Until recently, it used be just this:

;; remove "inputenc" from default packages as it clashes with xelatex
(setf org-latex-default-packages-alist
      (remove '("AUTO" "inputenc" t) org-latex-default-packages-alist))

;; replace fontenc, with fontspec
(let ((pos (position '("T1" "fontenc" t) ; T1 -> utf8 for pdflatex
                     org-latex-default-packages-alist
                     :test 'equal)))
  (if pos
      (setf (nth pos org-latex-default-packages-alist)
            '("" "fontspec" t))))

(setq org-latex-pdf-process ; -shell-escape needed for minted
      '("xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
        "xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o %f"
        "xelatex -shell-escape -interaction nonstopmode -output-directory %o 
%f")
      ;; org-latex-pdf-process '("sh -v -x texi2dvi -p -b -c -V %f") ; 
historical
      ;; TODO: maybe use arara, that probably requires export changes
      )

After this patch from Rasmus:

  <http://mid.gmane.org/address@hidden>

it's as simple as adding a

  #+latex_program: xelatex

Hope this helps,
