Rainy greetings fellow forum members, the sky is as dull as Indonesian postal service with barcode issue
LPU barcode sticker and the NEW LC barcode sticker have been irritating issue for both Indonesian postcrossers and international postcrossers that have received cards from Indonesia
Here are few examples :

I’m sure those who have Indonesian card might have the barcode on their cards
Unlike USPS sticker that’s easy to peel off, these LPU stickers are nasty enough to peel and they’re often put on weird places. On the stamps, in the center of the card’s picture & even covering the ID numbers etc
Fellow Indonesian postcrossers have been trying to seek improvement from our postal service for quite a long time by asking postal workers not to put them in weird places, making the sticker smaller into QR code and changing the type of sticker that’s easy to peel off. However our complaints still have 0 results
This is why, I am wondering if any of forum members had experience with our annoying Indonesian LPU stickers.
If you have, we need your help by :
- Posting on this thread with pictures of your Indonesian cards that got LPU barcode and write complain
- or if you have social media like Instagram you could directly send DM to Pos Indonesia IG account here
With international complaints, I hope our postal service will take this issue more seriously , the complaints gathered can be forwarded to higher ups in POS Indonesia
On the side note, if anyone draws an Indonesian address from official site or sending to Indonesia forum activities, doing this will help your card saved from LPU barcode
( I know this is an extra effort ) picture above from @dj , I hope Indonesian postcrossers will protect their outgoing cards as well like that
Or you can simply put empty space around 6x2 cm for the label with hope that our postal service will put the label there, no guarantee tho
Thank you everyone who are willing to help us in this 'fight’
P.S : I wonder if there are other postal service other than Pos Indonesia that have this same issue
