Codes
SD, SI, SL
Validity
5 years

Health supplements are registered with BPOM and carry an SD number when produced domestically or an SI number when imported. The registration is valid for five years.

Supplements sit alongside traditional medicine in BPOM’s structure and follow a similar dossier and laboratory-testing process. Halal certification extends to supplements, with the 17 October 2026 deadline under GR 42/2024. A foreign brand registers through a local license holder.

How registration works

  1. Appoint a local license holder
    Imported supplements (SI) are registered by an Indonesian entity.
  2. Compile the dossier
    Composition, GMP certification, a Free Sale Certificate, and label artwork.
  3. Submit to BPOM and test samples
    Physical samples are commonly required for laboratory testing.
  4. Receive the SD or SI number
    The registration is valid for five years before renewal.

What you need

  • A local license holder for imported (SI) products.
  • Composition, GMP certification and a Free Sale Certificate.
  • Halal certification (deadline 17 October 2026 under GR 42/2024).
