UK Conducts Transitional Review of Indonesian Biodiesel Imports

The UK Trade Remedies Agency (TRA) has initiated a transitional review of Indonesia’s countervailing measures on biodiesel.

The measure, which was inherited from the EU, is due to expire on 10 December 2024.TRA’s review will examine the effectiveness of the measure in protecting UK biodiesel producers from unfair trade practices associated with subsidies provided to Indonesian biodiesel producers.

The review period will focus on imports between 1 October 2023 and 30 September 2024.

Currently, imports of biodiesel from Indonesia are subject to tariffs ranging from 8 to 18 per cent.

Businesses potentially affected by this measure have until 23 December to register their interest through our public documents. Stakeholders registering after this date may not be able to fully participate in the review.
