Conformity Assessment — SNI Certification via Accredited LSPro (SPPT-SNI) and the SNI Mark For industrial respiratory protection under GB 2626-2019 (KN95), China applies a compulsory certification (CCC) scheme administered by SAMR/CNCA and third-party certification bodies (e.g., China Quality Certification Centre, CQC). The conformity assessment involves type testing by a CNAS-accredited laboratory followed by factory inspection. For medical-protective masks (GB 19083), NMPA registration is required as a medical device (Class II in most cases). Neither the Chinese CCC scheme nor NMPA medical-device registration is recognised as equivalent to an Indonesian SPPT-SNI issued by a KAN-accredited LSPro — the certificate must be obtained from a body recognised under the Indonesian system.GB 2626-2019 — Respiratory protective equipment — Non-powered air-purifying particle respirator (CCC mandatory certification under SAMR/CNCA)
GB 19083-2010 — Technical requirements for medical protective mask (NMPA Class II medical device registration)
In Indonesia, conformity for industrial particulate respirators is demonstrated through the SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) certification scheme operated under the BSN (Badan Standardisasi Nasional, the national standards body) and Law No. 20 of 2014 on Standardisation and Conformity Assessment. Certification is performed by an accredited LSPro (Lembaga Sertifikasi Produk, product certification body) accredited by KAN (Komite Akreditasi Nasional). The LSPro issues an SPPT-SNI (Sertifikat Produk Penggunaan Tanda SNI) — the certificate granting the right to apply the SNI mark — typically following a scheme combining type testing at a KAN-accredited laboratory with an audit of the manufacturer's quality management system (often referencing ISO 9001 / SNI ISO 9001). Where a Minister of Industry (Kemenperin) regulation makes a given SNI mandatory (SNI wajib) for a product, certification and the SNI mark become a legal precondition for sale; otherwise the SNI is voluntary (sukarela). Occupational-use respirators are additionally framed by the Kemnaker (Ministry of Manpower) K3 (Keselamatan dan Kesehatan Kerja) occupational safety and health framework. Importation requires a registered in-country importer holding API-U and an NIB business identification number.Law No. 20 of 2014 on Standardisation and Conformity Assessment (Undang-Undang No. 20 Tahun 2014 tentang Standardisasi dan Penilaian Kesesuaian)

The conformity assessment must be re-run inside the Indonesian system. Specific gaps: (1) Certification must be performed by a KAN-accredited LSPro with the respirator/mask product in its accreditation scope; (2) Chinese CCC certificates and NMPA registrations do not substitute for an SPPT-SNI; (3) Type testing must be carried out at (or accepted by) a KAN-accredited laboratory against the applicable SNI; (4) The manufacturer's quality management system is typically audited (ISO 9001 / SNI ISO 9001 alignment) as part of the SPPT-SNI scheme; (5) Where the relevant SNI has been made mandatory by a Kemenperin regulation, the SNI mark and SPPT-SNI are a legal precondition for placing the product on the market; (6) An in-country importer (API-U / NIB) must be appointed, since a foreign manufacturer cannot import directly; (7) For workplace/occupational use, alignment with the Kemnaker K3 framework should be confirmed.[INFORMATIONAL] Industrial particulate respirators for the Indonesian market require conformity through the SNI system — an SPPT-SNI issued by a KAN-accredited LSPro plus the SNI mark, mandatory where a Kemenperin regulation makes the SNI wajib. Chinese CCC certificates and NMPA registrations are not recognised as equivalent. A registered in-country importer (API-U / NIB) is required for importation. Exporters should confirm with a KAN-accredited LSPro whether the specific respirator falls under a mandatory or voluntary SNI before shipment.

Product Labelling Requirements — Particulate Respirators in Indonesia (SNI Mark + Bahasa Indonesia) GB 2626-2019 Clause 7 specifies Chinese marking requirements for non-powered air-purifying particle respirators. Required on the product: manufacturer name or trademark, product name, product model, standard number (GB 2626-2019), performance class (KN90 or KN95), and the 'NR'/'R' designation. Required on the packaging: manufacturer name, address and contact, production date and shelf life (or expiry date), lot number, storage conditions, and instructions for use in Chinese. The CCC mark must appear on the product and packaging. Key differences from Indonesia: Chinese markings are in Chinese only (Indonesia requires Bahasa Indonesia); the CCC mark replaces the SNI mark; the standard cited is GB 2626 rather than the applicable SNI; and Chinese labelling does not carry an Indonesian importer's name and address.GB 2626-2019 — Clause 7 (Marking and packaging requirements)
China CCC (3C) mark — mandatory product certification mark on product and packaging
For particulate respirators placed on the Indonesian market under the SNI route, the labelling must comply with the marking provisions of the applicable SNI and with Indonesian product-information law requiring Indonesian-language (Bahasa Indonesia) labelling on goods. Typical markings ON THE PRODUCT and/or PACKAGING include: (1) manufacturer name or trademark; (2) product model/type designation; (3) the applicable SNI number and the performance class as defined by that SNI; (4) the SNI mark (Tanda SNI) together with the LSPro/certificate reference where required by the scheme; (5) the in-country importer's name and address; (6) production/expiry information, lot or batch number, and storage conditions as specified; (7) instructions for use (donning, fit-check, limitations, storage) in Bahasa Indonesia. For products on the MEDICAL route, labelling instead follows Kemenkes / BPOM medical-device rules and must carry the izin edar alat kesehatan registration number and the licensed distributor's details. The SNI catalogue and labelling rules are periodically revised, so the exact required marking set must be confirmed with the LSPro for the specific SNI cited.Marking provisions of the applicable SNI for respiratory protective equipment (SNI number and edition confirmed with the LSPro)

Multiple labelling gaps are typical for Chinese manufacturers exporting to Indonesia: (1) LANGUAGE: Chinese-only labelling and instructions do not satisfy Indonesian requirements — Bahasa Indonesia labelling and instructions for use are mandatory on goods placed on the market. (2) SNI MARK: Where the SNI is mandatory, the SNI mark (Tanda SNI) with the SPPT-SNI/LSPro reference must replace or accompany compliance marks; the CCC mark does not satisfy this and should not be presented as a substitute. (3) STANDARD CITATION: The product/instructions should reference the applicable Indonesian SNI rather than GB 2626-2019, and the performance class should use the SNI's class designation rather than 'KN95'. (4) IMPORTER DETAILS: The in-country importer's name and address must appear on the labelling. (5) MEDICAL CLAIMS: Any medical/surgical wording moves the product to the Kemenkes / BPOM route, where the izin edar number and licensed distributor must appear instead — labelling a particulate respirator with medical wording while only holding an SNI certificate is non-compliant. (6) NO MISLEADING CLASS CLAIM: Presenting a 'KN95' designation as if it were the SNI-certified class can be misleading; the labelled class must match what the SNI certificate actually grants.[INFORMATIONAL] Particulate respirators for the Indonesian market require labelling that complies with the applicable SNI marking provisions, the SNI mark (with SPPT-SNI/LSPro reference) where the SNI is mandatory, the in-country importer's details, and instructions for use in Bahasa Indonesia. Chinese-language-only labelling, CCC marks, and GB 2626 standard references are not sufficient. Adding medical or surgical wording moves the product to the Kemenkes / BPOM route, requiring the izin edar number and a licensed distributor instead. Class designations must match what the SNI certificate actually grants — presenting 'KN95' as the certified class can be misleading.

SNI Mark, SPPT-SNI Certificate, and In-Country Importer / Distributor (API-U / NIB / IPAK) China does not require the SNI mark. Domestic market conformity is demonstrated via the CCC mark (mandatory for GB 2626 respirators) or NMPA registration (for GB 19083 / YY 0469 medical masks). The CCC mark (China Compulsory Certification) is affixed after certification by a SAMR/CNCA-authorised body. China does not require a foreign importer-of-record arrangement for domestic sale, and there is no Chinese equivalent of the Indonesian API-U / NIB importer requirement for placing domestic goods on the market. The CCC mark, NMPA registration, and Chinese quality certificates are not accepted by Indonesian authorities as evidence of SNI conformity or of medical-device registration.China CCC (3C) certification — SAMR/CNCA mandatory certification mark for GB 2626-2019 industrial respirators
NMPA medical-device registration — for GB 19083 / YY 0469 medical masks
Before placing an industrial particulate respirator on the Indonesian market under the SNI route, the manufacturer (through its Indonesian importer) must: (1) Obtain an SPPT-SNI (Sertifikat Produk Penggunaan Tanda SNI) from a KAN-accredited LSPro — the certificate granting the legal right to apply the SNI mark — and, where the SNI is mandatory (wajib), this is a precondition for sale; (2) Apply the SNI mark (Tanda SNI) to the product and/or packaging in accordance with the LSPro scheme and BSN rules, including any required certificate reference; (3) Appoint a registered in-country importer holding API-U (Angka Pengenal Importir Umum) and an NIB (Nomor Induk Berusaha) — a foreign manufacturer cannot import directly, so an Indonesian legal entity must act as importer of record and is the point of contact for the authorities. For products on the MEDICAL route (Kemenkes / BPOM), the equivalent is an izin edar alat kesehatan registered through a licensed IPAK (Izin Penyalur Alat Kesehatan) distributor, not the SNI mark. Indonesian law also requires Indonesian-language product information (Bahasa Indonesia) on consumer goods.SPPT-SNI (Sertifikat Produk Penggunaan Tanda SNI) + SNI mark (Tanda SNI) — issued by a KAN-accredited LSPro under BSN rules

Medical route equivalent — izin edar alat kesehatan via a licensed IPAK distributor (Kemenkes / BPOM)
Indonesian-language (Bahasa Indonesia) product information requirement for goods placed on the market
Several distinct gaps must be closed: (1) SNI MARK: For products under a mandatory SNI, an SPPT-SNI from a KAN-accredited LSPro and the SNI mark are a legal precondition — Chinese CCC marks do not satisfy this and must not be presented as equivalent. (2) IMPORTER OF RECORD: A registered Indonesian importer with API-U and NIB must be appointed; a foreign manufacturer cannot import directly. (3) MEDICAL PRODUCTS: If the product is medical/surgical, the relevant instrument is an izin edar alat kesehatan via a licensed IPAK distributor (Kemenkes / BPOM), not the SNI mark. (4) LANGUAGE: Indonesian-language (Bahasa Indonesia) product information is required on the goods. (5) DOCUMENT SET: Import clearance typically requires the SPPT-SNI (or izin edar), the importer's API-U/NIB, and a commercial document set; Chinese certificates alone are insufficient. Chinese manufacturers commonly lack an appointed Indonesian importer/distributor — arranging one is required before the first shipment.[INFORMATIONAL] Industrial particulate respirators on the SNI route require an SPPT-SNI and the SNI mark (mandatory where the SNI is wajib) and must be imported through a registered Indonesian importer holding API-U and NIB. Medical and surgical masks instead require an izin edar alat kesehatan via a licensed IPAK distributor under Kemenkes / BPOM. Chinese CCC marks, NMPA registrations, and quality certificates do not substitute for any of these. Indonesian-language product information is required. A foreign manufacturer must appoint an in-country importer/distributor before the first shipment. Kementerian Perindustrian Republik Indonesia (Ministry of Industry, Kemenperin)2026-06-15 · reference
Particulate Respirator Safety — Indonesian SNI Performance Requirements China's primary standard for non-powered air-purifying particle respirators is GB 2626-2019 (Respiratory protective equipment — Non-powered air-purifying particle respirator), with performance classes KN90 and KN95. GB 2626-2019 is a mandatory national standard (GB, not GB/T) enforced by SAMR. KN95 requires ≥95% filtration efficiency against NaCl particles at 85 L/min flow rate. GB 2626 uses sodium chloride (NaCl) aerosol and, for oil-resistant classes, also an oil aerosol; it specifies inhalation/exhalation resistance, total inward leakage, dead space (CO2), and flammability. Whether a GB 2626 test report is accepted toward an Indonesian SNI depends entirely on the specific SNI cited and the LSPro scheme — a Chinese GB 2626 certificate is not automatically recognised, and re-testing or witness testing against the SNI is typically required.GB 2626-2019 — Respiratory protective equipment — Non-powered air-purifying particle respirator (mandatory national standard, SAMR)
GB/T 32610-2016 — Technical specification of daily protective mask (voluntary, for general public use — not industrial PPE)
Particulate respirators placed on the Indonesian market as industrial PPE are assessed against the applicable SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) for respiratory protective equipment. Indonesian SNI for respirators are developed by BSN and, in several cases, adopt or align with international standards (for example SNI that reference or adopt ISO/EN respirator test methods, or SNI for particulate respirators benchmarked to recognised filtration classes). The assessed characteristics typically mirror international practice: filtration efficiency against a test aerosol, inhalation and exhalation breathing resistance, total inward leakage / fit, CO2 content of inhaled air, and flammability. Conformity is demonstrated by type testing at a KAN-accredited laboratory against the cited SNI, as part of the SPPT-SNI scheme operated by a KAN-accredited LSPro. For occupational deployment, the Kemnaker (Ministry of Manpower) K3 framework governs selection and use of respiratory protection in the workplace. Exporters must confirm the exact SNI number and edition applicable to their respirator class with the LSPro, since the SNI catalogue is periodically revised.SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) for respiratory protective equipment / particulate respirators — applicable SNI number and edition to be confirmed with a KAN-accredited LSPro (BSN catalogue)
Kemnaker (Ministry of Manpower) K3 occupational safety and health framework — selection and use of respiratory protection in the workplace
Conformity demonstrated by type testing at a KAN-accredited laboratory under the SPPT-SNI scheme
Exporters must obtain testing against the applicable Indonesian SNI from (or accepted by) a KAN-accredited laboratory under an LSPro scheme. GB 2626-2019 (KN95) test reports do not automatically satisfy the SNI requirement because: (1) the cited SNI may adopt a different test methodology (e.g., aligned to ISO/EN methods rather than the GB 2626 method); (2) the SNI scheme typically requires testing at a KAN-accredited laboratory plus a factory/QMS audit, not just a foreign test report; (3) filtration class names and thresholds may not map directly (KN95 is a GB 2626 designation, not an SNI class designation). A complete assessment against the applicable SNI under the SPPT-SNI scheme is required — partial bridging from a GB 2626 certificate is generally not accepted without LSPro confirmation. Exporters should obtain the exact SNI number and edition from the LSPro before testing.[INFORMATIONAL] Particulate respirators for the Indonesian market are assessed against the applicable SNI via type testing at a KAN-accredited laboratory under an SPPT-SNI scheme, with occupational use framed by the Kemnaker K3 framework.

Exporters should confirm the exact SNI number, edition, and test methodology with a KAN-accredited LSPro before relying on any GB 2626 test report.

Medical-Protective Respirator / Medical Mask Safety — Kemenkes / BPOM Route (Not the SNI Industrial Route) GB 19083-2010 (Technical requirements for medical protective mask) requires ≥95% filtration efficiency (NaCl aerosol), surface moisture resistance, and pressure-differential testing, and is enforced by NMPA as a Class II medical device in China. YY 0469-2011 (Medical surgical mask) requires bacterial filtration efficiency ≥95% and is likewise an NMPA Class II medical device. Products certified under GB 19083 or YY 0469 in China are regulated as medical devices domestically, not as industrial PPE under GB 2626. The Indonesian equivalent route for such products is the Kemenkes / BPOM medical-device pathway (izin edar alat kesehatan via a licensed IPAK distributor) — the Chinese NMPA registration is not recognised and a fresh Indonesian medical-device registration is required.GB 19083-2010 — Technical requirements for medical protective mask (NMPA, Class II medical device)
YY 0469-2011 — Medical surgical mask — Technical requirements (NMPA, Class II medical device)
This row addresses medical-protective respirators and medical/surgical masks for completeness. In Indonesia, when a respirator or mask serves a MEDICAL function (infection control, surgical use, patient/environment protection, or is labelled medical/surgical), it is regulated as a medical device (alat kesehatan) by the Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) and BPOM, NOT through the industrial SNI / Kemnaker route. Such products require an izin edar alat kesehatan (medical-device marketing authorisation / distribution permit) registered by a licensed Indonesian medical-device distributor holding an IPAK (Izin Penyalur Alat Kesehatan). Technical evaluation references the product's safety and performance dossier (filtration efficiency, bacterial filtration efficiency, fluid resistance, breathability, biocompatibility as applicable) and supporting test data. The FFP-style industrial respirator route covered in the other rows of this comparison is the SNI / Kemnaker route; a product cannot rely on an SNI certificate to satisfy the Kemenkes medical-device requirement, and vice versa. See the scope fragment (ppeidn-scope) for the critical industrial-vs-medical boundary.Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) Regulation on medical-device distribution / izin edar alat kesehatan + BPOM oversight
IPAK (Izin Penyalur Alat Kesehatan) — licence required for the Indonesian medical-device distributor registering the product
Industrial route (for contrast): SNI via accredited LSPro + Kemnaker K3 framework (covered in the other rows)
GB 19083 / YY 0469 certification is for China's domestic medical-device market and has no direct Indonesian recognition. Selling a medical or surgical mask in Indonesia requires an izin edar alat kesehatan registered through a licensed Indonesian distributor (IPAK) under Kemenkes / BPOM — not an SNI certificate. Conversely, registering only via the SNI / Kemnaker industrial route does not authorise medical/surgical claims. Specific gaps: (1) appoint a licensed IPAK distributor in Indonesia; (2) compile a medical-device technical dossier (intended use, performance and safety test data, labelling) acceptable to Kemenkes; (3) obtain the izin edar before importation/sale; (4) ensure labelling and marketing claims match the registered intended use. A product straddling both industrial and medical claims may need both an SNI certificate and a Kemenkes registration, which is significantly more burdensome.[INFORMATIONAL] Chinese GB 19083 / YY 0469 (medical-protective and surgical masks) certification is not recognised in Indonesia. Medical and surgical masks must be registered as medical devices (izin edar alat kesehatan) under Kemenkes / BPOM through a licensed IPAK distributor — not via the industrial SNI / Kemnaker route. Exporters must choose the correct Indonesian route based on the product's intended-use claim, and a dual industrial-plus-medical claim may require both an SNI certificate and a Kemenkes medical-device registration.

CRITICAL BOUNDARY: Industrial Respirator (SNI / Kemnaker) vs. Medical Mask (Kemenkes / BPOM) — Which Indonesian Route Applies? China uses a three-track classification system for respiratory masks: (1) INDUSTRIAL / NON-MEDICAL: GB 2626-2019 (KN90/KN95) — particle respirators for occupational use, mandatory CCC, administered by SAMR; (2) MEDICAL-PROTECTIVE: GB 19083-2010 (≥95% filtration, medical-grade) — for highly infectious environments, administered by NMPA as a Class II medical device; (3) SURGICAL MASK: YY 0469-2011 (Medical surgical mask — Technical requirements) — bacterial filtration efficiency ≥95%, NMPA Class II medical device. The Chinese three-track system maps onto the Indonesian split in a comparable way: GB 2626 industrial respirators correspond to the Indonesian SNI / Kemnaker route, while GB 19083 and YY 0469 medical masks correspond to the Indonesian Kemenkes / BPOM medical-device route. As in the EU, the mapping is not 1:1 because the underlying test methods and certification schemes differ, and a Chinese certificate does not transfer to either Indonesian route.GB 2626-2019 — Non-powered air-purifying particle respirator (KN90/KN95) — SAMR/CCC
GB 19083-2010 — Technical requirements for medical protective mask — NMPA Class II
YY 0469-2011 — Medical surgical mask — Technical requirements — NMPA Class II
GB/T 32610-2016 — Technical specification of daily protective mask (voluntary, general public — not industrial or medical)
The industrial-PPE-vs-medical-device boundary is the most commercially significant classification decision for respiratory products entering Indonesia, because each route is governed by a different ministry. The determining factor is the INTENDED PURPOSE declared by the manufacturer. (A) INDUSTRIAL / OCCUPATIONAL PARTICULATE RESPIRATORS (SNI / KEMNAKER ROUTE): Products intended to protect the WEARER against airborne particles, dust, or hazardous workplace environments. Route: SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) certification via a KAN-accredited LSPro (SPPT-SNI + SNI mark) under BSN and Kemenperin, with workplace use framed by the Kemnaker (Ministry of Manpower) K3 occupational safety and health system. (B) MEDICAL AND SURGICAL MASKS / MEDICAL-PROTECTIVE RESPIRATORS (KEMENKES / BPOM ROUTE): Products intended for medical use, infection control, surgical use, or patient/environment protection, including products labelled medical or surgical. Route: regulated as medical devices (alat kesehatan) by the Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) and BPOM, requiring an izin edar alat kesehatan (medical-device marketing authorisation / distribution permit) issued to a licensed Indonesian distributor (IPAK / penyalur alat kesehatan). This route is independent of the SNI / Kemnaker industrial route. (C) DUAL-CLAIM PRODUCTS: A product claiming BOTH workplace particulate protection AND a medical/surgical function may be pulled into both regimes; the correct classification must be settled with the LSPro and Kemenkes before importation. There is no Indonesian equivalent of the EU COVID-era temporary flexibility for routine market access.BSN / SNI system + Kemenperin (Ministry of Industry) — industrial particulate respirator route (SPPT-SNI via accredited LSPro)
Kemnaker (Ministry of Manpower) K3 occupational safety and health framework — workplace respiratory protection
Ministry of Health (Kemenkes) Regulation on medical-device distribution (izin edar alat kesehatan) + BPOM — medical / surgical mask route
Importer / distributor licensing — IPAK (Izin Penyalur Alat Kesehatan) for medical devices; API-U / NIB for general goods
The single most important classification decision is: what does the product label and intended-use statement claim? (1) If the product claims WEARER PROTECTION against workplace particles/dust (occupational, industrial): the SNI / Kemnaker route applies — SPPT-SNI via a KAN-accredited LSPro plus alignment with the Kemnaker K3 framework. (2) If the product claims MEDICAL, SURGICAL, or infection-control use: the Kemenkes / BPOM medical-device route applies — an izin edar alat kesehatan held by a licensed Indonesian distributor (IPAK). (3) If the product claims BOTH: it may be pulled into both regimes and must be resolved case-by-case. COMMON EXPORT MISTAKE: Chinese manufacturers label KN95 (GB 2626) masks with medical or surgical wording to broaden their market. In Indonesia, any medical/surgical claim moves the product out of the SNI / Kemnaker route and into the Kemenkes / BPOM medical-device route, requiring a completely different marketing authorisation and a licensed medical-device distributor — selling such a product on an industrial route alone is non-compliant.[INFORMATIONAL — CRITICAL BOUNDARY] In Indonesia, industrial particulate respirators (wearer protection against workplace particles) follow the SNI / Kemnaker route (SPPT-SNI via accredited LSPro), while medical and surgical masks follow the Kemenkes / BPOM medical-device route (izin edar alat kesehatan via a licensed IPAK distributor). The two routes are governed by different ministries and must not be mixed. Chinese KN95 (GB 2626) respirators exported to Indonesia as industrial PPE must follow the SNI route — adding medical or surgical labelling moves the product into the Kemenkes / BPOM regime, a frequent cause of import rejection when that authorisation is absent.
