Dear Customer and Friends. This blogpost is written to inform you regarding the short notice that was just published by SDPPI on January 2nd, 2025. This short notice talks about the expiration of KEPDIRJEN SDPPI No 109 Tahun 2024. This is the regulation that concerns about recognition of foreign test laboratories for the purpose of telecommunications equipment certification in Indonesia.
Check out SDPPI short notice about the expiration of KEPDIRJEN SDPPI No 109 Tahun 2024 in this link.
As we know, at the time this blogpost being published, there’s still no new regulation issued by SDPPI regarding the recognized foreign test laboratories. Meanwhile, the latest foreign test laboratories recognition regulation, which is the Director General Decree Number 109 Tahun 2024, has met its expiration date on December 31, 2024. With this regulation being expired, there’s a big question on whether or not paperwork application based on test reports issued by recognized foreign lab is still acceptable, especially because the legal basis of this practice is already expired.
