Indonesia palm oil export tax still zero

JAKARTA: Indonesia will keep its palm oil export tax at zero in January due to low global palm oil prices.

But it may raise slightly base export price for crude palm oil by US$3 to US$418 (US$1 = RM3.47) a tonne in January from December, Diah Maulida, director general of foreign trade at the Trade Ministry said.

"We will keep the palm oil export tax at zero per cent because average prices are still well below US$700 a tonne," Maulida said.

"As for the palm base export prices, they have been agreed in the meeting but we still wait for a Trade Ministry decree," she said. - Reuters

文中所提到的US$700应该不对，新的税务最低征税额是US$550。由于CPO价格在US$550以下，因此明年一月的export tax依旧是0。

较早前我在这里提到明年应该提到的事项，但是我却忽略了一样事情。

印尼明年一月的export tax依旧是0。
