The Indonesian Ministry of Communication and Digital (KOMDIGI) has officially issued Ministerial Decree (KM) No. 46 of 2025, which establishes new technical standards for Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) devices. This regulation replaces the previous KM 260/2024 and has been in effect since February 18, 2025.
The introduction of this updated regulation is aimed at ensuring the safety, efficiency, and compliance of WPT devices with the latest technological advancements and international standards. As wireless power transmission technology continues to evolve, it is crucial for manufacturers, importers, and distributors of WPT devices to adhere to the new regulatory framework to maintain legal market operations in Indonesia.
Key Updates in KM KOMDIGI No. 46/2025
To provide better guidance and clarity for industry players and stakeholders, here are the main updates introduced in this new regulation:
1. Mandatory Radiated Testing for WPT Devices
One of the most significant changes introduced in KM KOMDIGI No. 46/2025 is the requirement for all Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) devices to undergo radiated testing.
This mandatory testing is implemented to ensure that WPT devices do not cause harmful interference to other electronic and communication systems. It also helps in maintaining efficient power transmission while complying with safety regulations.
Manufacturers and importers must conduct radiated emissions tests at certified laboratories before submitting their devices for official certification. This ensures that each product meets the technical and safety requirements set by the government before being legally distributed in Indonesia.
2. New Frequency Bands for WPT Devices
The updated regulation expands the frequency spectrum allocated for Wireless Power Transmission. The new decree introduces three additional frequency bands specifically designated for WPT devices:
🔹 315-405 kHz – Suitable for low-frequency wireless power applications, including industrial and commercial usage.
🔹 1700-1800 kHz – Designed for mid-range power transmission applications, ensuring stable performance for various wireless charging solutions.
🔹 13.553-13.567 MHz – Allocated for high-frequency wireless charging applications, commonly used in fast-charging systems and high-efficiency power transfer devices.
By providing these additional frequency allocations, the Indonesian government aims to improve the efficiency of wireless power transmission systems while reducing potential interference with other telecommunication services.
Manufacturers and developers of WPT technology must ensure that their devices operate within these specified frequency ranges to comply with the new standards.
3. Test Report Acceptance and Transition Period
To facilitate a smooth transition from the previous regulatory framework (KM 260/2024) to the newly established KM KOMDIGI No. 46/2025, a special provision has been introduced for test reports.
Test reports issued before February 18, 2025, under the previous decree, may still be used for telecommunication equipment certification applications, as long as they:
✅ Are still valid and relevant to the latest regulatory standards.
✅ Do not conflict with the new technical requirements specified in KM KOMDIGI No. 46/2025.
✅ Have been conducted by accredited testing laboratories recognized by the Indonesian government.
After the transition period ends, all applications for certification must strictly comply with the updated testing and technical requirements to obtain approval from SDPPI/DJID.
What is Wireless Power Transmission (WPT)?
Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) is an advanced technology that enables the transfer of electrical power from a source to a receiving device without the need for physical cables. This technology operates by utilizing electric and/or magnetic fields to transmit energy safely and efficiently.
WPT technology is widely used in various consumer electronics, automotive industries, and industrial applications. It allows users to charge devices wirelessly, reducing the need for multiple cables and improving convenience.
There are two main types of Wireless Power Transmission:
🔹 Inductive Coupling (Near-Field WPT) – Used in devices such as wireless chargers for smartphones, smartwatches, and electric toothbrushes.
🔹 Resonant Coupling (Mid-Range WPT) – Applied in technologies like wireless EV charging and industrial power transfer solutions.
The adoption of WPT is growing rapidly due to its efficiency, safety, and ease of use, making it a crucial technology for the future of power transmission.
Examples of Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) Devices
The new regulation applies to a wide range of wireless power transmission devices, including but not limited to:
- Wireless Chargers – Used for smartphones, smartwatches, and other portable gadgets.
- MagSafe Chargers – Designed for Apple devices to provide a more efficient and secure wireless charging experience.
- Wireless Charging Stands – Commonly used in offices and homes for convenient device charging.
- Wireless EV Charging Systems – Applied in electric vehicle (EV) charging stations to enable seamless energy transfer.
- Other Inductive and Resonant Charging Devices – Including medical devices, industrial equipment, and IoT-powered wireless sensors.
If your business manufactures or distributes any of these devices, it is essential to review and comply with the latest standards outlined in KM KOMDIGI No. 46/2025.
Ensure Your WPT Devices Meet the Latest Regulations!
As of February 18, 2025, all Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) devices must fully comply with the updated KM KOMDIGI No. 46/2025 to obtain official SDPPI/DJID certification. Without proper certification, WPT devices cannot be legally distributed in Indonesia.
To avoid potential legal and operational issues, manufacturers and importers should:
✅ Conduct radiated testing at accredited laboratories.
✅ Ensure compliance with the newly allocated frequency bands.
✅ Update documentation and test reports according to the latest regulations.
✅ Submit certification applications to SDPPI/DJID before the deadline.
By meeting these requirements, businesses can continue to operate legally while ensuring the safety and reliability of their WPT products.
