- Following the stipulation of monkeypox ("Mpox") as a public health emergency of international concern by the World Health Organization (WHO), the Director-General of Air Transportation at the Ministry of Transportation ("Director-General") has decided to reinstate the mandatory utilization of the SATUSEHAT application by international travelers (Pelaku Perjalanan Luar Negeri – "PPLN") through the issuance of Circular No. SE 5 DJPU of 2024 ("Circular 5/2024"), which came into force on 27 August 2024.
- In essence, Circular 5/2024 mandates that both domestic and foreign airlines that operate international flights to and from Indonesia must publicize and inform their passengers and crews as PPLN to complete the SATUSEHAT Health Pass electronic self-declaration form prior to their departure. The aforementioned SATUSEHAT Health Pass can be accessed through: sshp.kemkes.go.id.
- Furthermore, Circular 5/2024 also mandates that organizers of airports that are classified as international airports must coordinate with the Health Quarantine Office to facilitate the implementation of this requirement and manage any issues that arise, particularly in terms of efforts to prevent the transmission of Mpox within Indonesia. Said coordination also extends to the handling of passengers who are suspected of Mpox infection upon their arrival.
