Agarwood Export Bali is the home of Agarwood Export, a CITES-honest, plantation-first Indonesian sourcing broker and information hub operated from Bali by Juara Holding Group. We connect buyers to legal, sustainably grown gaharu chips and oud oil, and we explain how grading, pricing and CITES permits actually work. We are a broker and info hub, not a permit authority.
Most agarwood websites either hide their prices or promise things no honest trader can deliver. We built this brand to do the opposite: publish one clear price band, explain the grading logic behind it, and walk you through the legal export path step by step. Aquilaria is listed under CITES Appendix II, so legal export requires a CITES permit and a BKSDA recommendation. Confirm current requirements with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia) and your import country before you commit to any shipment.
Who runs Agarwood Export Bali?
Agarwood Export is operated by Juara Holding Group, an Indonesian trade desk based in Bali that arranges sourcing, sampling and export logistics through vetted, licensed partners. We are the coordinator between plantation-side suppliers and international buyers in the Gulf, China and beyond. We are not the plantation owner and not a licensed legal, customs or financial adviser, so compliance work is arranged via qualified partners rather than promised by us.
Agarwood Export is part of Juara Holding Group, a Bali-based Indonesian group operating from Bali across Indonesia since 2015. That gives this brand real logistics reach and supplier relationships. To be precise: 2015 is the founding year of the parent group, not of this website, and we never claim otherwise.
Why plantation-first, and why CITES-honest?
The gap between wild and plantation agarwood is enormous. Market commentary in 2026 notes that superior pure wild agarwood can reach around US$290,000 per kilogram, while artificial or plantation material may sit near US$100 per kilogram. That spread tempts sellers to pass off cultivated wood as wild, or to move undocumented wild stock. We refuse both.
Our position is simple. We source plantation-grown, artificially propagated material wherever possible, and we never promote or facilitate illegal wild-harvest. CITES paperwork distinguishes source code W (wild) from source code P (plantation or artificially propagated), and plantation material is generally easier to permit and far more sustainable. Indonesia’s 2024 Non-Detriment Finding set a wild Aquilaria malaccensis quota of just 24,110 kilograms nationwide, which is one reason a plantation-first supply chain is the durable choice, not a marketing slogan.
We know this material well. Indonesian chips are commonly described across roughly nine grades, with the key tiers being Super A, Super B, Super C and Sabak; the remaining grades mostly denote wood size and resin quantity. Grading rests on three objective criteria you can test yourself:
- Density — tested by water immersion. Wood that sinks carries more resin and grades higher.
- Resin saturation — genuine black-brown “tiger-stripe” veining, not a uniform, plastic-like black.
- Aromatic intensity — assessed by hot-plate or steam testing; higher resin content tracks stronger fragrance and higher density.
These are industry conventions that vary by region and tradition, not an official Indonesian national standard, and we say so plainly.
What does our price transparency actually cover?
Agarwood pricing is a grade-dependent band, never a single number. Anyone quoting you one flat figure is guessing. Here is the canonical band we publish on every page.
| Product | Indicative price band (as of 2026) | What moves the number |
|---|---|---|
| Plantation agarwood chips | USD 500-7,000 per kg | Grade from low-resin to super; density, resin saturation, aroma |
| Oud / agarwood oil | USD 30,000-80,000 per kg | Distillation yield, purity, feedstock grade |
These figures are indicative; a final quote confirms grade and scope. For context, buyer guides quote Indonesian chips at roughly USD 5–15 per 10 g for low grade (C/D), USD 20–60 per 10 g for mid grade (B/A) and USD 100–300+ per 10 g for premium Super A, with natural oud oil at USD 200–1,000+ per ml. History shows how far the trade has moved: TRAFFIC’s report “Heart of the Matter: Agarwood Use and Trade” recorded field data from Apau Kayan, East Kalimantan in 1997, where “super grade A” agarwood was reported at IDR 1,250,000 per kilogram, about USD 450 per kilogram at the time.
On origin, wild agarwood from Papua and Maluku is regarded as typically superior, and East Kalimantan, notably Apau Kayan, is a documented historical wild-sourcing area. We share Bali as our logistics and coordination base, not as a source of fabricated local price sheets, because no reliable Bali-specific price table exists in credible trade sources.
How does working with our trade desk work?
You do not buy through a checkout. You brief our concierge, and we build a legal, plantation-first option around what you need.
- Tell us your target. Product (chips or oil), grade tier, volume and destination country.
- We map legal options. We match plantation-first suppliers and confirm what CITES source code and documentation your order needs.
- You get an indicative quote within 24 business hours. Grade-banded pricing, sampling options and a realistic compliance timeline.
- Compliance is arranged. CITES export permit and BKSDA recommendation are handled through licensed partners; we coordinate, we do not certify.
- Confirmation and logistics. Final quote locks grade and scope, then export packing and freight are scheduled.
We never sell permit certainty and never guarantee customs clearance. That honesty is the point of this brand.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Agarwood Export Bali and who operates it?
Agarwood Export Bali is the About page of Agarwood Export, an Indonesian agarwood sourcing broker and information hub operated from Bali by Juara Holding Group. It coordinates legal, plantation-first supply of gaharu chips and oud oil between suppliers and international buyers. It is part of Juara Holding Group, a Bali-based group operating across Indonesia since 2015.
Is Agarwood Export Bali a CITES permit authority?
No. We are a sourcing broker and information hub, not a permit authority. Aquilaria is CITES Appendix II, so legal export requires a CITES export permit plus a BKSDA recommendation. We coordinate that work through licensed partners, but you must confirm current requirements with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia) and your import country.
Does Agarwood Export Bali sell wild-harvested agarwood?
We are plantation-first and never promote or facilitate illegal wild-harvest. CITES paperwork separates source code W (wild) from P (plantation), and Indonesia’s 2024 Non-Detriment Finding capped the wild Aquilaria malaccensis quota at 24,110 kg. We prioritise sustainably grown, artificially propagated material that is easier to permit and more durable to supply.
Where is Agarwood Export Bali based, and can it ship beyond Bali?
We coordinate from Bali, but sourcing and export are national. Wild agarwood from Papua and Maluku is regarded as typically superior, and East Kalimantan is a documented historical sourcing area. Bali is our logistics and concierge base for Gulf, China and other export markets, not a source of Bali-only price sheets, which do not reliably exist.
