Hence, the government has amended Article 12 to grant import permits for
CBU BEVs to companies intending to build BEV production facilities, those
who have invested in domestic BEV manufacturing facilities, and companies
seeking to increase BEV capacity to introduce new products. These import
permits will be limited in quantity, considering the realization of
development, investment, and increased BEV production. The technical
regulations on procurement will be governed by the Industry Minister, Trade
Minister, Investment Minister, and Finance Minister. Article 18 also
stipulates that companies meeting specific conditions for importing CBU
BEVs can receive incentives.
Regarding incentives, the government introduced a new clause, Article 19A,
stating that the government will bear the import duties for CBU BEV
imports. Besides the government-borne import duties, other incentives
include exemptions from luxury goods sales tax (PPnBM) and local taxes for
CBU BEV imports. These concessions also extend to importing capital goods
and production equipment for BEV manufacturing plants, making this project
even more appealing to investors. This regulation is a progressive approach
to attracting investment. However, there is a risk of flooding the market with
imported products and violations of investment commitments if the
government fails to oversee the policy's implementation.
