Which specific palm oil and coal products are covered under Indonesia's new export regime?

The new export regime covers crude palm oil, refined, bleached and deodorized (RBD) palm oil, RBD olein (commonly used as cooking oil), used cooking oil, and palm oil mill effluent. For coal, it includes anthracite, bituminous coal, and both agglomerated and non-agglomerated lignite and peat.

What is the role of the new state-owned entity PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia during and after the transition period?

During the transition period (until Dec. 31), exporters must electronically submit transaction reports to PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia but may continue shipping as usual; after full implementation on Jan. 1, the firm will take over the entire export process—including contracts, shipping, and payments—and determine commodity prices using a transparent, transaction-based methodology to prevent manipulation.
