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.
Closed to all investment
KBLI 11031 appears on the list of business activities closed to investment under Pres. Reg. 10/2021. Neither domestic nor foreign capital may operate in this activity. The specific prohibited activities are listed below.
Prohibited activities
1- Malt beverage industry
Beverage manufacturing-specific guidance
Sector context that applies to KBLI 11031 beyond the generic OSS process. Verify with the relevant ministry before committing capital.
- ·Alcoholic beverages (KBLI 1101–1103) carry restrictions on foreign equity and require NPPBKC excise license.
- ·Non-alcoholic and bottled water generally open to PMA up to 100% with BPOM registration.

What this means for foreign investors
An honest read of the situation, plus the structures that work in practice. We've handled all of these — book a call to walk through your specific plan.
You can't operate this activity in Indonesia — neither as a foreigner nor a local.
This KBLI is on Pres. Reg. 10/2021's list of closed business activities. The activity is prohibited entirely; even Indonesian-owned entities cannot register for it. There is no PMA, joint-venture, or partnership structure that unlocks this code. Your option is to choose a different activity.
Pivot to an adjacent open KBLI
Most closed activities have neighbours that solve a similar customer problem and accept full PMA. We help you map the closest open code that still fits your commercial thesis.
Off-take / commercial partnership
You can buy from, sell to, or service an Indonesian-owned operator without taking equity. We draft and structure the commercial framework so it stands up to scrutiny.
These siblings are usable by a foreign-owned PT PMA — they have a Large-scale licensing matrix and aren't on a restricted list. Each has its own context badge so you can pick by trade-off.
What is KBLI 11031?
A plain-English explanation of this classification and the businesses it covers.
KBLI 11031 (Industri Minuman Beralkohol Hasil Fermentasi Malt ) is the 5-digit Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification code for fermented alcoholic beverage industry from malt. It sits within Manufacturing Industry under the subgroup The Alcoholic Beverage Industry from Malt Fermentation and the Malt Industry (major group 11) in the official KBLI 2020 taxonomy maintained by Statistics Indonesia (BPS).
Who needs KBLI 11031?
Any Indonesian or foreign-owned entity that intends to operate in fermented alcoholic beverage industry from malt 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.
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.
Reorganised in KBLI 2025
KBLI 11031 does not carry the same number forward into KBLI 2025 — the activity has been reclassified, but the precise mapping isn't recorded in our database yet.
- ·For current operations, KBLI 11031 remains valid — OSS still uses KBLI 2020 for all business registrations.
- ·The KBLI 2025 successor codes are listed in the official BPS transition document below; check for the activity-specific mapping when planning future structures.
- ·Once OSS announces the KBLI 2025 cutover, existing entities will need to update their primary KBLI to the relevant successor — typically straightforward.
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.

The data below is the official OSS regulatory profile for this code. It applies to qualifying Indonesian operators (or to your operating partner). Foreign investors won't file these directly, but it's useful context when structuring a partnership or commercial arrangement.
Foreign investors: the licensing matrix below is for context only — direct PMA registration isn't possible for this code. See pathways above for what actually works.
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.

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 10 candidate permits across 1 regulator; most operations only need a handful. Emerhub maps your operation to the exact set, files them, and tracks renewals.

Can foreign investors operate under KBLI 11031?

What is the risk level of KBLI 11031?
KBLI 11031's risk levels per business scale: Micro High, Small High, Medium High, Large High. Foreign-owned entities (PT PMA) must register at the Large scale.
What licenses does KBLI 11031 require?
What is the minimum capital for a PT PMA under KBLI 11031?
Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 11031 is not viable for foreign-owned entities, so neither BKPM Reg. 5/2025's paid-up minimum nor any sector-specific capital floor enters the picture. The structural barrier comes first.
How long does it take to register a business under KBLI 11031?
Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 11031 is not viable for foreign-owned entities, so the 4-8 week PT PMA setup timeline doesn't apply. Move to a sibling code with a Large-scale matrix or a different structure.
Is KBLI 11031 eligible for Indonesian tax incentives?
Not on the Tax Holiday or Tax Allowance priority lists. KBLI 11031 businesses pay the standard 22% PPh Badan; Super Tax Deduction (300% R&D / 200% vocational training) may still apply for qualifying expenses.
Which authority issues the KBLI 11031 license?
Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 11031 is not viable for foreign-owned entities, so OSS doesn't designate a PMA issuing authority. Smaller-scale registrations (Micro / Small) for Indonesian operators are typically issued at the Regency / City level.
What other permits beyond the NIB does KBLI 11031 need?
Beyond the NIB, KBLI 11031 carries 10 PB UMKU permits across 1 sector regulator: Pharmaceuticals (10). Most operations only need 2-4 of these — the relevant set depends on which specific activities you actually perform; Emerhub maps the right subset before filing.
