The Indonesia women's national football team () represents Indonesia in international women's football, and is managed by the Football Association of Indonesia (PSSI), the sport's governing body in the country.
The Indonesian women's national football team was founded in 1975 and has participated five times in the AFC Women's Asian Cup, achieving the fourth place position twice since their inaugural appearance in 1977, when the event was referred to as the AFC Women's Championship. The team took a break from the continental competition after their participation in 1989. Following the AFC's introduction of a qualification process starting from the 2006 edition, Indonesia successfully returned to the AFC Women's Asian Cup in 2022, having qualified the previous year, although they experienced their worst performance in the final tournament's history, losing all their matches and failing to score a single goal.
From July to October 2003, the team reached their highest ranking to date, securing the 58th position in the FIFA Women's World Ranking.
History
Early years The Indonesia women's national football team was established in 1975 by the Football Association of Indonesia (PSSI). Nevertheless, the team did not make its competitive debut until two years later, participating in the 1977 AFC Women's Championship, where they suffered a 0–5 defeat in their opening match against the Republic of China. Despite suffering a challenging loss in the first match of the tournament, Indonesia successfully progressed to the semifinals following a narrow 1–0 win over Japan in the second match. The sole goal of the game was netted by Lantang in the 20th minute, marking her as the first goal scorer for the Indonesian women's national team. At the conclusion of the tournament, Indonesia secured the fourth position, marking the highest achievement for the Indonesia women's national team in the Asian competition. This accomplishment was matched nine years later during the 1986 AFC Women's Championship.
Indonesia participated in the Asian Cup for the fourth time during the 1989 edition.The team was assigned to Group B, alongside Japan, Hong Kong, and Nepal. Despite being eliminated in the group stage, Indonesia achieved its largest victory in history by defeating Nepal 8–0 in this tournament on 22 December 1989, at Mong Kok Stadium in Hong Kong.
Modern era In 2021, Indonesia secured a place in the 2022 AFC Women's Asian Cup for the first time since 1989, marking a 33-year absence. However, during the final tournament, Indonesia was unable to win any matches, failing to score a single goal. Notably, one of the losses was a staggering 0–18 against Australia, which stands as the nation's most significant defeat in history.
On 20 February 2024, PSSI appointed Satoru Mochizuki as the new head coach of the national team. Previously, Mochizuki held the position of assistant coach for the Japan women's national football team from 2008 to 2012, during which he contributed to the team's triumph in the 2011 FIFA Women's World Cup. Indonesia's first match with Mochizuki was in a friendly match against Singapore on 28 May 2024 that ends in a huge 5–1 victory for the Garuda Pertiwi.
Under Mochizuki, the team participated in the annual 2024 AFF Women's Cup, which also served as the qualification for the 2025 ASEAN Women's Championship, Indonesia managed to win their first maiden trophy in history, by beating Cambodia 3–1 in the final. Then in the 2026 AFF Women's Cup, which also served as the qualification for the 2027 ASEAN Women's Championship, Indonesia beat Laos 5–0 in the final to become the first team to win back-to-back titles in the AFF Women's Cup.

Nicknames The Indonesia women's national football team has been known or nicknamed as the "Garuda Pertiwi". The name is derived from two words: "Garuda," which is taken from Indonesia's national emblem, Garuda Pancasila, and is also a nickname for the men's team; and "Pertiwi," which signifies Ibu Pertiwi (English: Mother Prithvi or Mother Earth), a national personification of Indonesia that symbolizes the concept of Tanah Air (English: land and water), representing the Indonesian motherland.
Colors Erspo is the national team's kit provider, a sponsorship that began in 2024 and is contracted to continue until at least 2026. Previously the team's kit was supplied by Nike and Mills. Indonesia also wears other apparel, only when they compete in international sports events such as the Asian Games and the SEA Games. In those events Indonesia wears Li-Ning, this is due to the Asian Games and SEA Games being multi-sports events all of whose contingents are under the Indonesian National Olympic Committee (NOC).
Home stadium
Indonesia plays its home matches at Gelora Sriwijaya Stadium in Palembang. They first established their base there when they hosted the 2018 AFF Women's Championship.
