The government has taken significant steps to protect public health by announcing new decisions regarding Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limitations on telecommunication devices, including mobile phones and tablet computers.
Application for Telecommunication Equipment and/or Device Certification towards compliance with technical standards for CISPR-32 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing parameters
Regulation of the Minister of Communication and Information Technology of the Republic of Indonesia Number 3 of 2024 establishes the procedures and requirements to be fulfilled in the certification process of telecommunications equipment and/or telecommunication devices.
Indonesian National Standard (SNI), is a quality standard set by the National Standardization Agency (BSN) and only applies in Indonesia. The standard formulation is carried out by the SNI Formulation Technical Committee.
functional verification has been eliminated to reduce costs and speed up the testing process. Instead, applicants are given 10 days to reset test items or 5 days to repair/replace test items.
On December 18 2023, the Minister of Communication and Information has established new regulations regarding Technical Standards for Antenna Telecommunications Equipment in KEPMEN KOMINFO Number 601 of 2023. Therefore, antennas are now required to have type approval certification.
As of January 1, 2024 SDPPI requires full parameter EMC testing, conducted and radiated. This full parameter EMC testing not only applies to devices powered by AC power, but also applies to devices powered by DC Power that have a charger.
Directorate General of Resources and Postal and Information Technology Devices (Dirjen SDPPI) number 5498/BBPPT.31/SP.05.01/09/2023, the Telecommunication Device Testing Center (BBPPT) can carry out Laser Safety testing.
to measure the amount of absorption of electromagnetic radiation energy by the human body which will effectively implemented on December 1, 2023 SAR testing must be carried out for telecommunications equipment / devices whose use is in direct contact with the human body.
In this discussion, SDPPI further discussed the new regulation, Government Regulation of the Republic of Indonesia Number 43 of 2023
