To ensure the safety of local consumers, all beauty products, including cosmetics, are required to be registered before entering the local market. The National Agency for Drug and Food Control of Indonesia (Badan Pengawas Obat dan Makanan) or BPOM is a government agency responsible for protecting the public through the control and supervision of cosmetics. If your product is deemed safe and qualified, BPOM will issue a market authorization permit. The cosmetic registration process will take 14 days to 2 months to complete. Once the BPOM notification is issued, you should import all registered products within six months to keep the cosmetic product notification valid.
Keep in mind that before carrying out product registration, cosmetic companies must have a Cosmetic Notification Recommendation License to be able to activate BPOM account registration. BPOM will first conduct a building facility inspection to ensure that your products comply with all safety and standard distribution requirements to get the license.
To complete the cosmetic registration process successfully, you have to meet quality, safety, labeling, and claim requirements. In addition, the applicant must provide supporting documents such as a Business Identification Number (NIB), New Format of Taxpayer Identification Number (NPWP), Director ID, responsible technical person ID, and others.

As a Muslim-majority country, halal certification in Indonesia is essential for cosmetic products entering the local market.
According to Government Regulation No. 39 of 2021 concerning implementing the Field of Halal Product Assurance, cosmetic products are given time to carry out Halal certification from October 17, 2021 to October 17, 2026.
Contact InCorp Indonesia to certify your halal products as soon as your products are registered.
Starting A Company
Only Indonesian legal entities are allowed to import and distribute foreign cosmetic products in the archipelago. Those who do not intend to establish a new company from scratch can purchase a ready-made shelf company with a clear business history instead. In addition, InCorp can help you find trusted local partners who can act as product distributors.
Product License Holder Services
Entrepreneurs who do not opt to incorporate a company in Indonesia can register cosmetic products through Cekindo. Under a special purpose agreement, InCorp Indonesia can act as an agent to provide all necessary licenses without intervening in your business.
Extension of Cosmetic Product Registration
License extensions and cosmetics registration in Indonesia are lengthy processes you should prepare for well in advance. Contact InCorp Indonesia to extend your license before its three-year expiry date, so you do not have to reenter the registration process.
