“In the spirit” of simplifying Indonesian regulatory frameworks, the Minister of Trade (MOT) recently issued MOT Regulation No. 18 of 2021 on Goods Prohibited from Being Imported and Exported (“Regulation 18“) to further implement Government Regulation No. 29 of 2021 on the Organization of the Trade Sector.
Before the issuance of Regulation 18, the list of goods prohibited for export and import was scattered amongst various regulations, including (i) MOT Regulation No. 12 of 2020 on Goods Prohibited for Import, (ii) MOT Regulation 45 of 2019 on Goods Prohibited for Export, and (iii) Decree of the Minister of Industry and Trade No. 520/MPP/Kep/8/2003 on the Prohibition on Imports of Hazardous and Toxic Waste. Regulation 18 revokes all of these regulations.
