If you manufacture, import, or sell GPS tracker devices in Indonesia, you are legally required to obtain SDPPI (Postel) certification issued by the Directorate General of Digital Infrastructure (DJID) under KOMDIGI – the Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs.
This regulation is part of the government’s efforts to control and ensure all telecommunication equipment meets national technical standards.
What Is a GPS Tracker?
GPS Tracker is an electronic device that uses Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites to track and monitor the real-time location of an object. Common Uses of GPS Trackers:
- Vehicle Tracking: For personal cars, trucks, motorbikes, and fleets
- Fleet Management: Logistics and delivery operations
- Asset Monitoring: For bags, valuable items, or cargo
- Personal Safety: Children, seniors, or pets
Why Is SDPPI (DJID) Certification Mandatory?
GPS Trackers typically include wireless communication modules such as: GSM / 4G / 5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth. These modules transmit radio frequency (RF) signals, which legally classifies the device as a telecommunication device under Indonesian law. As a result, certification from SDPPI is mandatory before distribution or use in the country.
Applicable Regulations for GPS Tracker Certification
Importers, manufacturers, or distributors of GPS Trackers must comply with several KOMDIGI regulations:
| Regulation | Scope |
| KEPMEN KOMDIGI No. 12/2025 | Wi-Fi usage in GPS devices |
| KEPMEN KOMDIGI No. 352/2024 | 4G LTE & 5G module certification |
| KEPMEN KOMDIGI No. 45/2025 | GSM & WCDMA usage |
| KEPMEN KOMDIGI No. 260/2024 | Bluetooth usage |
Each module in the GPS tracker (e.g., Wi-Fi, GSM, Bluetooth) must be individually certified to ensure total compliance.
