Tuberculosis (TB) remains one of the most deadly infectious diseases worldwide, with accurate notification playing a critical role in its control. This chapter explores the importance of TB notification in public health, focusing on international guidelines from the World Health Organization (WHO) and their implementation in high burden of TB, such as Indonesia. Several factors associated with TB notification, such as patient demographics, healthcare provider characteristics, and notification-system challenges, are discussed.

Finally, it provides policy recommendations for enhancing TB notification, emphasizing private-public partnerships and regulatory reforms.
