Bank Indonesia Cuts Reporting Threshold for Dollar Transactions to Support Rupiah Stability

Jakarta — Bank Indonesia (BI) has implemented changes to foreign exchange reporting requirements by reducing the transaction threshold requiring supporting documentation.

Governor Perry Warjiyo stated that the strengthening of foreign exchange reporting (LLD) regulations involves adjusting the threshold for mandatory supporting documents on outbound foreign currency transfers from USD 100,000 to USD 50,000.

“Strengthening foreign exchange reporting requirements (LLD) through adjusting the threshold for mandatory supporting documents on outbound foreign currency transfers from USD 100,000 to USD 50,000,” said Perry during a press conference on the results of the BI Board of Governors meeting in Jakarta on Tuesday, 17 March 2026.

Perry noted that the new provisions, which will take effect in April 2026, are accompanied by strengthening of other foreign exchange market transaction policies to support rupiah exchange rate stability.

These include adjusting the threshold for cash foreign exchange purchases against the rupiah from USD 100,000 per entity per month to USD 50,000 per entity per month.

Additionally, there is an increase in the DNDF/Forward sale threshold from USD 5 million per transaction to USD 10 million per transaction, and an increase in the buy and sell Swap threshold from USD 5 million to USD 10 million per transaction.
