to check if my Indonesia import plan is workable?
Contact DriveSino directly via WhatsApp or email with your intended use case before ordering. We'd rather confirm feasibility and cost upfront than have a shipment arrive that can't be registered or costs far more than expected.
