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 10732 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.
§ 02

Halal certification

Indonesia requires BPJPH Halal certification for an expanding range of consumer-product categories. This KBLI's activities fall in scope — see what's required and when.

BPJPH certification required

Halal certification is mandatory for food & beverage products.

Enforceable since October 2024

Under UU 33/2014, every food and beverage product entering the Indonesian market must carry a BPJPH Halal certificate. The scope covers raw materials, processing aids, packaging in contact with the product, and the full supply chain. We coordinate the LPPOM-MUI audit and BPJPH filing — typically a 4-6 month process for first-time certification.

  • 01

    Audit & gap analysis

    Review your formulation, supply chain, and facility against BPJPH criteria. Identify ingredients or processes that need swapping.

  • 02

    LPH inspection

    An accredited Halal Inspection Body (LPPOM-MUI is the largest) audits the facility and reviews documentation.

  • 03

    BPJPH issuance

    The Halal certificate is issued under the BPJPH register and the Halal label can be applied to packaging.

Halal certification is a core Emerhub service. We've handled BPJPH projects for foreign-brand food, cosmetics, and pharma operators across Indonesia — including supply-chain re-sourcing where needed. Bundle it with your PT PMA setup and we coordinate both timelines.

How we handle your KBLI 10732 setup

Emerhub is a corporate-services provider in Indonesia. We do the legal and regulatory legwork for foreign investors so you can focus on the business itself. Here's what the engagement looks like.

  1. 1

    Confirm the optimal structure for your business

    2–3 business days

    We confirm KBLI 10732 is the right primary code for your business, advise on secondary codes you may also need, and finalize the holding structure with you before any filing.

    What we need from you
    • Founders' passport copies and proof of residence
    • Intended share split and board composition
  2. 2

    Incorporate your PT PMA

    7–10 business days

    We draft the Articles of Association before a notary, register the entity with the Ministry of Law & Human Rights (Kemenkumham), and obtain the company's tax ID (NPWP). Under BKPM Reg. 5/2025, paid-up capital is IDR 2.5 billion (~USD 160K) — the cash actually deposited at incorporation. The IDR 10 billion+ figure many sources still cite is the total investment commitment per KBLI, realised over time via your LKPM reports.

    What we need from you
    • Powers of attorney (we prepare; you sign and notarize)
    • Director / commissioner appointment letters
    • Initial capital deposit confirmation
  3. 3

    We obtain your NIB

    1–2 business days

    We file the OSS application with KBLI 10732 as your primary business activity, complete the risk-based assessment, and collect the NIB (Business Identification Number) for you — typically within hours of submission. You don't need to touch the OSS portal.

    What we need from you
    • Office address (virtual office acceptable for many KBLIs; we can arrange one)
  4. 4

    Secure your full Operating License (Izin)

    7+ business days

    NIB is issued for the preparation stage. Commercial operation requires a full Operating License (Izin) issued by the competent ministry after a substantive review of the operator's capability, facility, and compliance. Operating with NIB alone exposes the entity to penalties, blacklisting, and contract invalidation. We prepare the application bundle, liaise with the competent ministry, and chase issuance through to the certificate. Statutory turnaround: 7 business days — real-world timing typically runs longer when site inspections or additional clarifications are requested.

    What we need from you
    • Technical documentation specific to your operation
    • Appointment of a Penanggung Jawab Teknis (PJT — technical responsible person)
  5. 5

    Hand-off to ongoing compliance

    Ongoing

    Post-launch we run your monthly tax filings, quarterly LKPM (Investment Activity Reports), annual general meeting (RUPS), and any sector-specific reporting. You get a single point of contact and a monthly compliance digest — no Indonesian-language paperwork on your desk.

§ 03

What is KBLI 10732?

A plain-English explanation of this classification and the businesses it covers.

KBLI 10732 (Industri Makanan Dari Cokelat Dan Kembang Gula dari Coklat) is the 5-digit Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification code for chocolate and sugar confectionery industry. It sits within Manufacturing Industry under the subgroup Industries of Cocoa, Chocolate, and Sugar Confectionery (major group 10) in the official KBLI 2020 taxonomy maintained by Statistics Indonesia (BPS).

This group includes businesses engaged in the production of various food items primarily made from chocolate, such as chocolate, chocolate compound, chocolate couverture, imitation chocolate, white chocolate, chocolate confections, spreads, and fillings based on cocoa. It also includes the beverage industry producing chocolate in both powder and liquid forms.

Who needs KBLI 10732?

Any Indonesian or foreign-owned entity that intends to operate in chocolate and sugar confectionery industry as a primary or secondary business activity must select this code on its NIB (Business Identification Number). The selected code determines the licensing instruments required, the issuing authority, and the ongoing compliance obligations.

Why does the code matter?

Indonesia's OSS Risk-Based Approach uses the KBLI code to determine three things: (1) whether foreign investment is permitted and at what cap, (2) the risk-based licensing instruments required, and (3) the authority that issues each instrument. Choosing the wrong code can delay or invalidate your license.

§ 05

Under the upcoming KBLI 2025

Indonesia's BPS published the new KBLI 2025 taxonomy in early 2025. OSS, BKPM and the operating ministries have not yet adopted it — KBLI 2020 remains the active standard for business registration. This is what's coming for this specific code.

Carried forward into KBLI 2025

KBLI 10732 retains the same code number and scope in the new taxonomy. The activity description, hierarchy, and intended use of the code are preserved.

  • ·Continue using 10732 for current registrations under KBLI 2020.
  • ·When OSS adopts KBLI 2025 (timing not yet announced), no migration is required for this code.
  • ·Risk level, permits, and authority routing shown above remain in effect under both taxonomies.

When OSS adopts KBLI 2025, we'll migrate your existing entity to the appropriate successor code as part of ongoing compliance — no action needed on your end now.

§ 02

Risk level by business scale

Indonesia's OSS Risk-Based Approach assigns a separate risk level for each of the four business scales. The licensing instruments required (NIB, Standard Certificate, Operating License) are determined by the risk level. Foreign-owned entities (PT PMA) must register at the Large scale, so the rightmost column applies to most foreign investors.

01

Micro

Usaha Mikro
≤ IDR 2 B turnover
Medium-Low risk
NIB + self-declared Standard Certificate before invoicing.
02

Small

Usaha Kecil
IDR 2 – 15 B
Medium-Low risk
NIB + self-declared Standard Certificate before invoicing.

04

PMA scale
Usaha Besar

NIB + full Operating License (Izin) before invoicing.
What does each risk level require to operate?
Low. NIB alone is sufficient for both preparation and commercial operation. Issued instantly via OSS.
Medium-Low. NIB enables preparation only. Commercial operation requires a self-declared Sertifikat Standar (Standard Certificate). Operating with NIB alone is not legally compliant.
Medium-High. NIB enables preparation only. Commercial operation requires a Sertifikat Standar verified by the competent ministry — typically with a site or document inspection.
High. NIB enables preparation only. Commercial operation requires a full Operating License (Izin) issued by the competent ministry after substantive review.
Beyond OSS, sector-specific permits commonly apply on top — e.g. SBU for construction, BPOM for food/cosmetics/medicines, OJK for financial services, IUP for mining, PSE for digital services. See the industry-specific guidance below for what applies to this KBLI.
