Most quotes hide the route. Ours begins with it: Denpasar warehouse → truck to Surabaya → feeder to Singapore → mainline to your port. Every leg, every named charge, every Incoterm handover — plotted before you commit a single dollar.
Voyage Tracer
Plot your shipment, leg by leg
Pick a mode, a lane and an Incoterm. The Tracer briefs the honest route — including the Surabaya line-haul and Singapore transshipment most brokers never mention — with the charges on each leg and who bears them. It outputs a briefing, not a price: no totals, no invented numbers.

Questions honest forwarders get asked
Why does my LCL shipment go via Surabaya and Singapore?
Bali has no direct mainline container services. Shared LCL containers truck overland to Tanjung Perak (Surabaya), feed to Singapore, then join a mainline vessel. Every Bali forwarder uses this routing — we are simply the desk that plots it for you instead of hiding it.
What is actually inside a Bali freight quote?
Pickup trucking, packing and ISPM-15 crating, the Bali–Surabaya line-haul, origin THC, PEB customs entry, and ocean or air freight — plus destination charges shown by Incoterm. The full anatomy is in the ledger above and in the 2026 rates guide.
Which Incoterm should a first-time buyer use?
Most first-time buyers pick CIF for one origin-side bill, or DAP/DDP if they want cargo delivered to the door. Flip the chips above, or run your lane through the Voyage Tracer to see the handover — details in the CIF guide.
How long does shipping from Bali to the USA take?
As of Q3 2026: LCL runs 28–38 days door-to-door including the Surabaya line-haul and Singapore transshipment; FCL 27–37 days; air 5–9 days. Anyone quoting much less is quoting port-to-port and leaving out the legs.
Do I need cargo insurance?
It is optional but we recommend it: marine cargo cover typically runs around 2% of declared value and covers every leg of the voyage. See the cargo cover guide.
