Presidential Approval: New Mining Royalty Rates Set for Release in June

Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has confirmed that regulations adjusting royalty rates for mining companies, such as coal and nickel, will begin to apply from early June 2026.

Purbaya stated that these regulations have already been discussed with President Prabowo and the presidential regulation (PP) will be issued shortly.

“Possibly starting from early June. If I’m not mistaken, is it June? June,” said Purbaya to reporters on Monday (11/5/2026).

Unfortunately, Purbaya could not yet detail the commodities that will be subject to the rate adjustment. However, he revealed that it is highly likely all mining goods will be subject to the rate adjustment.

“We’ll see later regarding export duties. But according to that, it’s across the board, as Mr Bahlil said when I met him yesterday. Across the board means all mining goods,” he said.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) is preparing a revision to Government Regulation (PP) Number 19 of 2025 on the Types and Rates of Non-Tax State Revenue Applicable to the Ministry of ESDM.

In the material discussed, the regulation will later set adjustments to royalty rates for various mineral and coal commodities such as copper, gold, silver, nickel ore, and tin.

These royalty regulations will be issued in line with the Natural Resource Export Proceeds (DHE) regulations as well as coal and nickel export duty regulations, namely in June 2026.

“If this is probably June. It depends on how quickly the PP is processed. But the discussions are already complete,” he said.
