An official Postel certificate is a mandatory requirement for all telecommunication devices before they can be legally distributed, sold, or used commercially in Indonesia. The certificate is issued by the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs (Kominfo/Komdigi) as proof that the device complies with applicable national technical and regulatory standards.
As the digital ecosystem grows, Postel certification plays a vital role in ensuring legality, safety, and product reliability within the Indonesian market.
What Is a Postel Certificate
A Postel certificate is the result of a technical evaluation and testing process conducted on telecommunication devices. It ensures that devices do not interfere with radio frequencies, are safe for use, and are compatible with national telecommunication networks.
Devices commonly required to obtain a Postel certificate include:
-
Wireless communication devices
-
Networking and data transmission equipment
-
Radio frequency-based devices
-
IoT and smart devices
