Indonesia Global Trade Core Summary
Indonesia's trade is heavily resource-driven, with mineral fuels (15.5%), animal/vegetable fats (11.3%), and iron/steel (10.6%) dominating exports. Imports focus on machinery (15.5%), electrical equipment (12.8%), and mineral fuels (13.9%), showing reliance on industrial inputs. The top 3 exports account for 37.4% of total exports, indicating moderate concentration. Key takeaways:
- Exports rely on raw materials and semi-processed goods.
- Imports are machinery-heavy, suggesting industrial dependency.
- Mineral fuels appear in both top exports and imports, hinting at refining or re-export activities.
Indonesia Export-Import Structural Gap
Indonesia exports raw materials (fuels, ores, fats) but imports high-value machinery and electrical goods. This gap shows an economy strong in resources but needing foreign technology. Overlap in mineral fuels (HS 27) suggests processing or energy trade. The lack of finished export goods highlights room for industrial upgrading, especially in machinery (HS 84) where imports far outpace exports. Trade data reveals a classic resource-exporting profile with manufacturing gaps.

Indonesia Global Trade Key Patterns
Indonesia’s exports show moderate diversification, with Mainland China as the top destination (23.1%, $15.9B), followed by the U.S. (10.9%, $7.5B) and India (6.8%, $4.7B). The top 10 export markets span Asia (China, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, South Korea, Thailand) and North America (U.S.), indicating a regional focus with global reach. Imports are heavily concentrated in Mainland China (35.6%, $21.4B), with Singapore (8.4%, $5.1B) and Japan (6.4%, $3.9B) as secondary suppliers. Key asymmetries:
- Exports are more evenly distributed than imports, which rely heavily on China.
- Regional trade dominates both flows, with ASEAN (Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam) and East Asia (China, Japan, South Korea) as critical partners.
- Overlap exists (China, Singapore, Japan, U.S., Malaysia, Thailand, South Korea, Vietnam), suggesting processing trade or bilateral supply chains.
Indonesia Export–Import Geographic Gap
Exports target diversified markets, while imports depend heavily on China, revealing upstream dependency and downstream diversification. The U.S. and India are major export destinations but minor import sources, indicating demand-driven trade with these economies. Overlapping countries in both lists (e.g., China, Singapore, Japan) point to integrated regional supply chains. The structure suggests Indonesia relies on a few key suppliers (especially China) but sells broadly across Asia and beyond. This gap highlights vulnerability in import sourcing despite export market resilience.
