SPI summary

Ministerial regulation requiring producers to prepare and implement waste reduction roadmaps, aiming for a 30% reduction in producers' waste by 2029 against projected waste generation, with provisions on incentives, disincentives and financing.

In practice

MoEF Regulation P.75/2019 requires producers in manufacturing, food and beverage services and retail to prepare, carry out and report on a waste reduction roadmap for 2020 to 2029. The target is a 30% reduction against projected 2029 waste, and Annex I lists phase-outs from 1 January 2030 including plastic straws, foam food containers, single-use plastic bags, single-use PVC and PS packaging and flexible PP sachets under 50 ml or 50 g. Brand owners and retailers are directly covered; converters supplying these formats face substitution.

SPI analysis

Overview

Regulation P.75/2019 of the Minister of Environment and Forestry is the instrument that turns Indonesia's general producer duties into a ten-year plan. Government Regulation No. 81 of 2012 had already told producers to limit waste, recycle and reuse (Arts. 12 to 14), and Article 15 of that regulation requires a shift to decomposable, low-waste, recyclable and reusable materials in stages over ten-year periods through a roadmap set by the environment minister3. P.75/2019 states that it implements Article 15(2), and it also rests on Law No. 18 of 2008 on Waste Management and Law No. 32 of 2009 on environmental protection12.

The regulation covers 2020 to 2029 and sets one number: waste reduction by producers of 30% against the waste generation of 2029 (Art. 2)1. It was set in Jakarta on 18 October 2019, promulgated on 5 December 2019 in the State Gazette 2019 No. 1545 and took effect on promulgation (Art. 27)12. The BPK database lists it as in force with no amendment or revocation2.

The method is plan, do and report. Producers write a roadmap with a baseline, product inventory and targets, carry it out with take-back and collection facilities, monitor at least every six months and report every year, while the Minister, governors and regents or mayors supervise at least once a year (Arts. 10, 13, 16 and 18)1.

Duties

Who must do what

Manufacturer (food and beverage, consumer goods, personal care and cosmetics)

  • Prepare a roadmap plan naming the person in charge, baseline, targets, product inventory, reduction methods, trial runs and a communication plan, in the Annex II format (Art. 10)1.
  • Submit the plan to the Minister through the Director General, with copies to the governor and regent or mayor, attaching the company identity, environmental permit or SPPL, and business permits (Art. 12)1.
  • Label items marketed as compostable, recyclable or reusable, and build any local government ban into the plan (Art. 10(3) and 10(4))1.
  • Provide take-back and collection facilities protected from rain and heat, with closed, labelled containers separated by material, shape or colour, alone or with registered waste banks, TPS 3R or recycling centres (Art. 7)1.

Retail (shopping centres, modern stores, traditional markets)

  • Carry out the same planning, monitoring and reporting cycle; in commercial areas the area manager coordinates planning for tenants (Arts. 9 and 11)1.
  • Plan for the Annex I end to single-use plastic bags in retail from 1 January 20301.

Food and beverage services (restaurants, cafés, catering, hotels)

  • Follow the roadmap cycle and plan for the Annex I end to single-use plastic bags and cutlery in food service from 1 January 2030 (Art. 3; Annex I)1.
  • Franchisees holding an SPPL may be coordinated by the parent company (Art. 11)1.

Minister of Environment and Forestry, governors and regents or mayors

  • Verify producer reports and record the result in an official report (berita acara) (Art. 17)1.
  • Supervise producers at least once a year, with the Minister stepping in where a local government does not (Arts. 18(4) and 19)1.
Scope

Are you in scope?

Work through each question. The answers are the SPI team's reading of the sources cited.

  1. Does your business make food and beverages, consumer goods or personal care and cosmetic products in Indonesia?

    If yes
    You are a manufacturing-sector producer under Article 31.
    If no
    Check the food service and retail sectors.

  2. Do you run a restaurant, café, caterer or hotel, or a shopping centre, modern store or traditional market?

    If yes
    You fall in the food and beverage service or retail sector of Article 31.
    If no
    The regulation lists no other sectors.

  3. Do you distribute imported packaged goods?

    If yes
    Article 1 includes distributors of imported packaged goods in the definition of producer1.
    If no
    Your status rests on your own production or sale.

  4. Is the product, packaging or container made of plastic, aluminium can, glass or paper that is hard to decompose, non-recyclable or non-reusable?

    If yes
    It is covered by Article 41.
    If no
    Easily decomposed, recyclable or reusable items are the target state rather than the problem the roadmap must reduce.

  5. Do you use straws, foam food containers, PVC or PS packaging, or PP sachets under 50 ml or 50 g?

    If yes
    Annex I lists these for phase-out from 1 January 20301.
    If no
    The 30% reduction duty still applies to other covered packaging.
Checklist

Compliance checklist

  1. Fix the baseline and target

    By Now

    SPI analysis of the official text. Not legal advice; confirm with the text or counsel. Set the baseline waste generation and project 2029 volumes, since the 30% reduction in Article 2 is measured against 2029 generation, not a past year1.

    Evidence to keep Baseline table in the Annex II format.

  2. Submit or update the roadmap plan

    By Now

    File the plan with the Minister and copy the provincial and district heads under Article 12. The regulation states no submission deadline1.

    Evidence to keep Submission letter and receipt.

  3. Run six-monthly monitoring

    By Every six months

    Monitor at least once every six months and document it in writing (Art. 13)1.

    Evidence to keep Signed monitoring records.

  4. Report annually

    By Every year to 2029

    Report reduced materials, reusable and recyclable inputs, take-back, residue and obstacles in the Annex IV format, alongside environmental permit or SPPL reporting (Art. 16; Annex I)1.

    Evidence to keep Annual report and covering letter.

  5. Redesign the Annex I formats

    By 1 January 2030

    Replace straws, foam food containers, PVC and PS packaging, single-use bags and PP sachets under 50 ml or 50 g before the Annex I phase-out date1.

    Evidence to keep SKU list with replacement format and switch date.

  6. Check local bans

    By Now

    Article 10(4) requires the plan to include local government bans, which may come earlier than 20301.

    Evidence to keep List of provincial and city rules by market.

Enforcement

Enforcement and penalties

Who enforces
Minister of Environment and Forestry, governors and regents or mayors1
Powers
Authorities verify reports, supervise producers at least once a year and may publish good or poor performance in print or electronic media as an incentive or disincentive (Arts. 17, 18 and 22)1.
Enforcement so far
SPI has not found a published sanction or a published poor-performance list under P.75/2019 as of 14 October 2026.

Penalties

BreachPenaltyLegal basis
Producer that does not reduce wasteNot set in P.75/2019; sanctions follow other lawsP.75/2019, Art. 21, which refers to sanctions under other legislation; Government Regulation No. 81 of 2012 sets none, and SPI has not yet confirmed the sanction articles of Law No. 18 of 200813

The main stick written into the regulation itself is publicity: Article 22 provides for publishing poor performance, and Article 24 ties awards to whichever level of government issued the environmental permit1. Whether a fine can follow depends on the sanction provisions of Law No. 18 of 2008; SPI has not yet checked those articles.
