        "summary": "Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto has named China, the United States, Australia, and Canada as the four nations exempt from Indonesia's new mandatory repatriation rules for natural resource export proceeds. The exemption, based on significant bilateral trade ties, allows exporters from these countries to place a smaller portion of their foreign exchange earnings in domestic accounts. The broader regulation, effective since June 2026, requires 100 percent repatriation and placement in state-owned banks to bolster national reserves and stabilise the rupiah.",
        "content": "<p>Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto has\nrevealed that four countries are exempt from the new regulation on the\nplacement of Natural Resource Export Proceeds (DHE SDA). The decision\nwas made following a coordination meeting with Finance Minister Purbaya\nYudhi Sadewa, Investment Minister Rosan Perkasa Roeslani, and\nrepresentatives from Bank Indonesia on Thursday morning, 23 July 2026.\nAccording to Airlangga, the four countries were selected due to their\nsubstantial bilateral cooperation with Indonesia. \u201cSeveral countries\nwith which we have considerable bilateral ties, such as China, the\nUnited States, then Australia and Canada,\u201d he stated at the Coordinating\nMinistry for Economic Affairs office in Jakarta on Thursday, 23 July\n2026. The new DHE SDA regulation mandates that exporters bring their\nforeign exchange earnings back into the country. The aim is to\nstrengthen national foreign exchange reserves and maintain the stability\nof the rupiah exchange rate. This provision is stipulated in Government\nRegulation (PP) Number 21 of 2026, which came into effect on 1 June\n2026. Under this rule, natural resource exporters are required to\nrepatriate 100 percent of their DHE. Meanwhile, non-oil and gas sector\nexporters must place 100 percent of their natural resource DHE in\nspecial accounts domestically for a minimum of 12 months. This placement\nmust be made through state-owned banks. Despite the strict regulation,\nthe government may grant exemptions or relaxations for certain trading\npartner countries. PP 21 of 2026 stipulates that exporters bound by\nbilateral agreements are permitted to place a portion of their DHE SDA\nin special accounts outside the general provisions. They may place a\nminimum of 30 percent of the foreign exchange funds for three months and\nconduct foreign exchange conversions at banks other than state-owned\nbanks. Deputy for Economic Cooperation and Investment Coordination at\nthe Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, Edi Prio Pambudi, stated\nthat the exemption for these four countries remains subject to review.\nThe review will be conducted every three months. \u201cWe will see how\neffective it is. We must not let there be a reaction that then creates a\nproblem,\u201d he said. Edi stated that today\u2019s DHE meeting was only to\ngather input from all relevant agencies. The relaxation percentage\ngranted may also change. He said the government will be very cautious\nbecause the main objective of this policy is to prevent the rupiah from\ncontinuing to depreciate.<\/p>",
