Indonesia-EU Trade Agreement Progresses Towards Ratification

On June 29, 2026, the European Commission presented its proposals on the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) and the Investment Protection Agreement (IPA) with Indonesia to the European Council for their signature and conclusion. Following signature, the agreements will require European Parliament’s consent before they can enter into force. The Indonesian authorities are in parallel going through their own internal ratification procedures. Once ratified, these agreements will remove import duties on 98.5% of tariff lines and simplify export procedures for EU goods to Indonesia, including agri-food exports.
