Abstract

One of the important issues on the Indonesia - Australia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (IACEPA) is a standard. Standard relates to consumer interests, health and safety, environmental protection and management, therefore its relates to trade and product internationalization. The standard issue is important to be considered and analysed as it can be an obstacle in trade relations between Indonesia and Australia. The purpose of the study was to analyze Indonesia-Australia trade patterns and to discuss the standardization issue that might become constraints in IACEPA. The results showed that Australia is an important trading partner for Indonesia and vice versa. Between the two countries, the trade process is complementary. Australia's involvement and participation in the forum for developing international standards is greater than that of Indonesia. Australia also has a more complex bargaining position and arrangements, both in terms of quantity and quality in bilateral trade in the sector of electrotechnology, energy, manufacturing, processing, building and construction. All of these sectors have 64% of the 1743 standards-based technical regulations in Australia that could potentially be a trade barrier for Indonesia. The study recommended Indonesia and Australia need to agree the implementations of standards on particular products and mutual recognition arrangements on certifications.
