Key facts for KBLI 28299
The essentials a foreign investor needs to know before reading the rest of this page.
100% foreign ownership permitted via PT PMA. KBLI 28299 is not on Indonesia's closed, conditional, SME-reserved or partnership-required schedules under Pres. Reg. 10/2021.
Default minimum paid-up capital: IDR 2.5 billion (~USD 160K) under BKPM Reg. 5/2025 (effective Oct 2025) — applies unless a sector regulator sets a higher figure for this activity. The often-cited IDR 10 billion is the total investment commitment per KBLI realised over time via quarterly LKPM reports, not required upfront.
Medium-low-risk activity — requires NIB + Standard Certificate (Self-Declared) to operate commercially. NIB alone enables only the preparation stage; a Standard Certificate must be obtained before invoicing or production starts.
Issuing authority for PMA: Minister/Head of Agency — this KBLI is routed centrally rather than to provincial / regency level.
Ongoing reporting: quarterly LKPM (Investment Activity Report) to BKPM plus 6 sector-specific obligations. We file these on your behalf as part of monthly compliance — you stay out of the OSS portal entirely.

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.

Secure your Standard Certificate (Self-Declared)
Per ministry scheduleNIB is issued for the preparation stage. To begin commercial operations, the operator must self-declare compliance with applicable standards via OSS, which generates the Sertifikat Standar. Operating commercially with NIB alone is not legally compliant at this risk level. We prepare the application bundle, liaise with the competent ministry, and chase issuance through to the certificate. Statutory turnaround: set by ministry — 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)

What is KBLI 28299?
A plain-English explanation of this classification and the businesses it covers.
KBLI 28299 (Industri Mesin Keperluan Khusus Lainnya) is the 5-digit Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification code for other specialized machinery industry. It sits within Manufacturing Industry under the subgroup The industry of Other Special-Purpose Machinery Manufacturing. (major group 28) in the official KBLI 2020 taxonomy maintained by Statistics Indonesia (BPS).
Who needs KBLI 28299?
Any Indonesian or foreign-owned entity that intends to operate in other specialized machinery 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.
Manufacturing-specific guidance
Sector context that applies to KBLI 28299 beyond the generic OSS process. Verify with the relevant ministry before committing capital.
- ·Industry data reporting via SIINas every 6 months.
- ·BPOM registration required for any food, drug, cosmetic, or medical device produced.
- ·Halal certification mandatory for most consumable products.
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 28299 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 28299 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.
Talk to a specialistRisk 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.
