Whether Indonesia is the right answer is a question about your ownership, management and market — not about the jurisdiction in isolation.
In Indonesia this is handled through Ministry of Communication and Digital Affairs and/or other competent Indonesian digital, data and sector authorities, with licensed local professionals engaged where the matter requires them.
What this delivers
- Commercially meaningful Indonesia scope
- PT PMA treated correctly
- Foreign ownership and KBLI issues recognised
- Risk-based licensing requirements presented clearly and proportionately
- No nominee or artificial ownership arrangements
What we will need
- Identity and address documents
- Parent-company/corporate documents
- Shareholder/controller information
- Business/investment plan where applicable
- Financial/source-of-funds evidence
- Tax information
- OSS/KBLI, immigration, technology or regulator-specific evidence
How it works

- Assess tax/immigration/licensing requirements
- Issue tailored documents
- Coordinate Indonesian authority/professional work
- Manage queries
- Completion and practical next steps
