ABOUT MADANG
Madang is the capital of the Madang region in Papua New Guinea. Madang is located on the north-eastern coast of the island of Papua New Guinea.. Madang is located near the mouth of the Gogol river. The population of Madang is approx. 28,000. Madang is also a port capable of handling large commercial vessels. Madang Port handles both 40 and 20 footer containers (dry & reefer) through licensed stevedores. Currently there are 27 x reefer power points available.
No high sea swells inside the harbor all year around. Madang Port has a 300 KVA standby generator for emergency use. Vessels with their bridge or gear height of 24 m or more parallel with airport runway located further west should not anchor at Kranget Island anchorage because this anchorage site is in the ‘roadway’ of aircrafts landing and taking off therefore should prepare to stay adrift outside harbor until further advice by Madang Port Control or Madang Pilot.
Main areas of income for the Madang region is Copra, Cocoa and Coffee, also timber milling, tuna fishing and engineering. Madang has an airport and is a communications point for other remote offshore islands.

In addition to freight and insurance costs, there is also import duties which can, depending on the size of the motor, range from 40%-110% of the vehicles import value. On top of this Import GST of 10% is also collected at the time of import. Add to this broker fees, Quarantine clearance fees, port handling fees, car safety inspection fees and registration fees and this can often double the original purchase price of the vehicle.
Please be aware of all the costs associated with purchasing and importing a vehicle from overseas before you make you purchase. If your vehicle is imported and left at a Customs wharf for over 30 days it is forfeited to the Sate of Papua New Guinea and can be sold or auctioned to recover the duty, GST, and other handling and storage fees owing.
