JAKARTA - PT Freeport Indonesia has opened its voice regarding the news that the company will file a lawsuit against the government regarding the output duty rules contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) No. 71/2023 concerning the Determination of Export Goods Subjected to Imports and Exit Fees.

PTFI's VP of Corporate Communications, Katri Krisnati explained, at the end of 2018, the Government of Indonesia and Freeport-McMoRan Inc as shareholders of PT Freeport Indonesia (PTFI), reached a joint agreement outlined in the Special Mining Business License (IUPK) as a result of long negotiations related to divestment and policies for PTFI's production operations to create optimal benefits for all stakeholders.

"One of the provisions stipulated in the IUPK is regarding the import fee that applies to PTFI during the IUPK period," Katri told VOI, Tuesday, August 8.

Katri continued, in the process of implementing the Exit Customs, it is known that the mechanism for filing objections and appeals to the calculation of the Determination of Exit Customs is a forum in order to realize objective and accurate customs policies.

According to Katri, it is natural for every business actor to take the mechanism for objections and appeals if there is a difference in views between the customs authority and the business actors concerned in implementing customs regulations.

"In connection with the above context, we understand the possibility of filing objections and appeals, but we still hope that the Government will always implement the provisions of the Import Duty for PTFI in accordance with the IUPK which has been mutually approved," concluded Katri.
