Based on data published by BPS-Statistics Indonesia, Indonesia amassed a trade surplus in July 2025 totalling USD4.17 billion, up from USD4.10 billion in June 2025. Bank Indonesia views the trade surplus positively in terms of further bolstering external economic resilience in Indonesia.  Moving forward, Bank Indonesia will continue strengthening policy synergy with the Government and other relevant authorities to increase external resilience in pursuit of sustainable national economic growth.

The larger trade surplus amassed in July 2025 primarily stemmed from a wider non-oil and gas trade surplus. The non-oil and gas trade balance in July 2025 recorded a USD5.75 billion surplus in line with stronger non-oil and gas export performance, which increased to USD23.81 billion in the reporting period. Solid non-oil and gas exports were predominantly bolstered by exports of commodities based on natural resources, such as mineral fuel and fixed animal/vegetable fats and oils, as well as manufacturing products, including machinery and mechanical appliances and parts. Therefore, along with iron and steel. Based on destination country, non-oil and gas exports bound for China, the United States and India were still the main contributors to Indonesia's export performance. On the other hand, the oil and gas trade deficit widened to USD1.58 billion in July 2025 as a corollary of increasing oil and gas imports and decreasing as oil and gas exports.
