IDrecorded a trade surplus of $2.66 billion in November 2025, according to official data released by Statistics Indonesia on January 5, 2026. While the figure marks an increase from the $2.39 billion surplus recorded in October 2025, it fell short of the $3.06 billion median forecast projected in a Reuters poll. This discrepancy was primarily driven by a sharper-than-expected contraction in exports, which fell 6.60% annually to reach $22.52 billion in November. Analysts had previously forecast a much smaller decline of only 0.53%.
