Compliance requirements for foreign investors

Once an investor has successfully established a local presence in Indonesia, they are required to perform ongoing compliance measures of different forms which will vary depending on the type of presence (i.e. Foreign Investment Company or Representative Office), on the satisfaction of certain conditions and on their specific business activities.

   
The following are the most common compliance measures that must be followed by any presence in Indonesia. We strongly recommend complying with these requirements to avoid related penalties.

  
Each compliance measure has its own form, deadlines, and platform/authority for filing. While most compliance measures are now submitted electronically via dedicated platforms, some are still submitted manually via email or certified mail. In both cases, the respective submission timeline must be considered.
The table below provides an overview of the compliance measures applicable to foreign investors (the list is not exhaustive).
