Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has a strong impact on the world economy including Indonesia because not only has an impact on the health crisis, but also has implications for broad socio-economic aspects globally, especially in export and import trade activities. The relationship between exporters and importers bound by an agreement. In response to Covid-19 in Indonesia, the President of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, has issued Presidential Decree No.12 of 2020 concerning the Designation of Non-Natural Disasters for the Spread of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) as a National Disaster. In addition, the issuance of several regulations of the Minister of Trade has implications for export-import activities. The research method used in this research is juridical-normative legal research. The results show that imports and exports, especially in Indonesia, are possible to be postponed in case of force majeure, but this does not mean that the exporters and importers immediately release the obligations of exporters and importers in relation to the agreement between the two, so it is necessary to analyze in depth the legal basis for the imposition of prohibition rules the importing country concerned first.
