Two new laboratories have been officially recognized under the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) between Indonesia and South Korea. Previously, we knew that Nemko Korea and Dt&C were South Korean laboratories recognized under the MRA with Indonesia.
Now, the list of South Korean laboratories recognized under the MRA with Indonesia has expanded with the addition of two new laboratories: Korea Testing Laboratory (KTL) and Eurofins KCTL Co., Ltd.
With this recognition, the total number of South Korean laboratories recognized under the MRA with Indonesia now stands at four. With the addition of these laboratories, it is hoped that the certification process will become faster, testing capacity will be expanded, and more options will be available for manufacturers and importers of devices.
