Indonesia is set to fully roll out its centralized "single-door" export system for key strategic natural resources by the end of December 2026, Trade Minister Budi Santoso said on September 22, 2026.

Under Government Regulation (PP) No. 24 of 2026, state-owned company PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (DSI) was set up to run and supervise the single-channel export mechanism, which currently covers coal, palm oil and ferroalloys.

"I think it is good; everything is proceeding well, though we are still in a transition phase," Budi told reporters in Jakarta. "The transition runs until December 31, so we will wait to see the overall performance," he added.

The Trade Ministry is continuing talks with PT DSI as the company gets its operational framework ready before the year-end deadline.

Introduced on June 1, 2026, the single-door policy aims to improve national control over high-value exports and foreign exchange earnings (DHE).

It is also intended to boost Indonesia's bargaining position in global trade, stabilize the rupiah, contain inflation and support wider macroeconomic growth.

Data from the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs shows that PT DSI reviewed around 6,500 export declarations (PEB) in its first three months of operation.

These covered more than US$14 billion in trade value and over 90 million tons of commodities sent to more than 100 destination countries.

"We are continuing to discuss the appropriate format, but DSI is currently in the process of preparing itself," Budi said.

The Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, along with relevant ministries, is assessing the initial transition phase to prepare for later stages once the transition period ends in late 2026.
