Pelindo Container Throughput Rises 5.8% to 10.31 Million TEUs in January-September 2026

Pelindo recorded 10.31 million TEUs of container traffic for the first nine months of 2026, up 5.8% year on year, with international flows growing faster than domestic volumes.

Pelindo recorded container traffic of 10.31 million TEUs across its terminal network for January to September 2026, a 5.8% increase compared with the same period last year. The figures were published by the company in early November 2026 and reported by CNN Indonesia and other national media outlets on 3 and 4 November.

International container traffic grew 10.34% year on year, outpacing domestic traffic, which rose 3.57%. The Indonesian freight forwarding and logistics association ALFI/ILFA responded positively to the results, which reflect continued shipping activity on both export and import lanes during the period.

The nine-month disclosure covers international and domestic container flows handled by Pelindo's container terminals. The throughput figures were published alongside other administrative updates from the port operator, including the ACS payment dashboard and the scheduled transfer of non-containerized service billing to the parent company effective 1 December 2026.
