Indonesia: Indonesia Expands Import Licensing to Six Commodities Including Soybean Meal

Beginning on May 8, 2026, Indonesia will require import licenses for soybean meal, wheat for feed, broken rice for feed, mung beans, pears, and peanuts. However, transitional provisions allow shipments that were loaded prior to entry into force to proceed without being subject to the new requirements. The regulation supports the Prabowo administration's food self-sufficiency and import substitution goals. This report outlines the specific import licensing requirements, which differ by commodity, and the anticipated impact on U.S. agricultural exports.
