Where to stay for Trade Expo Indonesia 2026: the closest hotels to Indonesia Convention Exhibition (ICE) BSD City are in BSD City and Serpong/Alam Sutera, with South Jakarta a short ride away. The fair runs 14 Oct to 18 Oct 2026 and rooms near the venue sell out first, so book a free-cancellation rate early. Add your company name and tax number at checkout for an itemised tax invoice.
Trade Expo Indonesia (TEI) is the country's premier international trade exhibition, organised to showcase Indonesian export products, investment opportunities and business partnerships to global buyers. The 2026 edition is held at ICE BSD City, the Indonesia Convention Exhibition centre in Serpong, Tangerang, on the southwestern edge of the Greater Jakarta area. It is the country's largest convention and exhibition venue, with ten halls and extensive outdoor space. For a business traveller, the location shapes the trip: ICE BSD sits in the planned BSD City township, about 35 minutes by road from Soekarno-Hatta International Airport in light traffic but much longer in Jakarta's notorious congestion. There is a rail option via the airport train and commuter lines to Cisauk station near BSD, but many visitors rely on cars. Staying in BSD City near the venue minimises daily commuting, while central Jakarta offers more hotels and nightlife at the cost of a long, traffic-dependent journey. Booking a hotel close to ICE is the practical choice.

Getting there
From Soekarno-Hatta International Airport (CGK)
- By car, ICE BSD is about 35 minutes away in light traffic via the toll roads (Sedyatmo, JORR W2, Kunciran-Serpong)
- Allow considerably more time during Jakarta's heavy peak congestion
- Airport taxis and ride-hailing (Grab, Gojek) serve the venue directly
By airport train and commuter rail
- Take the Airport Train from CGK to Duri station, transfer to a commuter line toward Tanah Abang, then the Rangkasbitung line to Cisauk station
- From Cisauk, ICE BSD is a short taxi or ride-hail hop
- This avoids road traffic but involves multiple transfers, so allow time
Getting around during Trade Expo Indonesia
Ride-hailing and taxi
- Grab and Gojek are the dominant apps for both cars and motorbike taxis around BSD
- Book in-app to get fixed fares and avoid negotiating; keep the venue name saved
- Traffic peaks around show opening and closing, so build in buffer time
Commuter rail to Cisauk
- The KRL commuter line serves Cisauk station near BSD City, linking to central Jakarta
- From Cisauk, use a short ride-hail to reach ICE BSD
- Rail can beat road traffic on congested days but requires transfers
Visa & entry

- Permitted stays are typically short, so confirm your category before travel
Who needs a visa in advance
