October Trend: Indonesia Lignite Coal Export

Lignite Coal, classified under HS Code 2702 (Lignite, whether or not agglomerated, excluding jet), saw exports decline in October 2025, with value dropping 15.18% MoM to $404.86M and volume falling 15.65% to 9.65B kg. This followed a 6.31% MoM price rebound in September, which failed to sustain momentum as unit prices edged up just 0.56% to $0.04/kg. The downturn aligns with Indonesia's 99% reliance on China for lignite exports, as reported in trade data, highlighting concentrated market risks. Earlier U.S. tariff negotiations, which reduced duties from 32% to 19% in October, appear unrelated to the slump, given China's dominance as the primary buyer. The monthly volatility—including a 57% weight surge in July—reflects ongoing export control adjustments under Permendag regulations.
