UPDATE ON EXPORT BAN ON RAW MINERALS AND ORE - RITA SUSANTO


COALspot.com - In May 2012, the Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources (“MoEMR”) in Regulation No.7 (“Reg-7”, amended by Regulation No.11), introduced an export ban for unprocessed ore. This was for the intended purpose of ensuring an adequate supply of minerals for the domestic market and encouraging the development of domestic processing facilities. Further implementing regulations were issued during the year to provide more guidance on the requirements on the export of minerals.

In mid 2012, the Indonesian Nickel Association filed a judicial review to the Supreme Court against the restrictions imposed in Reg-7. A decision was issued in September, where the Supreme Court revoked several Articles in Reg-7 (being Articles 8(3), 9(3), 10(1) and 21). The exact details of the relevant decision however have not been made publicly available by the Supreme Court to date.

The first three articles that were revoked (i.e. Articles 8(3), 9(3) and 10(1)) mainly dealt with the requirement for approval from the Director General of Minerals and Coal (“DGMC”) in respect of “cooperation” for minerals processing and the need for consultation with the DGMC if the project is not economic or cooperation is not viable.

Article 21 dealt with the export ban on raw minerals and ore with effect from 6 May 2012. With the revocation of this article, the export ban is effectively lifted but it appears that the other requirements in relation to the export of raw minerals and ore are still in force (for example, the need for an export permit from the Ministry of Trade, an export “recommendation” from the DGMC and the payment of a 20% export duty).

In response to the above, the MoEMR is currently drafting a new regulation to govern this area. We will provide an update on the details of the Supreme Court decision, and the revised MoEMR regulation, in a future.
