How to Get SNI Certification – Indonesia National Standard

In Indonesia, with the wide array of products available—ranging from daily-use items to food and beverages—product quality and safety must be regulated. To ensure that, the government mandates compliance with SNI (Standar Nasional Indonesia) or the Indonesian National Standard. What Is SNI Certification? SNI is the only nationally applicable standard in Indonesia. It is developed by Technical Committees and officially published by the National Standardization Agency (BSN). Established under Government Regulation No. 102 of 2000, SNI serves as a benchmark to ensure the quality and safety of goods in the market. Products that meet SNI requirements receive a certification mark on their packaging, indicating that they comply with Indonesia’s national quality standards. Why Is SNI Certification Important? For consumers, the SNI mark assures safety and product reliability. It builds confidence that the item in use has passed the necessary quality checks. For businesses and manufacturers, obtaining SNI certification boosts brand credibility, enhances market access, and provides legal protection. It also supports competitiveness by affirming consistent quality. Despite these benefits, many businesses still hesitate to obtain SNI due to lack of knowledge or misconceptions about the process. Step-by-Step Guide to Get SNI Certification 1. Submit the SPPT SNI Application Form Begin by filling out the SPPT SNI (Product Certificate for SNI Mark Usage) form. You’ll need to provide the following documents: 2. Application Verification The LSPro-Pustan team (a product certification agency) will verify your application, assessing audit location feasibility and language understanding. This step typically takes one day, followed by an invoice with the detailed certification cost. 3. Quality Management System Audit An audit will be conducted to assess whether your quality management system complies with SPPT SNI requirements. If any non-conformities are found, corrections must be made within two months. 4. Product Sampling and Testing LSPro-Pustan will collect samples from your production site for testing. The tests are conducted in KAN-accredited laboratories. If testing occurs at your own lab, official witnesses are required. This process can take at least 20 working days. If your product fails the initial test, you’ll be asked to perform internal retesting before another external verification is conducted. 5. Sample Assessment Results Test results are reviewed. If the product does not meet the SNI criteria, a retest must be carried out. Continuous failure to meet the standards will result in rejection of the SPPT SNI application. 6. Certification Decision After audits and tests are completed, all documentation will be reviewed in a panel meeting. This review process takes approximately seven working days, followed by a one-day final meeting. 7. Issuance of SPPT SNI Certificate Upon successful evaluation, the SPPT SNI certificate is granted.
