§ 01

Foreign investment rules

Indonesia's BUPM (Investment Business Fields) regulation places this code into one of five tracks. The track determines whether a foreign investor (PMA) can operate in this activity at all, and under what conditions.

Status · open

Fully open to foreign investment

KBLI 06202 is not on Indonesia's closed, conditional, SME-reserved or partnership-required schedules. A foreign investor may incorporate a PT PMA with up to 100% foreign ownership and operate in this activity directly.

This KBLI is not listed in any restricted, closed, SME-reserved or partnership-required schedule under Pres. Reg. 10/2021 (as amended). A 100% foreign-owned PT PMA may operate in this activity, subject to the licensing requirements shown below. BKPM's default minimum capital is IDR 2.5 billion paid-up with IDR 10 billion+ total investment commitment per KBLI realised over time, but sector regulators (OJK, ESDM, BPOM, Kominfo, etc.) can set higher minimums for specific activities — we confirm the actual figure before incorporation.

§ 05

Auxiliary permits (PB UMKU)

PB UMKU permits sit on top of the main NIB and Sertifikat Standar — each is issued by a different ministry, and only when a specific operational activity is performed. This KBLI carries 3 candidate permits across 2 regulators; most operations only need a handful. Emerhub maps your operation to the exact set, files them, and tracks renewals.

Energy & Mineral Resources

2 permits

Ministry of Energy & Mineral Resources (ESDM). Applies to mining, oil & gas extraction, power generation, fuel distribution, and gas pipeline infrastructure. Most permits attach to a specific site or lifecycle phase (exploration, production, decommissioning) rather than the company as a whole.

Nuclear & Radiation Safety

1 permit

BAPETEN (Nuclear Energy Regulatory Agency). Applies whenever ionizing radiation sources are involved — radiology, radiotherapy, industrial NDT, certain manufacturing inputs. BAPETEN licenses the operator, the facility, and each radiation source separately.
