TVRI (also referred to as TVRI Nasional, TVRI Siaran Nasional, or Kanal 1 TVRI Nasional), formerly known as TVRI Jakarta Central Station (Indonesian: TVRI Stasiun Pusat Jakarta) is the main national public television channel owned by LPP Televisi Republik Indonesia (TVRI). The channel began broadcasting on 24 August 1962, making it the first television station in Indonesia. The channel was also the only television channel in Indonesia until 1989, when Programa Dua TVRI (now TVRI Jakarta) in Jakarta broadcast separately from TVRI and private television stations began broadcasting.

TVRI is currently available on terrestrial, satellite, and most of pay television providers throughout the country, as well as on TVRI Klik streaming service. Prior to digital switchover in 2022, the channel is networked with regional TVRI stations on analog broadcasts (except Special Capital Region of Jakarta and its surroundings).
