> Indonesia’s Palm Oil Association urged the government to keep proposed service fees under Danantara’s one-stop export mechanism from adding to existing export fees, duties, and domestic market obligations.

## Why it matters

Additional service fees or export delays could raise exporters’ costs and potentially disrupt Indonesian palm oil shipments, though the fee level and implementation details remain uncertain. Any resulting reduction in export availability could support global palm oil prices.
