Cosmetics Registration Services in Indonesia

Yes. Cosmetic products must obtain BPOM notification before they can be legally distributed in Indonesia. This applies to both imported and locally manufactured cosmetic products.

BPOM cosmetic notification is the market authorization process for cosmetic products in Indonesia. Once the notification is issued, the product receives a notification number that supports legal distribution.

Cosmetic products are generally registered by an eligible Indonesian entity, such as a local manufacturer, importer, distributor, or appointed notification holder that meets BPOM requirements.

Foreign brands usually need a local applicant, importer, distributor, or appointed representative in Indonesia to manage BPOM notification and post-market responsibility.

Common documents include product formula, ingredient list, label artwork, manufacturer information, GMP-related documents, Certificate of Free Sale, authorization letter, and Product Information Document records.

DIP, or Product Information Document, is a product file containing administrative, quality, safety, benefit, and compliance information. It must be prepared and maintained for BPOM supervision or audit.

Cosmetic notification is generally valid for three years and can be renewed if the product continues to meet the applicable requirements.
