Airlangga: Government to Transfer Customs Export Data to Danantara

Jakarta – Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said the government will transfer export data available in the Directorate General of Customs and Excise (DJBC) system of the Ministry of Finance to the Danantara Investment Management Agency (BPI Danantara). In line with the implementation of the assignment to PT Danantara Sumber Daya Indonesia (DSI), Airlangga said Customs would also participate in the process of maturing the export-specific tasks of the state-owned enterprise. He noted that export data to date has been available in the Customs system and the Indonesia National Single Window (INSW), an integrated one-stop digital platform to manage licensing, customs, and documents related to export and import. The data in question include information on exporters, owners of goods, importers, and even owners of goods in the destination country. These data will be added into the Danantara system. Thus, Danantara can have the database needed to perform its function in export governance. “Adding the data. So those data will also be entered into Danantara,” Airlangga said at the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs, Jakarta, Thursday, 21 May 2026. For information, PT DSI, which becomes the state-owned enterprise dedicated to exports, will operate in two stages. The first stage runs from 1 June to 31 December 2026, in which DSI will act as evaluator and intermediary for sellers and buyers for certain commodities to be exported. Subsequently, from January 2027, DSI will transform into a trading company that buys commodities directly from exporters, holds the goods, and bears the trading risk before selling them to the international market. The proceeds from the sales will then be returned wholly to Indonesia. (Ant).
