# Awaiting Final US Ruling over Indonesia's Alleged Biodiesel Dumping | Indonesia Investments

> Indonesian biodiesel stakeholders are awaiting the US Commerce Department's final ruling, scheduled for November 7, 2017, on alleged subsidized biodiesel exports. The US has reduced its allegations from eight to two, and Indonesia's trade ministry continues diplomatic talks. The worst case would be a 45% import duty.

## Why it matters

A final duty on Indonesian biodiesel would cut palm-based biodiesel exports to the US and favor US soybean oil. The narrowed dispute lowers the chance of the worst-case outcome.
