16 V-LEGAL DOCUMENT AS FLEGT LICENCE SINCE NOVEMBER 15, 2016 FLEGT Invoice number & barcode NOTE: Issued by the licensing authority through the online SILK system (also connected real-time with the online trade system/inatrade and the single window Customs system/insw).

17 ATTACHMENT OF A LICENCE FLEGT Barcode cross-reference of the licence number Attached if more than one product in a shipment. Describe box 8 to box 16 of each product Secure with the barcode in the bottom of the page.
18 Reality against Expectations MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND FORESTRY REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA Expectations Improved forest governance Reduced IL and ITT YES Significantly Realized? YES Starting NOT YET Notes Market acceptance Buyer still request other certifications Improved market access (vis a vis voluntary certification) Waiting for the result of Independent market Monitoring. It also depends on the implementation of due diligence in EU. Increased export Based on early data from LIU Reduced cost (of exporting)?? For some Products Premium price??
19 Challenges MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND FORESTRY REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA A small subset still against the system Cost of certification issue More small producers to be certified Demand of real impacts, e.g. better price, no need of other certifications Further evidence on the implementation of due diligence (that it is not easier than using FLEGT-Licence in entering EU market) Technical issues: carelessness in filling form, taking for granted on the weight tolerance, misinterpretation of HS codes, information inconsistency (across the various documents, e.g. bill of lading, invoice, etc.)
20 Concluding Note MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND FORESTRY REPUBLIC OF INDONESIA The job has not yet done, several issues remain to be addressed: maintain the credibility of the TLAS, domestic procurement policy, supports for smallholders, etc. More effort at the demand sides is determining the future path: promotion, procurement policy, consistently close entrance of unknown/ uncertified illegal timber, better access and price appreciation.
