| Energy Efficiency Performance and ESDM Energy Label (Label Hemat Energi) | China's equivalent is GB 30255-2019 (Energy efficiency requirements for LED room luminaires), which defines three energy efficiency grades: Grade 1 (highest) about 90 lm/W and above; Grade 2 about 80 lm/W and above; Grade 3 about 70 lm/W and above. Grade 3 is the minimum for the Chinese market. China Energy Label (CEL) registration with CQC/CECP is mandatory for GB 30255-covered products and is administered by SAMR. The Chinese CEL grade is based on absolute lm/W thresholds and there is no mutual recognition with Indonesia's ESDM label hemat energi scheme.GB 30255-2019 — Energy efficiency requirements for LED room luminaires (SAC/SAMR) China Energy Label (CEL) scheme — administered by SAMR/CQC/CECP |
LED self-ballasted lamps and certain lighting products placed on the Indonesian market fall under the energy efficiency labelling scheme administered by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM / Kementerian ESDM) through the Directorate General of New, Renewable Energy and Energy Conservation (EBTKE). The label hemat energi displays a star rating (typically 1 to 4 bintang) based on luminous efficacy (lm/W) measured against SNI test methods. Products in scope must be tested to the applicable SNI for self-ballasted LED lamps, achieve at least the minimum efficacy tier, and carry the ESDM star label on packaging before sale. The energy labelling obligation is separate from, and in addition to, the mandatory SNI safety/quality certification (SPPT-SNI). The Indonesian grid is 230 V, 50 Hz.Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) energy labelling regulation for self-ballasted LED lamps — label hemat energi / star rating (administered via EBTKE) Applicable SNI for self-ballasted LED lamps — efficacy test method |
Both markets operate mandatory energy labelling, but the schemes are independent with no mutual recognition. Indonesia's ESDM label hemat energi uses a star rating (bintang) determined by efficacy measured under Indonesian-recognised SNI test methods, whereas China's CEL uses Grade 1 to 3 based on GB 30255 thresholds. A Chinese CEL grade does not map to or substitute for an Indonesian star rating. Manufacturers must (1) have the product tested for efficacy against the applicable SNI, (2) register with ESDM to obtain the star rating, and (3) print the ESDM label on Indonesian packaging. Test reports must be accepted by the Indonesian scheme — Chinese GB/CEL reports are generally not directly accepted. Confirm exact minimum efficacy tiers and product scope against the current ESDM regulation for self-ballasted LED lamps.[INFORMATIONAL] In-scope self-ballasted LED lamps require the ESDM energy label (label hemat energi star rating) and ESDM registration before sale in Indonesia, in addition to mandatory SNI certification. The Indonesian star rating and China's CEL grade are independent schemes with no mutual recognition, and a Chinese CEL grade does not substitute for the Indonesian rating. Have efficacy tested against the applicable SNI and confirm the current minimum tiers and scope with ESDM before market entry. | Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) — Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| Product Performance and Lifetime Claims under SNI Test Methods | In China, LED lamp performance is governed by GB/T 24906 / GB/T 24908 series and related GB/T performance standards (covering luminous flux, efficacy, CRI, CCT, and lifetime), alongside the mandatory GB 30255 efficiency grades. CCC certification covers safety and EMC for in-scope luminaires but performance/lifetime claims are largely substantiated through GB/T testing. Chinese GB/T performance test reports are issued by CNAS-accredited laboratories but are not directly accepted by the Indonesian LSPro scheme.GB/T 24906 / GB/T 24908 series — LED lamp performance requirements (SAC/SAMR) GB 30255-2019 — Energy efficiency requirements for LED room luminaires (SAC/SAMR) |
Beyond the headline efficacy used for the ESDM star label, LED lamps and luminaires certified under the mandatory SNI scheme must demonstrate declared performance characteristics through type testing at an LSPro-recognised laboratory using the applicable SNI (which adopt IEC performance standards such as IEC 62612 for self-ballasted LED lamps and IEC performance methods for luminaires). Characteristics verified include luminous flux, luminous efficacy, colour rendering index (CRI/Ra), correlated colour temperature (CCT), and rated life / lumen maintenance. Declared values on packaging and marketing must be substantiated by the test report held by the LSPro, and the operating parameters must be rated for the Indonesian 230 V, 50 Hz supply.Applicable SNI adopting IEC 62612 — Self-ballasted LED lamps performance requirements Applicable SNI adopting IEC performance methods for LED luminaires (CRI, CCT, flux, lumen maintenance) |
Although both Indonesia and China derive their LED performance methods from IEC standards (IEC 62612 and related), the conformity routes differ. Indonesia ties performance verification into the mandatory SNI type-testing process held by the LSPro, and declared values must trace to that report. Chinese GB/T reports are not directly accepted, so re-testing at an Indonesian-recognised laboratory is typically required as part of SNI certification. Manufacturers must ensure declared flux, efficacy, CRI, CCT, and rated life on Indonesian packaging match the SNI test report, and that the lamp is rated for 230 V, 50 Hz operation (China nominal voltage is 220/380 V). Verify the exact SNI version and applicable performance parameters with the LSPro before certification.[INFORMATIONAL] Performance characteristics (flux, efficacy, CRI, CCT, rated life) of LED lamps for Indonesia are verified through the mandatory SNI type-testing process held by the LSPro, and packaging claims must trace to that report. Chinese GB/T performance reports are generally not directly accepted, so re-testing at an Indonesian-recognised laboratory is typically required, and products must be rated for 230 V, 50 Hz. Confirm the applicable SNI version and parameters with the LSPro before certification. | Badan Standardisasi Nasional (BSN) — National Standardisation Agency of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| EMC / Radio Disturbance for Lighting Equipment (SNI adopting CISPR 15) | China's equivalent is GB 17743-2017 (Limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment), technically aligned with CISPR 15. For luminaires sold in China, GB 17743 compliance is required as part of CCC certification, which covers both safety and EMC for relevant product categories. Testing is conducted at CNAS/CMA-accredited laboratories in China. Chinese CCC EMC test reports are not directly accepted by the Indonesian SNI / LSPro scheme.GB 17743-2017 — Limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment (SAC/SAMR, aligned with CISPR 15) | Electromagnetic compatibility for lighting equipment in Indonesia is addressed through the applicable SNI that adopts CISPR 15 (limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment), covering conducted emissions on mains terminals (150 kHz to 30 MHz) and radiated disturbance. Where EMC requirements fall within the scope of the mandatory SNI certification for a lighting product, conformity is demonstrated through type testing at an LSPro-recognised laboratory as part of the SPPT-SNI process. The product must be tested for operation on the Indonesian 230 V, 50 Hz supply. EMC for purely radio/telecom functions of smart lighting is handled additionally under SDPPI (see ledidn-emc-02).Applicable SNI adopting CISPR 15 — radio disturbance characteristics of electrical lighting and similar equipment SPPT-SNI certification process — type testing at an LSPro-recognised laboratory |
Both the Indonesian SNI and China's GB 17743 derive from CISPR 15, so the underlying emission limits are largely harmonized. The key gaps are procedural: (1) Indonesia requires conformity to be demonstrated within the mandatory SNI / SPPT-SNI process held by an accredited LSPro, not via self-declaration; (2) Chinese GB 17743 / CCC test reports are generally not directly accepted, so EMC re-testing at an Indonesian-recognised laboratory is typically required; (3) the product must be tested at 230 V, 50 Hz rather than China's 220 V; (4) where the luminaire integrates wireless functionality, SDPPI radio approval applies in addition (see ledidn-emc-02). Confirm the exact SNI reference and whether EMC is within the mandatory scope for the specific lighting product with the LSPro.[INFORMATIONAL] EMC / radio-disturbance conformity for lighting in Indonesia is demonstrated through the applicable CISPR 15-based SNI within the mandatory SPPT-SNI process at an LSPro-recognised laboratory. Emission limits are broadly harmonized with China's GB 17743 (both CISPR 15-derived), but Chinese CCC/GB reports are generally not directly accepted and re-testing at 230 V, 50 Hz is typically required. Smart luminaires with wireless functions additionally require SDPPI approval. Confirm scope and the exact SNI reference with the LSPro. | Badan Standardisasi Nasional (BSN) — National Standardisation Agency of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| SDPPI Radio/Telecom Type Approval for Smart (Wireless) Lighting | In China, wireless-enabled luminaires (e.g., smart LED with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth) require SRRC (State Radio Regulation Commission) type approval for the radio module, in addition to CCC where applicable and CTA / network access licensing for certain telecom equipment. SRRC type approval verifies RF parameters (frequency, transmit power, occupied bandwidth, spurious emissions) against Chinese radio regulations. SRRC approval is China-specific and is not recognised by Indonesia's SDPPI; separate SDPPI certification through a local applicant is required.SRRC type approval — required for wireless-enabled equipment in China (State Radio Regulation Commission) CTA / network access licence — required for certain telecom equipment in China where applicable |
Smart LED lighting that incorporates radio functionality (Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Zigbee, or other RF) requires type approval (sertifikat / certificate) from SDPPI (Direktorat Jenderal Sumber Daya dan Perangkat Pos dan Informatika), the directorate general for resources and equipment of post and informatics under the Ministry of Communication and Digital. The device must be tested against the applicable Indonesian telecommunication equipment standards (which adopt relevant ETSI/IEC RF and SAR-type methods) at an SDPPI-recognised test laboratory, and certification must be obtained through a local applicant before the product can be imported, distributed, sold, or operated in Indonesia. The use of radio frequencies must comply with the Indonesian frequency allocation table. This is in addition to mandatory SNI safety certification and any ESDM energy labelling.SDPPI (Ditjen SDPPI) telecommunication equipment type approval — Ministry of Communication and Digital, Republic of Indonesia Indonesian telecommunication equipment technical standards for RF devices (adopting relevant ETSI/IEC RF methods) |
Both markets require national radio type approval for wireless smart lighting, but the schemes are independent with no mutual recognition. A Chinese SRRC approval does not satisfy Indonesia's SDPPI requirement. Key Indonesia-specific points: (1) SDPPI certification must be applied for through a locally registered applicant/importer, not directly by a foreign manufacturer; (2) testing must be at an SDPPI-recognised laboratory against Indonesian standards and the local frequency allocation; (3) SDPPI approval is a separate obligation from mandatory SNI safety certification — a smart luminaire needs both SNI and SDPPI; (4) the SDPPI certificate/label requirements must be met before import and sale. Confirm the exact applicant eligibility, test scope, and current SDPPI procedure for the specific RF technology used.[INFORMATIONAL] Smart LED lighting with Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Zigbee requires SDPPI radio/telecom type approval in Indonesia, applied for through a local applicant and tested at an SDPPI-recognised laboratory — separate from and additional to mandatory SNI certification. A Chinese SRRC approval is not recognised. Confirm applicant eligibility, the RF test scope, and the current SDPPI procedure for the specific wireless technology before import. | Direktorat Jenderal SDPPI — Ministry of Communication and Digital, Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| Photobiological Safety — Blue Light Hazard (IEC 62471 via applicable SNI) | China's equivalent is GB/T 20145-2006 (Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems), which adopts IEC 62471 and uses the same Risk Group classification (Exempt, RG1, RG2, RG3). For certain products such as LED lighting intended for children or specific applications, blue light hazard requirements may be mandatory under product-specific GB standards, but in general GB/T 20145 is a recommended (T) standard rather than a uniformly binding market-access gate. Chinese photobiological test reports are not directly accepted by the Indonesian LSPro scheme.GB/T 20145-2006 — Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems (SAC/SAMR, adopts IEC 62471) | Photobiological safety of LED lamps and luminaires is assessed against IEC 62471 (Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems), which classifies products into Risk Groups (Exempt, RG1, RG2, RG3) based primarily on the blue light hazard and other optical radiation hazards. Where the applicable SNI for a lighting product adopts the IEC 62471 / IEC 62778 method (assessment of blue light hazard of light sources and luminaires), the LSPro type-testing for SNI certification includes the relevant photobiological evaluation, and the risk group classification informs required markings or warnings for higher risk groups. The assessment must reflect the product as operated on the Indonesian 230 V, 50 Hz supply. Confirm whether photobiological safety is within the mandatory SNI scope for the specific product with the LSPro.Applicable SNI adopting IEC 62471 — photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems (risk group classification) IEC 62778 method (as adopted) — assessment of blue light hazard of light sources and luminaires |
Both Indonesia and China assess blue light hazard via IEC 62471 / GB/T 20145 with identical Risk Group classification, so the technical basis is aligned. The gaps are procedural and scope-related: (1) where the applicable Indonesian SNI brings photobiological safety into the mandatory SNI scope, it is verified through LSPro type testing rather than via a voluntary report; (2) Chinese GB/T 20145 reports are generally not directly accepted, so re-evaluation at an Indonesian-recognised laboratory may be required; (3) products classified above the exempt/RG1 group may require specific warning markings; (4) testing must reflect 230 V, 50 Hz operation. Confirm with the LSPro whether photobiological safety is mandatory for the specific lamp/luminaire and what markings the assigned risk group triggers.[INFORMATIONAL] Blue light hazard is assessed via IEC 62471 in both Indonesia and China, with identical Risk Group classification. Where the applicable Indonesian SNI brings photobiological safety within the mandatory SNI scope, it is verified through LSPro type testing, and Chinese GB/T 20145 reports are generally not directly accepted. Products above the exempt/RG1 group may require warning markings. Confirm mandatory scope and required markings with the LSPro, and ensure testing reflects 230 V, 50 Hz operation. | Badan Standardisasi Nasional (BSN) — National Standardisation Agency of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| Risk Group Marking, Warnings, and Product/Packaging Labelling | In China, photobiological risk-group warnings follow GB/T 20145 / GB 7000 series marking requirements, and luminaire markings follow GB 7000.1 (the GB adoption of IEC 60598-1). Products in the CCC scope carry the CCC mark with the certificate number. Chinese-market labelling and instructions are in Chinese. There is no Bahasa Indonesia labelling requirement and no SNI mark in the Chinese scheme; the CCC mark is China-specific and not interchangeable with the SNI mark.GB 7000.1 — Luminaires Part 1: General requirements and tests (SAC/SAMR, adopts IEC 60598-1) GB/T 20145-2006 / GB 7000 series — photobiological warning and luminaire marking (China) |
Where an LED product is classified above the exempt risk group under the IEC 62471-based assessment, the applicable SNI and luminaire safety standard (SNI IEC 60598 series) require corresponding markings and instructions — for example a do-not-stare warning for RG2 sources, or restrictions on intended use. In addition, certified products must carry the SNI mark (tanda SNI) together with the certification number on the product and/or packaging, and labelling/instructions for the Indonesian market are expected to be available in Bahasa Indonesia. ESDM energy labelling (label hemat energi) on packaging is required separately for in-scope self-ballasted lamps. The combination of SNI mark, any risk-group warnings, and the ESDM label must appear correctly before the product is sold.SNI IEC 60598 series — luminaire marking and instruction requirements SNI mark (tanda SNI) marking rules — Kemenperin / BSN; Bahasa Indonesia labelling expectation |
The risk-group warning logic (e.g., RG2 do-not-stare) is technically similar in both markets, but the market-access marking and language differ entirely. For Indonesia, certified products must bear the SNI mark (tanda SNI) and certification number — the CN CCC mark is not interchangeable and carries no validity in Indonesia. Labelling and user instructions are expected in Bahasa Indonesia, whereas CN products use Chinese. In-scope self-ballasted lamps must additionally carry the ESDM label hemat energi on packaging. Chinese manufacturers must redesign packaging artwork for the Indonesian market to include the SNI mark, certification number, any required risk-group warnings, and the ESDM label, all in the correct language and format. Confirm exact marking placement and language requirements with the LSPro.[INFORMATIONAL] Indonesian certified LED products must bear the SNI mark (tanda SNI) and certification number, carry any risk-group warnings required by the applicable SNI, and (for in-scope lamps) the ESDM label — with Bahasa Indonesia labelling expected. The Chinese CCC mark and Chinese-language labelling do not satisfy these requirements. Packaging artwork must be redesigned for Indonesia; confirm exact marking, language, and placement rules with the LSPro before printing. | Badan Standardisasi Nasional (BSN) — SNI mark (tanda SNI) information, Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| Restricted / Hazardous Substances — No Horizontal RoHS in Indonesia | China's equivalent is GB/T 26572-2011 (Requirements for concentration limits for certain restricted substances in electrical and electronic products), covering the original 6 RoHS substances (Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr(VI), PBB, PBDE) with the same thresholds as EU RoHS. China RoHS 2 (Management Measures for the Restriction of the Use of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Products; SJ/T 11364-2014) requires a hazardous-substance disclosure label (orange/green) on EEE sold in China. China therefore has a defined restricted-substance scheme — unlike Indonesia, which has no single horizontal equivalent.GB/T 26572-2011 — Requirements for concentration limits for certain restricted substances in EEE (SAC/SAMR — original 6 substances) SJ/T 11364-2014 — Marking for the restricted use of hazardous substances in EEE (China RoHS 2 disclosure label) |
Indonesia does not have a single horizontal RoHS-style law that restricts a fixed list of hazardous substances (Pb, Hg, Cd, Cr(VI), PBB, PBDE, phthalates) in electrical and electronic equipment as a market-access gate in the way the EU RoHS Directive does. Instead, hazardous-substance control for LED products is addressed indirectly through: (1) the safety requirements embedded in the mandatory SNI for the product (e.g., limits on certain materials within SNI IEC 60598 / lamp standards); (2) general hazardous and toxic materials (Bahan Berbahaya dan Beracun, B3) management rules under environmental law administered by the Ministry of Environment; and (3) product-specific or sector regulations that may apply. There is no Indonesia-wide RoHS declaration of conformity equivalent. Manufacturers should therefore not assume a RoHS-style restriction applies uniformly, and should verify any substance limits tied to the specific applicable SNI and to B3 rules.No horizontal RoHS-style statute in Indonesia (as of 2026) — substance control via applicable SNI safety requirements Government Regulation on management of hazardous and toxic materials (B3) — environmental law (Indonesia) |
Honest mapping note: the EU RoHS dimension does not translate to a single Indonesian RoHS law. Indonesia has no horizontal RoHS-style restricted-substance statute, so a Chinese manufacturer cannot satisfy an Indonesian RoHS obligation because none exists as such. The practical implications are: (1) any substance limits relevant to LED products come from the applicable SNI safety standard and from B3 hazardous-material rules, not from a RoHS list; (2) China's GB/T 26572 / China RoHS 2 disclosure label has no Indonesian counterpart and is not required for the Indonesian market; (3) manufacturers should still control hazardous substances for environmental and B3 / e-waste reasons (see ledidn-rohs-02 and ledidn-rohs-03) and should verify whether the specific applicable SNI or any sector regulation imposes material limits. Do not assume EU RoHS testing is required or sufficient for Indonesia; verify the actual Indonesian requirements with the LSPro and environmental authority.[INFORMATIONAL] Indonesia has no horizontal RoHS-style restricted-substance law as a market-access gate, so there is no Indonesian RoHS DoC to obtain. Substance control for LED products instead derives from the applicable SNI safety requirements and from B3 hazardous-material and e-waste rules. China's GB/T 26572 / RoHS 2 disclosure label has no Indonesian counterpart. Do not assume EU-style RoHS testing is required or sufficient for Indonesia; verify actual material limits with the LSPro and the environmental authority. | Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan (KLHK) — Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| B3 Hazardous and Toxic Materials Management (Bahan Berbahaya dan Beracun) | China controls hazardous substances through GB/T 26572 / China RoHS 2 (restricted-substance limits and disclosure labelling) and, separately, through chemical management instruments such as MEE Order No. 12 (Measures for the Environmental Management of New Chemical Substances) and GB 30981-class chemical classification/labelling rules. China is also a party to the Minamata Convention and restricts mercury in lighting products. However, China's RoHS-style scheme is product-substance focused (concentration limits + disclosure), whereas Indonesia's B3 framework is a broader environmental import/handling regime rather than a fixed concentration-limit RoHS list.GB/T 26572-2011 / China RoHS 2 (SJ/T 11364-2014) — restricted-substance limits and disclosure label (China) MEE chemical management instruments — new chemical substance registration and classification/labelling (China) |
Indonesia regulates hazardous and toxic materials through the B3 (Bahan Berbahaya dan Beracun) framework under environmental law, administered by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK). The B3 rules govern the import, use, storage, transport, and disposal of listed hazardous substances and may require import notification/registration (and in some cases SNI-pelumas-style or import-licensing controls) for products or components containing certain B3 substances such as mercury. For LED lighting this is most relevant where a product contains mercury (e.g., legacy fluorescent components) or other listed B3 materials. The Minamata Convention on Mercury, to which Indonesia is a party, also drives restrictions on mercury-added products. Mainstream LED lamps are typically mercury-free, but manufacturers must confirm that no component triggers B3 import controls and that any listed substances are handled per the B3 regime.Government Regulation on the management of hazardous and toxic materials (B3) — Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) Minamata Convention on Mercury — mercury-added product restrictions (Indonesia is a party) |
The structural gap is that China uses a concentration-limit RoHS-style scheme while Indonesia uses the broader B3 environmental regime. A Chinese GB/T 26572 compliance file does not map onto Indonesia's B3 requirements. Practical actions for Chinese LED exporters: (1) confirm whether any component (especially mercury in legacy/hybrid products, or other listed B3 substances) triggers B3 import notification/registration or licensing through the importer; (2) ensure mercury-added product restrictions under the Minamata Convention are respected; (3) coordinate B3 compliance with the in-country importer, since import controls and any registration are handled domestically; (4) recognise that B3 is environmental/handling-focused, so factory substance data and safety data sheets may be requested rather than a RoHS concentration declaration. Verify the current B3 list and import procedure with the importer and KLHK.[INFORMATIONAL] Indonesia controls hazardous substances through the broader B3 (Bahan Berbahaya dan Beracun) environmental regime rather than a fixed-concentration RoHS list. A Chinese GB/T 26572 file does not satisfy B3. Confirm whether any component (notably mercury, per the Minamata Convention) triggers B3 import notification/registration through the importer, and provide factory substance data / SDS as requested. Verify the current B3 list and import procedure with the importer and KLHK. | Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan (KLHK) — Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| Electronic Waste (E-Waste) and End-of-Life Obligations | China operates the WEEE-style framework through the Regulation on the Administration of the Recovery and Disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Products and the catalogue-based EPR fund (waste electrical and electronic product disposal fund). Producers of catalogue-listed products pay into the fund and qualified dismantlers receive subsidies. Lighting products' inclusion depends on the current catalogue. China also uses an Environmentally Friendly Use Period (EFUP) marking under China RoHS 2. These Chinese take-back/EFUP mechanisms are domestic and do not transfer to Indonesia.Regulation on the Administration of the Recovery and Disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Products (China WEEE / EPR fund) China RoHS 2 Environmentally Friendly Use Period (EFUP) marking (SJ/T 11364-2014) |
End-of-life management of LED lighting in Indonesia is governed primarily through waste-management and B3-waste (limbah B3) rules under environmental law administered by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK). Electronic waste that contains hazardous components is treated as B3 waste and is subject to specific collection, transport, storage, and disposal controls. While Indonesia does not yet operate an EU-style producer-responsibility (WEEE) take-back scheme uniformly across all EEE, there are obligations around the proper handling and disposal of hazardous electronic waste, and producer/importer responsibility provisions are developing. There is no formal RoHS-coupled WEEE marking requirement equivalent to the EU crossed-out wheelie-bin symbol mandated nationally for all LED products, but importers should confirm current waste-handling and any extended-producer-responsibility obligations.Waste management law and B3 waste (limbah B3) regulations — Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK) Developing producer/importer responsibility provisions for hazardous electronic waste (Indonesia) |
Neither market's end-of-life scheme is recognised by the other. China's catalogue-based EPR fund and EFUP marking do not satisfy Indonesian obligations, and Indonesia does not (yet) impose an EU-style nationwide WEEE take-back/marking duty on all LED products. The practical gaps for Chinese exporters into Indonesia are: (1) hazardous electronic waste is handled as B3 waste (limbah B3), so any importer-side disposal and the handling of returns/defects must follow KLHK B3-waste rules; (2) the Chinese EFUP mark is not required or recognised in Indonesia; (3) extended-producer-responsibility obligations are developing and may impose future duties on importers/producers — these should be tracked. Confirm with the importer and KLHK whether any take-back, registration, or waste-handling duty currently attaches to the LED product being placed on the Indonesian market.[INFORMATIONAL] Indonesia manages LED end-of-life mainly through B3 waste (limbah B3) rules rather than a uniform EU-style WEEE take-back/marking scheme, and producer-responsibility provisions are still developing. China's catalogue-based EPR fund and EFUP marking do not transfer to Indonesia. Coordinate disposal of returns/defects as B3 waste with the importer, do not rely on the Chinese EFUP mark, and track emerging extended-producer-responsibility duties. Confirm current obligations with the importer and KLHK. | Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup dan Kehutanan (KLHK) — Ministry of Environment and Forestry, Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
| Electrical Safety — Luminaire / LED Lamp (mandatory SNI IEC 60598 / self-ballasted LED SNI) | China's equivalent is the GB 7000 series (GB 7000.1 — Luminaires Part 1: general requirements and tests, the GB adoption of IEC 60598-1, plus relevant Part 2 standards) and GB 24906 / GB standards adopting IEC 62560 for self-ballasted LED lamp safety. For residential luminaires, CCC (China Compulsory Certification) is mandatory and is administered by CNCA through authorized bodies such as CQC, with testing at CNAS/CMA-accredited laboratories.

Electrical safety of LED luminaires and lamps placed on the Indonesian market is governed by the applicable mandatory SNI, which adopts the IEC luminaire and lamp safety standards: the SNI IEC 60598 series (Luminaires — general requirements and tests, plus the relevant Part 2 for the specific luminaire type) and the SNI for self-ballasted LED lamps adopting IEC 62560 (Self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting services — safety specifications). Compliance covers protection against electric shock, insulation, creepage and clearance, temperature/thermal endurance, mechanical strength, and resistance to fire and ignition. The product must be rated and tested for the Indonesian 230 V, 50 Hz supply. Conformity is demonstrated through type testing at an LSPro-recognised laboratory as part of the mandatory SNI certification (SPPT-SNI), and the certified product must bear the SNI mark (tanda SNI).SNI IEC 60598-1 (and relevant Part 2) — Luminaires: general requirements and tests SNI adopting IEC 62560 — Self-ballasted LED lamps for general lighting services: safety specifications |
Both the Indonesian SNI and China's GB 7000 series adopt IEC 60598 / IEC 62560, so the technical safety requirements are largely harmonized. The gaps are conformity-route and market-access related: (1) Indonesia requires conformity through mandatory SNI certification (SPPT-SNI) held by an accredited LSPro, with both type testing and a factory quality-management-system audit — China's CCC certificate is not recognised and cannot be transferred; (2) Chinese GB test reports are generally not directly accepted, so re-testing at an Indonesian-recognised laboratory is typically required; (3) products must be rated and tested at 230 V, 50 Hz rather than China's 220/380 V nominal voltage; (4) the certified product must bear the SNI mark (tanda SNI), not the CCC mark.

| Mandatory SNI Certification Process — LSPro, SPPT-SNI, Factory Audit, and Importer | China's analogous market-access process is CCC (China Compulsory Certification), administered by CNCA and operated through designated bodies such as CQC. CCC also combines type testing with an initial factory inspection and follow-up surveillance, and grants the right to apply the CCC mark. For products outside the CCC scope, CQC voluntary certification is available. The structure (test + factory audit + mark + surveillance) is conceptually similar to SPPT-SNI, but the CCC certificate, CCC mark, and Chinese test reports are recognised only in China and have no validity for the Indonesian SNI scheme.CCC (China Compulsory Certification) — CNCA/CQC; type test + factory inspection + surveillance + CCC mark CQC voluntary certification — for products outside the mandatory CCC scope |
Mandatory SNI certification for LED lamps/luminaires in Indonesia is obtained through an accredited LSPro (Lembaga Sertifikasi Produk / product certification body) and culminates in the SPPT-SNI (Surat Persetujuan Penggunaan Tanda SNI — certificate of approval to use the SNI mark). The process typically requires: (1) an application via an in-country legal entity; (2) type testing of product samples against the applicable SNI at a recognised laboratory; (3) an audit (assessment) of the manufacturer's factory and quality management system (often ISO 9001-aligned), which for a foreign factory means the LSPro audits the China plant; (4) issuance of the SPPT-SNI and the right to apply the SNI mark with the certificate number; (5) ongoing surveillance audits to maintain the certificate. The technical regulation making the SNI mandatory is issued by the Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) via a Permenperin. Goods are imported by a local importer holding an NIB and (where required) API-U, entering via ports such as Tanjung Priok (Jakarta) or Tanjung Perak (Surabaya).SPPT-SNI process via accredited LSPro — type testing plus factory QMS audit; SNI mark licence Ministry of Industry (Kemenperin) technical regulation (Permenperin) making the SNI mandatory; importer NIB / API-U |
Although CCC and SPPT-SNI share a similar structure (test + factory audit + mark + surveillance), they are independent with no mutual recognition. Key Indonesia-specific points with no CCC equivalent: (1) the application must go through an in-country legal entity, and the goods need a local importer holding an NIB and (where required) API-U — a foreign manufacturer cannot self-import; (2) the LSPro factory audit of the Chinese plant is a distinct audit (scheduling, travel, and findings are separate from CCC); (3) the output is the SPPT-SNI and the SNI mark, which must be applied with the certificate number; (4) the mandatory status flows from a Kemenperin Permenperin, and import is policed at customs (with entry via Tanjung Priok / Tanjung Perak). A Chinese manufacturer must budget time for LSPro registration, sample testing, a factory audit of the China plant, and importer onboarding, none of which a CCC certificate shortcuts. Confirm the current LSPro, the applicable Permenperin, and importer licensing with a local partner.[INFORMATIONAL] Market access for LED lamps/luminaires in Indonesia runs through mandatory SNI certification: an accredited LSPro conducts type testing plus a factory QMS audit of the China plant and issues the SPPT-SNI granting the SNI mark, with ongoing surveillance, under a Kemenperin Permenperin. A local importer with an NIB / API-U is required and goods clear via ports such as Tanjung Priok or Tanjung Perak. The Chinese CCC certificate and mark are not recognised. Budget time for LSPro registration, testing, the factory audit, and importer onboarding; confirm the current LSPro, Permenperin, and import licensing with a local partner. | Kementerian Perindustrian (Kemenperin) — Ministry of Industry, Republic of Indonesia2026-06-15 · reference |
