Indonesia has strengthened oversight of its value-added alloys such as frronickel, ferrosilicon, ferrochrome, ferromanganese, ferrotitanium,ferrovanadium, ferrotungsten etc under Ministry of Finance Decree No. 32/MK/BC/2026, implementing Minister of Trade Regulation No. 17/2026. According to this document, starting January 1, 2027, exports may only be made by state-owned exporting companies.
