Indonesia is exploring India’s Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) model as it seeks to accelerate its own digital transformation. While India’s Unified Payments Interface (UPI) has already attracted global attention, Indonesian policymakers are now studying the country’s broader digital ecosystem to strengthen governance, financial inclusion and public service delivery.
The initiative goes beyond digital payments. Indonesia is examining flagship Indian platforms such as Aadhaar, DigiLocker, UPI and the Account Aggregator framework, which together form the backbone of India’s DPI architecture. These systems have enabled secure identity verification, seamless digital payments, paperless documentation and consent-based data sharing at scale.
According to officials, India’s DPI model offers a cost-effective and interoperable framework that can be adapted to different national contexts. By leveraging open digital platforms, Indonesia aims to improve access to banking, healthcare, education and government services while accelerating the growth of its digital economy.
The development underscores India’s emergence as a global leader in digital innovation. As more countries explore India’s technology stack, the country’s Digital Public Infrastructure is increasingly being recognised as a scalable model for inclusive digital growth, governance and economic development.
