Indonesia Horticulture Import Prohibition Policy in 2013 get opposition from a number of Indonesia trading partners countries. This is reflected in the report to the WTO DSB conducted by the United States to Indonesia. Given the policy of horticulture import ban in the WTO safeguard measures framework, each State is allowed to carry out protection to the domestic industry of invasion of imported products as long as they comply with the requirements that have been determined. There are three main things that must be met in line with safeguards that is increases in imports, the existence of serious injury or threat of serious injury and there is a causal link between the import surge with a serious injury occurring. The absence of one of these terms means not in accordance with the principles of the safeguard measures. Indonesia as a country that limits imports of horticultural products issued this policy refers to the increase in imports of horticultural products that occur each year. With the government's claim that at the time of implementation of these policies were harvest time so the goverment afraid of the disruption to the domestic industry if the import is not limited that refers to the aspect of serious injury. But the Indonesian government can not show that the increase in imports is in line with WTO required import surges and threat of serious injury also not visible with the domestic horticulture production continue increasing. On the other hand, this policy disrupt Indonesian trade relations with partner countries with the report to the WTO dispute. If convicted, Indonesia threatened by retaliation action carried out by the State that aggrieved of this policy.
