28 Mar 🇮🇩 Indonesia | New Technical Standards for Wireless Power Transmission Devices Now in Force
Indonesia has officially enacted Ministerial Decree No. 46 of 2025, introducing updated technical standards and class license frequency allocations for Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) devices. Effective February 18, 2025, this regulation repeals the previous Decree No. 260/2024 and aims to ensure electromagnetic compatibility, technical performance, and spectrum efficiency for modern wireless charging technologies.
📅 Date of publication: February 18, 2025
🏛 Regulatory Authority: Ministry of Communication and Digital (KOMDIGI)
Regulation Status
📌 Status: In force since February 18, 2025.
📌 Next Steps: Manufacturers must ensure new or existing devices comply before submitting for approval or renewal.
Regulatory Impact
Type Approval & Market Access
✔ All WPT devices must now comply with stricter testing and certification criteria to obtain or renew market authorization in Indonesia.
✔ Previously issued test reports may be accepted, provided they meet the new technical standards.
Spectrum Management & Technical Standards
✔ The Decree assigns five radio frequency bands for class-licensed WPT operations:
-
-
- 100–148.5 kHz
- 315–405 kHz
- 1700–1800 kHz
- 6765–6795 kHz
- 13.553–13.567 MHz
-
✔ Specific field strength limits apply to each band to reduce harmful interference.
✔ Compliance with international standards (e.g., ETSI EN 300 330, EN 303 417, CISPR 32) is mandatory for EMC and radio performance.
✔ Only devices with integrated antennas are permitted.
✔ Mandatory radiated and spurious emissions testing at 10-meter distances.
✔ Devices must pass electrical safety evaluations according to standards such as IEC 62368-1 and IEC 60950-1.
✔ Depending on classification, AC or battery-powered configurations determine applicable limits and testing procedures.
Impact on Imports, Customs & Market Surveillance
✔ Importers must ensure full compliance with the new regulation to secure type approval from SDPPI.
More Details
The regulation, titled KEPMEN KOMDIGI No. 46/2025, aims to govern the use of Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) technology by assigning harmonized radio frequency bands under class licensing. This move addresses the increasing deployment of wireless charging solutions in mobile devices, wearables, electric vehicles, and smart accessories across Indonesia.
To minimize interference and ensure technical safety, the Decree introduces several key requirements:
- Strict electromagnetic field strength limits, such as a maximum of 66 dBμA/m at 10 meters for the 100–148.5 kHz band.
- Emission limits aligned with international EMC standards, specifically CISPR 32 and ETSI EN 300 330 / EN 303 417.
- Mandatory electrical safety tests for devices with high-power or high-voltage components, referring to IEC 62368-1 and IEC 60950-1.
- Antenna integration requirement to prevent interference from user-modifiable components.
Test reports issued before the enactment date (February 18, 2025) may still be accepted during approval—provided they comply with the updated technical requirements outlined in the decree.
Importantly, this regulation repeals and invalidates Ministerial Decree No. 260/2024, which is now officially obsolete. All certifications and approvals moving forward must comply with the new framework.
KEPMEN 46/2025 aligns with international best practices and reinforces Indonesia’s regulatory infrastructure for safe, efficient, and interference-free use of modern WPT technology.
