# WTO backs Indonesia on EU’s biodiesel AD duties - PortCalls Asia

> The WTO ruled largely in favour of Indonesia in its challenges to EU anti-dumping duties on Indonesian biodiesel, decided January 25, 2018. Indonesia says the ruling could reopen the EU market for its biodiesel exports. Duties on Indonesian shipments were set at 8.8% to 20.5% in 2013.
