Based on data released by BPS-Statistics Indonesia, Indonesia recorded a trade surplus totalling USD0.09 billion in April 2026, extending the USD3.32 billion surplus recorded in March 2026. Bank Indonesia views the continued trade surplus as positive for further supporting Indonesia's external resilience. Moving forward, Bank Indonesia will continue strengthening policy synergy with the Government and other relevant authorities to further strengthen external resilience and support sustainable national economic growth.
The continued trade surplus in April 2026 was primarily maintained by a robust non-oil and gas trade surplus. The non-oil and gas trade balance recorded a USD3.53 billion surplus in April 2026 in line with higher non-oil and gas exports amounting to USD24.15 billion. Positive non-oil and gas export performance was mainly supported by exports of natural resource-based commodities, such as fixed animal or vegetable fats and oils as well as mineral fuels, alongside manufacturing products, including electrical machinery and equipment and parts thereof, as well as vehicles and components. By destination country, non-oil and gas exports to China, the United States and India remained the main contributors to Indonesia's exports. On the other hand, the oil and gas trade deficit widened to USD3.44 billion in April 2026 in response to higher oil and gas imports, coupled with lower oil and gas exports.
