Indonesia may reinstate export taxes on palm oil after a six-month break, due to the recent increase in prices, likely distorting trade as many buyers will opt to source the commodity from Malaysia, according to reports.
Indonesia levies an export tax on CPO for a month if average prices equal $700/mt or higher in the previous month.
