The Indonesian market offers vast opportunities for both local and international businesses. However, before products can be sold or distributed, they must comply with Indonesia’s SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) — the national standard ensuring product safety, quality, and reliability.
While essential, the process of obtaining SNI certification can be highly complex, involving detailed documentation, laboratory testing, and strict coordination with government institutions. This is where authorized agents play a critical role, guiding businesses through every step of the certification journey.
Understanding the Role of Authorized Agents
An authorized SNI agent acts as a professional intermediary between the manufacturer and Indonesia’s certification authorities, such as:
- BSN (Badan Standardisasi Nasional) – National Standardization Agency of Indonesia
- LSPro (Lembaga Sertifikasi Produk) – Product Certification Bodies
- Accredited Testing Laboratories
Authorized agents handle the entire certification process from registration and testing to document submission and follow-up. Their expertise ensures that businesses meet all legal and technical requirements under Indonesian regulations.
Why SNI Procedures Can Be Challenging
SNI certification involves multiple layers of verification, including product sampling, technical evaluation, and conformity assessment. Many applications are delayed or rejected due to:
- Incomplete or inaccurate documents
- Misunderstanding local regulations
- Delays in laboratory testing or approval
- Communication gaps with authorities
Without local guidance, businesses may face lengthy approval times and unexpected costs.
How Authorized Agents Simplify the SNI Process
1. Managing Documentation and Compliance
Authorized agents prepare, review, and submit all required documents according to BSN and LSPro standards — ensuring accuracy and preventing costly mistakes.
2. Coordinating Testing and Inspections
Agents manage product testing with accredited Indonesian laboratories, ensuring that samples, schedules, and technical requirements are handled properly.
3. Maintaining Direct Communication
Authorized agents act as your representative before certification authorities, bridging language and administrative barriers for smoother communication and faster processing.
4. Providing Legal Representation
For foreign companies without a legal presence in Indonesia, an authorized agent serves as the official local representative, taking legal responsibility for certified products.
5. Supporting Post-Certification Compliance
Once certification is granted, agents help maintain compliance by managing renewals, audits, and product surveillance — keeping your products legally approved for distribution.

- Simplified certification procedures
- Reduced approval time and errors

Working with an authorized SNI agent allows your business to focus on production and marketing while professionals manage the technical and legal aspects of certification.
