Amino-acid cleanser OEM for Indonesia: how is the surfactant system chosen, and what must be right for notification and labeling?
For Indonesia, build the amino-acid cleanser around amino-acid salt plus amphoteric/non-ionic co-surfactants, holding pH in mildly acidic to neutral range. If makeup/sunscreen removal is needed, add helpers rather than just raising total actives, and verify with low-temperature cycling and rinse-off checks. Registration is pre-market Notifkos notification with BPOM; labels must follow PerBPOM 18/2024 with Bahasa Indonesia claims/usage/warnings and full INCI list. Also prepare for BPJPH halal / NON HALAL labelling and PerBPOM 25/2025 ingredient limits by the 2026 deadlines; verify against the latest official texts.
1Surfactant system (facial · amino-acid route)
Use amino-acid salts as the main surfactant with amphoteric betaine and APG or B5 co-surfactants; target pH 5.5–6.5. If rich, stable foam is required, accept a slightly slicker feel rather than just raising total actives.
2Indonesia BPOM notification and responsible party
Each SKU needs pre-market Notifkos notification via BPOM's e-system by an Indonesian legal entity (local manufacturer, importer or licensee); imports require a foreign manufacturer's authorisation letter. Fees: IDR 500,000 for ASEAN-made, IDR 1,500,000 otherwise; 3-year validity, subject to latest texts.
3Labeling and halal / limits compliance
PerBPOM 18/2024: Bahasa Indonesia for claims, usage, warnings, plus full INCI, notification number, batch, expiry, and manufacturer/importer. From 2026, meet PerBPOM 25/2025 ingredient limits and mark non-halal cosmetics with a red 'NON HALAL' label.
