The Commander of the Marine Corps reports directly to the Commander of the Indonesian National Armed Forces. The Commander also holds the highest rank within the Marine Corps, which is Lieutenant General. Assisting the Commander of the Marine Corps is the Deputy Commander of the Marine Corps, who holds the rank of two-star marine general.
The position was formerly known as Commandant of the Marine Corps (Indonesian: Komandan Korps Marinir, abbreviated as Dankormar), with the position being held by a Marine Major General, which was previously the highest rank within the Marine Corps. However, promotion to higher ranks was possible if appointed to positions within the Navy or the National Armed Forces Headquarters requiring a three-star rank or higher. The nomenclature was officially changed to Panglima Korps Marinir on 6 August 2025 and was inaugurated on 10 August, with the incumbent Commandant, Endi Supardi, promoted to a lieutenant general.[2]
