This was reported by a representative of the country's Ministry of Industry. However, despite this, the company cannot sell its devices in the country & mdash; This requires additional permissions.

< P > Certificates were issued after Apple has announced investments in Indonesia for more than $ 300 million last month. Funds will be directed for the construction of components and creation of the Center for Research and Development.

< P > In 2023, Indonesia authorities banned the sale of iPhone 16 because of the inconsistency with the requirements for the use of locally produced components. Now Apple has received permission to release 11 models of phones and 9 tablets as she was able to fulfill these conditions.

< P > However, to start sales, companies need permissions from the Ministry of Communications and Digital Technologies, as well as from the Ministry of Commerce. So far neither Apple nor Indonesian agencies have commented on the situation.
