How to Import Brazilian Chicken Paws into Indonesia

Indonesia brings in large monthly volumes of frozen chicken paws, and halal certification sits at the center of every shipment — alongside import permits and Tanjung Priok clearance.

Halal certification is central to the process

Indonesia operates a mandatory halal assurance system administered by BPJPH, with religious certification input from MUI. Frozen chicken paws sourced for the Indonesian market must come from a Brazilian plant holding valid halal certification recognized under this system — see our SIF, GACC & halal guide for how halal certification is issued and verified alongside SIF registration.

Import permits and health certification

Beyond halal status, importers need the applicable import permit or recommendation issued by the Indonesian authorities, plus the standard veterinary health certificate confirming the shipment's origin, plant and condition. Cargo discharges at Tanjung Priok, the port of Jakarta, under CIF reefer terms.

Buying in volume

Indonesian buyers frequently structure purchases as recurring container programs rather than one-off orders, reflecting the steady, high-volume nature of local demand. Our halal chicken paws supplier page covers how Duna structures halal-certified supply for markets like Indonesia.
