In today’s digital era, data security and electronic identification are becoming increasingly important. One device that plays a key role in many industries is the smart card reader. This hardware is designed to read and process data stored in smart cards, which are embedded with secure chips.
What is a Smart Card Reader?
A smart card reader is widely used in banking, public transportation, healthcare, and digital identification. It allows systems to authenticate users, process payments, and grant secure access.
Key Functions
- Data Security – Ensures reliable authentication.
- Financial Transactions – Supports chip-based payments.
- System Access – Grants secure entry to systems or applications.
- Digital Identity – Used in e-ID cards, driver’s licenses, and insurance cards.
Types of Smart Card Readers
- Contact Reader – Requires inserting the card into the slot. Affordable but prone to wear.
- Contactless Reader – Uses RFID/NFC technology. Faster, but more costly.
- Dual Interface Reader – Combines contact and contactless in one card.
- Hybrid Reader – Reads both contact and contactless cards separately.
Why DJID Certification is Mandatory
In Indonesia, smart card readers fall under communication devices because they rely on RFID and NFC technology. To be marketed legally, they must obtain certification from the DJID (Directorate General of Digital Infrastructure).
The regulation is outlined in KEPMEN Kominfo No. 260 of 2024, which sets frequency bands and transmission power limits. By meeting these standards, devices are considered safe, compatible, and legal in the Indonesian market.
Ensuring Compliance with Cerapproval
If you are an importer, distributor, or manufacturer, securing DJID certification is a must before launching your smart card reader in Indonesia. This process not only ensures compliance but also builds trust with clients and end-users.
Cerapproval is ready to assist companies in achieving certification quickly and accurately, ensuring products meet both local and international standards.
