Apple’s iPhone 16: Will selling of the new iPhone be forbidden in Indonesia? Consider the reason behind this. Is Indonesia banned the iPhone 16? The iPhone 16 or new model is not being sold even on Apple’s official website in Indonesia, which would point to a ban in effect.
The Awadh Times, New Delhi: Apple debuted the iPhone new series a few days ago and it is now available in several nations all over. But the story of the iPhone fresh differs in regard to Indonesia. The direction of iPhone News in Indonesia is yet unknown with much uncertainty.
Though the Indonesian government has not formally announced a ban on it, there have been rumors on well-known Indonesian websites like Kompas.com that imply selling new iPhones might be forbidden.
Apple’s website makes no reference whatsoever of the upcoming iPhone.
Reports claim that without certification, the Indonesian Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita has said the iPhone 16 might not be allowed to be sold. This is so because Apple has not satisfactorially addressed the expected investment needs.
The iPhone itself is not listed on any of the several main e-commerce platforms in Indonesia, even if the new 2024 is available on Tokopedia, Blibli, and Lazada. On these markets, nevertheless, the iPhone new 2024 accessories are accessible. The fact that Apple’s official Indonesian website does not offer the iPhone 16 or any of its latest models points to a ban perhaps in place even if a formal government order has not been issued.

Differences on the expenditure
The whole scenario is related to investing. Apple has only invested 1.48 trillion rupiah as of right now out of a promise of 1.71 trillion rupiah, leaving a 230 billion rupiah difference. This shortfall affects the TKDN certification, a local component level certification needing local content at least forty percent for imported goods sold in Indonesia.
Kartasasmita, the Minister of Industry, said Kompas “We, the Ministry of Industry, cannot yet issue approval for the iPhone 16 because Apple has yet to fulfil certain commitments.”
Recently visiting Jakarta, Apple’s Chief Executive Officer, Tim Cook, met with President Joko Widodo to explore manufacturing options.
Still, Apple will not meet its requirement until it satisfies its promise to keep making investments in Indonesian facilities, including the building of local Apple stores.Academies for R&D, the future of the iPhone fresh in the Indonesian market stays in uncertainty.
