| Validity Period | 3 years |
Based on Government Regulations and KOMINFO Ministerial Regulations, every telecommunications tool and equipment that will be used or traded in Indonesia is required to meet technical standards and have an Indonesia SDPPI Type Approval Certification (POSTEL). Products with certificates that have been issued do not have a validity period as long as the product is still in stock beforehand. However, if within 3 years of the certificate being valid, the product is manufactured, assembled, or entered for trade or use in Indonesia, the certificate holder is required to re-certify. In the re-certification process, the test report (LHU) can be used again, as long as there are no changes to the device specifications and applicable regulations.
