Indonesia: Indonesia Curbing Palm Waste Exports - Discouraging CPO Mixture Practices

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   ID2025-0009
In January 2025, the Government of Indonesia (GOI) enacted a new regulation to curb exports of palm waste products, citing that they have already exceeded the “reasonable capacity,” in the hopes of shoring up feed stock supplies for domestic cooking oil and biofuels production. This measure is also an attempt to halt “mixture practices” of blending crude palm oil (CPO) with palm waste exports to circumvent the once higher CPO export levy and take advantage of foreign demand for waste-based feedstocks.
