Indonesian military ranks

Exception exists, however, in the ranks of the service members of the Indonesian Marine Corps.

While Indonesian Marine Corps is a branch of the Navy, the rank titles of the Marine Corps are the same as those of the Army, but it still uses the Navy's style insignia (for lower-ranking enlisted men, blue replaces the red colour).

High-rank NCOs use wavy bars, NCOs use yellow chevrons, high-rank enlisted men use red chevrons (blue for Navy and Marine Corps) and lower-rank enlisted men use red bars (blue for Navy and Marine Corps).

The following ranks were used at the beginning of the establishment of the Tentara Keamanan Rakyat (TKR, People's Security Army) in late 1945, the basis of the present day Indonesian National Armed Forces.

(The same Army ranks were also used by the nascent Indonesian Marine Corps which was established at the same time.)

In 2000, with the Indonesian National Police having regained its independence from the armed forces, the TNI rank system ceased to be used.

The following are the rank insignia for commissioned officers for the army, navy and air force respectively.
