**Gaharu Export is a Bali-based gaharu sourcing broker and information hub operated by Bali Premium Trip, part of Juara Holding Group. We connect Asian and diaspora buyers to graded Indonesian gaharu (agarwood) and oud oil, with transparent grade-based pricing and a legal-first process. We are not a permit authority and not the asset owner.**
Our job is narrow and honest: help serious buyers understand grades, read realistic prices, and move through the legal export pathway for gaharu — the fragrant resinous wood Indonesians call gaharu, with the top resin-saturated heartwood known as gubal and lighter grades as kemedangan. Everything below explains who we are, what we do, and where our limits sit.
Who is Gaharu Export?
Gaharu Export is the local-term authority desk for Indonesian gaharu, built for buyers in the Gulf, China, and the wider diaspora who search in the language of the trade rather than the Western word “agarwood.” We publish grade guides, indicative pricing, and a plain-English map of the CITES and BKSDA permit pathway, then connect qualified buyers to vetted licensed partners for the actual transaction.
We are a broker and information hub — not a plantation, not a licensed exporter, and not a government office. We do not own the wood, we do not issue permits, and we never promise an outcome the authorities control.
What does Gaharu Export do — and what does it not do?
Clear boundaries protect buyers. Here is the split, as of 2026:
| We do | We do not |
|---|---|
| Explain grades: resin content, sinking test, aroma | Issue CITES permits or BKSDA recommendations |
| Share indicative, grade-based pricing | Guarantee customs clearance or permit approval |
| Connect buyers to vetted licensed exporters | Own or warehouse the gaharu ourselves |
| Map the legal export documentation pathway | Sell or promote illegal wild-harvested wood |
| Coordinate grading, sampling, and shipping from Bali | Act as your financial, legal, or tax adviser |
Legal export of Aquilaria — the genus that produces gaharu — matters here, because Aquilaria spp. sits on CITES Appendix II. Legal export requires a CITES permit and a BKSDA (Balai Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam) recommendation, plus proof of legal origin. Confirm current requirements with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia) and your own import country before committing to any shipment. We are plantation-first by policy and will not help move undocumented wild wood.
How is Gaharu Export connected to Juara Holding Group?
Gaharu Export is operated by Bali Premium Trip and forms part of Juara Holding Group, a Bali-based Indonesian group that has operated from Bali across Indonesia since 2015. In schema terms, Juara Holding Group (juaraholding.com) is our parent organization; Gaharu Export is a trade desk under that umbrella, not a separately incorporated 2015 exporter.
That structure gives buyers one accountable point of contact backed by an established group, while keeping the honest framing intact: Bali Premium Trip is an independent concierge and trade desk that arranges sourcing via vetted licensed partners. It is not the asset owner and does not hold your permits.
What grades and prices does Gaharu Export quote?
We publish one grade-dependent price band across the whole site — never a single fake number. These figures are indicative, as of 2026, and every final quote confirms grade and scope.
| Product | Indicative band (as of 2026) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Plantation gaharu chips | USD 500-7,000 / kg | Grade-dependent; cultivated, inoculated stock |
| Oud / agarwood oil | USD 30,000-80,000 / kg | Distilled oil; driven by Gulf perfume and bakhoor demand |
For context, Indonesian grade references map roughly as follows. According to Silvikultur UGM pricing circulated in October 2016, gaharu double super ran Rp 30-40 million/kg and super tanggung Rp 15-30 million/kg, with kemedangan at Rp 2-5 million/kg and gaharu teri Rp 1-2 million/kg. A July 2025 export-grade list from zonakeren.com placed top “Double King” wood near USD 54,688/kg, while general buyers paid Rp 20-30 million/kg. Top-quality reports go higher still: CNBC Indonesia in 2022 cited up to about USD 100,000/kg for the very best material. We quote the realistic band for cultivated, exportable stock rather than headline extremes.
How does sourcing through Gaharu Export work?
Our process is built to keep you legal and informed at every step:
- Enquiry. Message the trade desk with your grade, volume, destination country, and intended use (chips, powder, or oil).
- Grade and price match. We match your brief to available cultivated stock and return an indicative, grade-based quote — usually within 24 business hours.
- Sampling and grading. You review grade evidence: resin saturation, sinking behaviour, and aroma notes, with samples where volume justifies it.
- Documentation pathway. We map the CITES permit, BKSDA recommendation, ASGARIN membership, and legal-origin proof required, and connect you to vetted licensed exporters. A CITES export permit is typically valid up to about six months, and processing can take up to about 60 days for some destinations.
- Shipping from Bali. Coordination, packing, and freight are arranged through licensed partners, with a final quote that confirms grade and scope.
We never sell permit certainty or a customs guarantee — those decisions belong to the authorities, not to us.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Gaharu Export a licensed exporter or permit authority?
No. Gaharu Export is a sourcing broker and information hub, not a permit authority and not the asset owner. Legal export of Aquilaria (CITES Appendix II) requires a CITES permit and a BKSDA recommendation. We help you prepare and connect with vetted licensed partners, but confirm current requirements with the CITES Management Authority (Indonesia) and your import country.
Who operates Gaharu Export and who is behind it?
Gaharu Export is operated by Bali Premium Trip, an independent Bali-based concierge and trade desk, and forms part of Juara Holding Group — a Bali-based Indonesian group operating from Bali across Indonesia since 2015. Enquiries route to one trade desk on WhatsApp 6281128590000 or sales@balipremiumtrip.com, with a 24 business-hour reply target as of 2026.
Does Gaharu Export source gaharu from Bali itself?
No. Bali is our trade and coordination hub, not a production origin — no public source names Bali as a gaharu-producing region. Documented supply comes from Kalimantan, Papua (Jayapura and Merauke), Ambon, and Sumbawa, where Aquilaria trees typically mature over 7 to 15 years. We coordinate grading, documentation, and shipping from Bali.
Can Gaharu Export guarantee my export permit or customs clearance?
No, and we never sell permit certainty or a customs guarantee. Legal origin, a BKSDA recommendation for wild sources, ASGARIN membership, and a CITES export permit (valid up to about six months) are decided by the authorities, not by us. CITES processing can take up to about 60 days for some destinations. We prepare paperwork through vetted licensed partners.
