Indonesia's SDPPI (Direktorat Jenderal Sumber Daya dan Perangkat Pos dan Informatika) develops, plans and implements standardization policies for radio and communications. Its public-service functions include spectrum licensing and supervision of RF interference and irregularities, and it provides wireless and telecommunications testing and certification. Indonesian Postel certification is also called SDPPI certification. Wireless products exported to Indonesia must pass SDPPI type approval and customs inspection, mandatory since June 2009.
