  • Why has India imposed higher import tariffs on Indonesian palm oil?
  • Since January 2019, India has imposed higher import tariffs on Indonesian refined, bleached, deodorised palm oil (RBDPO) than those imposed on Indonesia’s main competitor Malaysia. This tariff policy weakened Indonesia’s exports, given that India is Indonesia’s third-largest export destination for palm oil.
  • What are the changes to import duty on palm oil?
  • Import duty on refined grades of palm oil, soybean oil and sunflower oil has been cut to 32.5% from 37.5%. In a separate notification, the government increased the agriculture infrastructure and development cess on crude palm oil to 20% from the earlier 17.5%. The move will reduce prices, experts said.
  • Which country exports the most palm oil to Indonesia?
  • In recent years, palm oil has become a crucial product driving economic relations between the two countries. In 2018, India ranked as Indonesia’s largest palm oil export destination after the European Union (EU) and China (GAPKI 2019).
  • Why did Indonesia impose a ban on palm oil exports in 2022?
  • Indonesia's government imposed a temporary ban on palm oil exports between the end of April and mid-May 2022 (which has now been reversed). This ban, along with similar bans on wheat exports by India and the expected lower wheat harvest in the 2022/23 production season, have added renewed upside pressures to agricultural commodity prices.
  • Will Indonesia cut down on palm oil consumption?
  • It looks many will have to cut down on their palm oil consumption because Indonesia, the world's largest exporter, has now announced that it will no longer be selling its stocks for export . The move is designed to counter the rising prices of domestic cooking oil.
  • Will India reduce palm oil tariffs in RCEP?
  • Indonesia has already asked India to reduce palm oil tariffs as a provision within RCEP, although India insisted on excluding the product during negotiations. Despite the impor-tance of palm oil for Indonesia, India would appear to be reluctant to discuss the topic.
