Indonesia is preparing to finalize a major reciprocal trade agreement with the United States, with President Prabowo Subianto expected to sign the deal during his visit to Washington for the Board of Peace summit on February 19, 2026. Known as the Agreement on Reciprocal Trade (ART), the pact has been shaped through months of negotiations and includes commitments on market access and reduction of tariff barriers to strengthen bilateral economic ties.
Under the agreement, Indonesia and the U.S. have aligned on key provisions that aim to make trade more balanced and mutually advantageous, including tariff exemptions for select Indonesian exports while maintaining strategic cooperation on digital trade and broader commercial engagement. The signing is seen as a positive milestone that could boost export opportunities, attract investment, and deepen the long-term economic partnership between both nations.
