European Union approves low tariffs for Indonesian shrimp

The European Union (EU) has approved an Indonesian proposal to keep tariffs of its shrimp exports at less than 5 percent.

Indonesia asked both the EU and the United States to extend the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) facility on Indonesian shrimp until 2010. Under the GSP facility, the EU imposes an import duty of 4.2 percent on frozen raw shrimp and 7 percent on frozen cooked shrimp.

Indonesia homes to receive a similarly favorable response from the U.S.
