Agarwood Export is a plantation-first, CITES-honest Indonesian agarwood (gaharu) sourcing broker and information hub: chips and oud oil, grading (plantation vs wild), the legal CITES + BKSDA permit pathway, and Gulf/China buyer support. It is a sourcing broker/info hub, NOT a permit authority — legal export requires a CITES permit and a BKSDA recommendation, and requirements should be confirmed with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia) and the import country. Part of Juara Holding Group, an Indonesian group operating from Bali across Indonesia since 2015; enquiries handled by the Juara Holding Group trade desk.

Common questions
Is exporting agarwood from Indonesia legal?
Yes, when done correctly. Aquilaria is CITES Appendix II, so legal export requires a CITES export permit and a BKSDA recommendation, subject to a Non-Detriment Finding. We source only legally documented material (plantation-first) and never facilitate illegal wild-harvest. Confirm current requirements with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia).
How much does Indonesian agarwood cost?
Prices are a grade-dependent band, not a single number. As of 2026, plantation chips run roughly USD 500-7,000/kg depending on grade (low-resin to super), and oud/agarwood oil roughly USD 30,000-80,000/kg. The final quote confirms grade and scope.
What is the difference between plantation and wild agarwood?
Plantation (CITES source code P) material is inoculated on cultivated trees, is easier to permit, and is more sustainable. Wild material (code W) is only exportable within an official NDF quota with full permits. We take a plantation-first approach.
Do you issue the CITES permit?
No. We are a sourcing broker and information hub, not a permit authority. We can help coordinate the documentation, but the CITES export permit is issued by the CITES Management Authority of Indonesia and the BKSDA recommendation by the local conservation office. We never sell permit certainty.
How is agarwood graded?
By resin content, density and aroma. A common test is water immersion — chips that sink hold more resin and grade higher. Grading is an industry convention that varies by region, not an official national standard.
Methodology & data sourcing
Price bands are indicative market ranges, date-stamped 'as of 2026', grade-dependent; the final quote confirms grade and scope. Regulatory statements summarise CITES Appendix II and Indonesian permit practice and are not legal advice — confirm current requirements with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia) and your import country.
