KBLI 21014: Pharmaceutical Industry for Animals

KBLI 21014: Pharmaceutical Industry for Animals · Open to PMA

§ 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

Open under BUPM (subject to sector rules)

KBLI 21014 is not on Indonesia's closed, conditional, SME-reserved, or partnership-required schedules under BUPM (Pres. Reg. 10/2021). A foreign investor can incorporate a PT PMA under this code, but sector regulators (PSE/Kominfo, BPOM, OJK, Kemenkes, Permendag, ESDM) almost always add licensing and capital requirements on top — the practical answer depends on your specific business model.

This KBLI is open under BUPM (Pres. Reg. 10/2021) — it's not on any restricted, closed, SME-reserved, or partnership-required schedule. That's the BUPM verdict only, not a complete sector-readiness check: sector regulators almost always add requirements on top (PSE/Kominfo for digital platforms, BPOM for food and cosmetics, OJK for financial, Kemenkes for healthcare, Permendag for retail, ESDM for energy). BKPM's default capital floor is IDR 2.5 billion paid-up with IDR 10 billion+ total investment commitment per KBLI, but sector regulators frequently set higher minimums for specific activities. The practical answer depends on your business model — confirm with our team before committing capital.

Tax incentives

Foreign-investor tax benefits available for this KBLI under PMK 130/2020 (Tax Holiday) and PP 78/2019 (Tax Allowance). Both require approval — see the linked guide for the application path.

Eligible for Tax Allowance

30% reduction of taxable net income over 6 years, accelerated depreciation, 10-year loss carryforward. Mutually exclusive with Tax Holiday.

Note. Pharmaceutical manufacturing (KBLI 21xxx) is on the PP 78/2019 Tax Allowance priority list.

Sector capital requirement

Higher minimum capital required by BPOM / Kemenkes

Pharmaceutical manufacturing (CPOB facilities)

Required paid-up

No fixed minimum, but GMP-compliant facility build typically IDR 50-100 billion+

Regulation

PMK 26/2018 (Pelayanan Perizinan Berusaha Terintegrasi Sektor Kesehatan)

Note. CPOB certification is the binding gate, not a flat capital number — meaningful capex needed for clean-room facility build.

BKPM Reg. 5/2025's default is IDR 2.5 billion paid-up + IDR 10 billion commitment per KBLI. The figure above is the binding override for this activity — the higher number wins.

This KBLI carries 2 candidate permits across 1 regulator; most operations only need a handful. Emerhub maps your operation to the exact set, files them, and tracks renewals.

Veterinary & Animal Medicine

2 permits

Ministry of Agriculture. Applies if you produce, import, distribute, or sell animal medicines, vaccines, or feed; if you breed livestock; or if you operate a veterinary practice. A "veterinary control number" (NKV) is the entry-point permit for animal-product processors.

Can foreign investors operate under KBLI 21014?

KBLI 21014 is open to PT PMA under BUPM (Pres. Reg. 10/2021) — it is not on the closed, conditional, SME-reserved, or partnership-required schedules. That is the BUPM verdict only: sector regulators (PSE/Kominfo for digital platforms, BPOM for food and cosmetics, OJK for financial, Kemenkes for healthcare, Permendag for retail, ESDM for energy) commonly add licensing and capital requirements on top depending on the specific business model. Confirm the practical setup with our team before committing capital.

What licenses does KBLI 21014 require?

NIB + verified Standard Certificate (Sertifikat Standar Terverifikasi). KBLI 21014 is Medium-High risk at Large scale, so NIB is issued first, but the Standard Certificate becomes effective only after the issuing ministry verifies compliance (typically through a document review or site audit). 2 sector-specific PB UMKU permits also apply depending on the exact activity. See the requirements summary at the top of the page.

What is the minimum capital for a PT PMA under KBLI 21014?

Sector regulator override: No fixed minimum, but GMP-compliant facility build typically IDR 50-100 billion+ required by BPOM / Kemenkes under PMK 26/2018 (Pelayanan Perizinan Berusaha Terintegrasi Sektor Kesehatan). This is higher than BKPM Reg. 5/2025's default IDR 2.5 billion paid-up; the higher number wins.

PT PMA setup typically takes 4-8 weeks: AHU registration (1-2 weeks), NIB issuance via OSS (immediate to 1 week), bank account opening (2-4 weeks). The licensing cycle for KBLI 21014 specifically takes 7 days at the Large business scale.

Beyond the NIB, KBLI 21014 carries 2 PB UMKU permits across 1 sector regulator: Veterinary & Animal Medicine (2). 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.
