Indonesia's chief economic minister Airlangga Hartarto said Monday that a 19% tariff on Indonesian goods entering the United States could be implemented earlier than the August 1 deadline set by U.S. President Donald Trump.
Airlangga noted that the timing of the tariff implementation depends on a joint statement expected soon between the two countries.
The United States and Indonesia reached a trade deal last week that resulted in a reduction of the initially proposed U.S. tariff rate from 32% to 19%.
