Indonesia’s Food and Drug Monitoring Agency has issued a draft regulation on the withdrawal and destruction of cosmetics, natural medicines, quasi-drugs, and health supplements that fail to meet safety, quality, labeling, advertising, or legal requirements.
Public comments must be submitted by 30 June 2026.
The draft sets clear procedures for both mandatory withdrawals ordered by authorities and voluntary withdrawals initiated by permit holders. It introduces a risk-based classification system — Class I, II, and III — based on potential health impact.
Companies must prepare withdrawal plans, notify authorities, manage product returns, and submit reports within defined timelines.
The regulation also covers safe and environmentally compliant destruction of products, raw materials, packaging, labels, and advertising materials.
Public recall communication, community participation, repackaging conditions, and administrative sanctions are also included.
Non-compliance may lead to warnings, suspension, or revocation of distribution permits, strengthening product safety and regulatory accountability in Indonesia.
