WAREHOUSE REGISTRATION MARK (TDG) REQUIREMENTS

To have a TDG (Warehouse Registration Mark) from the Minister of Trade, every warehouse owner must register a warehouse. TDG is proof of warehouse registration given to the warehouse owner. The Minister of Trade grants the authority to issue TDG to the Governor of DKI Jakarta for DKI Jakarta Province, regents/mayors, and can be delegated to the head of the one-stop integrated service unit.

The issuance of TDG is carried out electronically by the head of the one-stop integrated service unit, which is integrated with the system of ministries and non-ministerial government agencies and submits a copy of TDG to the minister and the head of the agency in charge of trade. TDG is a Business License to Support Business Activities (also known as PB-UMKU), so the application is made through the OSS RBA system.

TDG application requirements:

1. Proof of payment of pnbp;
2. Warehouse address and coordinates;
3. Documentation of the front, right side, left side, back, and inside of the warehouse;
4. TDG technical data form.

There are some warehouses that are not included in the warehouse registration rules, including:

1. Warehouses located in bonded stockpiles;
2. Warehouses supervised by the directorate general in charge of customs; and
3. Warehouses located in retail or retail businesses used to store retail merchandise or warehouses located at production sites.

Legal Basis:

1. Government Regulation Number 5 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Risk-Based Business Licensing;
2. Government Regulation Number 29 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of the Trade Sector.
