KBLI 47722's risk levels per business scale: Micro Medium-Low, Small Medium-Low, Medium Medium-Low, Large Medium-Low. Foreign-owned entities (PT PMA) must register at the Large scale.

What licenses does KBLI 47722 require?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 47722 is not viable for foreign-owned entities (closed, SME-reserved, domestic-only, or no Large-scale licensing matrix in OSS RBA, depending on the case). Foreign investors should pick a related KBLI that is open at the Large scale.

What is the minimum capital for a PT PMA under KBLI 47722?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 47722 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 47722?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 47722 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.

Which authority issues the KBLI 47722 license?

What other permits beyond the NIB does KBLI 47722 need?

Beyond the NIB, no specific auxiliary permits (PB UMKU) are recorded for KBLI 47722. Sector-specific obligations may still apply — verify with the relevant ministry.

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.

This activity is allocated to Indonesian SMEs and cooperatives.

PT PMA is not permitted for this KBLI. The activity is reserved for cooperatives and Indonesian micro/small/medium enterprises (UMKM). The pathway for foreign investors is to operate a different value-chain step (e.g. processing or distribution rather than the reserved primary activity), or to support local SMEs as an off-taker / brand owner / financier.

Pathways that work

Move to a different value-chain step
The cleanest path: operate a related but open KBLI. For example, foreign investors blocked from primary commodity production frequently succeed with the processing, distribution, branding, or export-trade codes upstream or downstream of the restricted activity.
Special Economic Zone (KEK) or Free Trade Zone (Batam)
Several restricted codes have higher or full PMA caps inside designated KEK zones (Sanur Health, Lido, Mandalika) or the Batam Free Trade Zone — manufacturing, logistics, and IT services especially. The IUK regime under BP Batam relaxes ownership rules selectively in exchange for export orientation. We assess whether your operation can benefit. See the for the requirements.
SME partnership / off-take model
You can't hold the SME licence yourself, but you can build a contractual ecosystem with cooperatives or UMKM partners — supplying them with capital, IP, brand, distribution, or technology. We structure these arrangements so they stay defensible and commercially aligned.

PMA-viable codes in the same area

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.

Restricted KBLIs need a tailored structure. Book a call and we'll map the right entity, partner, and licensing path for your specific business.
