Deepens the existing AKFTA relationship. Korea committed to 95.54% tariff elimination vs Indonesia's 92.06%, substantially more comprehensive than AKFTA. Covers goods, services, investment, HR development, and technology transfers. Gives traders multiple pathways alongside AKFTA and RCEP.
Korea eliminates up to 95.54% of tariff lines; Indonesia eliminates 92.06%
Steel, auto parts, petrochemicals, fisheries, dried fruits, seaweed, lubricants, textiles, ceramics, technology
RVC of 40% or CTC; build-up or build-down calculation; Product Specific Rules for select goods
Both maintain exclusion lists for sensitive agricultural products. Korea protects rice and certain fishery products.
