Australian officials will be advised of Indonesia's procedures for executing Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran at a meeting in Jakarta tomorrow.
The Australian embassy in Jakarta, with a number of other diplomatic missions, has been invited to the meeting at Indonesia's foreign affairs ministry.
An execution date for the BaliNine pair won't be provided but official procedures will be discussed at the meeting.
Ministry spokesman Arrmanatha Nasir said the embassies of Ghana, France, the Philippines and Nigeria - who also have citizens facing execution this month - had been invited.
Among the issues were the 72 hours' notice, access to the prisoners for family, and the conduct of foreign media coverage.

When Indonesia executed five foreign nationals last month, the meeting with relevant embassies took place a day before Attorney-General HM Prasetyo announced the execution date.
That announcement signalled the 72-hour notice period.
But in this case, the prisoners have to be transferred from jails all over Indonesia to the execution location, Nusakambangan island, off Central Java.
Authorities have permission to move Chan and Sukumaran from Bali's Kerobokan jail, but haven't set a date.
A spokeswoman for Foreign Minister Julie Bishop yesterday confirmed the invitation to the Jakarta meeting.

On Friday, Ms Bishop suggested Australians were so moved by the men's plight, they may boycott Indonesia if the executions go ahead.
"I think the Australian people will demonstrate their deep disapproval of this action, including by making decisions about where they wish to holiday," she said.
Calls to boycott the popular Indonesian island of Bali have been growing on social media, and politicians including Ms Bishop have received a flood of letters about the executions.
Chief of corrections in Central Java, Yuspahruddin, said he had received advice that Chan and Sukumaran would be relocated to Batu Prison on Nusakambangan, known as "Indonesia's Alcatraz".
