Indonesian police, in collaboration with the Ministry of Trade, confiscated illegal ceramics and tableware worth 9.8 billion Indonesian rupiah. These goods from China were seized at Tanjung Priok Port and a warehouse in Surabaya due to incomplete import documents, such as Business Identification Numbers and inspection reports, failure to follow proper procedures, and lack of Indonesian National Standard labels and valid import permits, potentially harming consumer interests and national rights.
The operation stemmed from findings by the police criminal investigation unit at the Surabaya container terminal, who, together with port, customs, and Ministry of Trade monitoring agencies, conducted inspections and confiscated the goods. The owner of the goods is PT SGD based in Medan. Indonesian authorities will continue to crack down on such illegal goods to maintain market order and protect national and consumer safety.
