Foot passengers, hand-carried trade and the constant churn of cross-strait ferries set the rhythm at Sekupang, an international terminal on Batam Island at the Strait of Malacca (UN/LOCODE IDSKP). The 45-minute crossing links it to Singapore's HarbourFront, while feeder boats reach Tanjung Pinang and smaller surrounding islands; immigration and customs are handled on site. Accompanied and light cargo moves with the ferries, but containerised commercial freight and the output of Batam's industrial and shipyard zones go through Batu Ampar, the island's principal cargo port. As part of Batam's free-trade zone, the area follows customs and tax rules that differ from the Indonesian mainland. Road links across the island connect the terminal to the manufacturing estates. For box or project cargo, forwarders normally book Batu Ampar, or Singapore and Tanjung Pelepas across the strait.
