Jakarta (ANTARA) – Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, Airlangga Hartarto, announced that natural resource exporters will be required to report export activities to PT Danantara Sumberdaya Indonesia (DSI) starting June 1, 2026.This reporting will be carried out through the Customs Excise Information System and Automation (CEISA) 4.0 platform of the Directorate General of Customs and Excise of the Ministry of Finance.Previously, exporting companies were only required to report to the Directorate General of Customs and Excise.”It will take effect tomorrow, June 1, 2026, as a transitional period during which export activities will continue as usual for the companies concerned. However, (there is) an obligation for exporting companies to report their export activities through or to PT DSI,” Hartarto remarked on Sunday.The initial implementation of the new reporting mechanism will begin with three export commodities: coal, ferroalloys, and palm oil.He explained that the three commodities were selected as they have been key drivers of Indonesia’s trade balance surplus for 71 consecutive months up to March 2026.In 2025, these three commodities contributed US$66.13 billion in export value, equivalent to 23.4 percent of total national exports.This achievement includes coal exports of US$24.48 billion, palm oil at US$24.42 billion, and ferroalloys at US$16.49 billion.According to Hartarto, the government will assess the new mechanism throughout its initial three months of implementation before proceeding with full implementation on January 1, 2027.Entrepreneurs and exporters are expected to have sufficient time to adjust during the six-month transition period to the new export reporting mechanism, the minister added.”This policy is expected to maintain business certainty, ensure the flow of goods, ensure export realization, and respect the existing contract. This refers to the agreement between exporters and their trading partners,” he continued.He addressed that the centralized export regulation and reporting through DSI aims to strengthen oversight and maintain the quality and validity of export data.This measure is primarily intended to prevent under-invoicing, transfer pricing, and the misappropriation of foreign exchange from export proceeds.”The government is committed to maintain and ensure a smooth and measurable transition, ensuring a secure business climate, and enhancing Indonesia's trust in trading partners in various countries,” Hartarto remarked.Earlier, DSI has been entrusted with a specific government mandate to manage and supervise export transactions involving strategic natural resource commodities, initially focusing on coal, crude palm oil (CPO), and ferroalloys.
