Fuel Pricing Policies

Local Currency: IDR
Exchange Rate: 1158.7


(2010/11/17)

Last Update:

"Pricing policy: Government initiated administered official price adjustments at the end of 2005. Direct budgetary subsidies for imported fuels (except kerosene) were eliminated in 2007. Indirect subsidies for domestic crude/products were reduced from 10.5% of GDP in 2006 to 1.5% in 2009, but remain (source IMF).

Consequences of subsidies: Large differences between black market and official prices persist."
