Indonesia Launches NADI: Exporters Must Upload Commercial Contracts Before Export Permits

The new national single window system makes commercial contract upload mandatory for export permits from 1 January 2027 — one of the biggest trade-process changes this year.

Indonesia's Directorate of System Integration has officially launched NADI, a national system that requires exporters to upload commercial contracts before export permits can be issued. The requirement becomes mandatory on 1 January 2027, giving exporters and logistics providers a transition window to adapt their document workflows.

The change is one of the most significant trade-process reforms this year. Exporters will need document-management and OCR capabilities to handle contract digitization at scale — a shift likely to accelerate digital adoption across the logistics and customs ecosystem.
