Indonesia international trade and investment expansion

Overview

Indonesia is actively expanding its international trade and investment partnerships across several regions. In Southeast Asia, Indonesia and Thailand have launched a business matching program through Bangkok Bank and Permata Bank to strengthen regional supply chains and increase bilateral trade to US$23 billion by 2030, focusing on sectors such as food security, green energy, and electric vehicle ecosystems.

Simultaneously, Indonesia is deepening economic ties with the United States and Germany. Discussions with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have focused on downstream industries, renewable energy, and rare earth metals. Meanwhile, cooperation with Germany has centered on industrial technology, solar energy, and the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP). Indonesia also continues to negotiate the Indonesia-European Union Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (IEU-CEPA), which is expected to impact sectors such as the German automotive industry through potential tariff reductions.
