Under Article 3.3, Indonesia agrees to engage in consultations with the United States prior to concluding any new digital trade agreement with a third country that could jeopardise essential interests of the United States. Article 3.4 provides that Indonesia shall not impose conditions requiring United States persons to transfer, or grant access to, particular technologies, production processes, source code, or other proprietary knowledge as a condition for conducting business within its territory.
