Background
To ensure the safety and quality of food products entering the country, the Government of Indonesia, through the food and drug supervisory agency (Badan Pengawas Obat dan Makanan or “BPOM”) and various ministries, requires business actors to obtain certain licenses and comply with labeling requirements.
With changes to the licensing process through the Online Single Submission system and BPOM’s online system, importers of food products need to understand the licensing process procedures and requirements and the documents required for business actors to comply with the laws and regulations concerning food imports in Indonesia.
