Indonesia Signs Mutual Recognition Agreement with Gold Standard for Carbon Credits

Indonesia has actively sought collaboration with international carbon standards to strengthen its position in the global carbon market and boost climate finance for mitigation and adaptation efforts. A key milestone in this strategy occurred on May 8, 2025, when the Ministry of Environment / Environmental Protection Agency (“MOE”) signed a Mutual Recognition Agreement (“MRA”) with the Gold Standard. This marks a significant step toward aligning Indonesia’s carbon certification system with one of the world’s recognized global carbon standards.
