50221River and Lake Transportation for General Goods and/or Animals

KBLI 50221 (River and Lake Transport for General Goods and/or Animals) is the 5-digit Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification code for river and lake transportation for general goods and/or animals. It sits within the Transportation and Warehousing category in the official KBLI 2020 taxonomy maintained by Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS).

Foreign ownership is capped at 49% under Pres. Reg. 10/2021. The remaining 51% must be held by Indonesian nationals or Indonesian-owned entities. Sector regulators may add licensing or capital requirements on top depending on the specific activity — our team structures the JV and confirms the licensing stack.

KBLI 50221's risk levels per business scale: Micro Medium-High, Small Medium-High, Medium Medium-High, Large Medium-High. Foreign-owned entities (PT PMA) must register at the Large scale.

NIB + verified Standard Certificate (Sertifikat Standar Terverifikasi). KBLI 50221 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). To obtain the licensing instrument, OSS lists 5 application requirements (persyaratan). The first few: Preliminary approval for ship procurement according to the operational area for business entities that do…; Documents required for the seaworthiness of permanent or temporary vessels; Cross-service compliance, and 2 more — see the full list with supporting documents in the Licensing detail section. Plus one basic requirement (KKPR) at the class level.

BKPM Reg. 5/2025's default floor is IDR 2.5 billion paid-up capital at incorporation + IDR 10 billion+ total investment commitment per KBLI registered (realised over time and reported quarterly via LKPM). Sector regulators (OJK for financial, ESDM for energy, Kemenkes for healthcare, BPOM for food and cosmetics, Permendag for retail, Kominfo for digital platforms) often set higher minimums for specific activities. The binding figure depends on what you actually plan to operate, so confirm with our team before committing capital. See the investment status block for the BUPM verdict and ownership context.

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 50221 specifically takes 7 days at the Large business scale.

Not on the Tax Holiday or Tax Allowance priority lists. KBLI 50221 businesses pay the standard 22% PPh Badan; Super Tax Deduction (300% R&D / 200% vocational training) may still apply for qualifying expenses.

Authority depends on the investor profile. For PMA: Regent/Mayor. For domestic SME scale: typically Governor (for Provincial scope) or Regent/Mayor (Regency/City scope). See the licensing detail section for the full per-permit authority routing.

Beyond the NIB, no specific auxiliary permits (PB UMKU) are recorded for KBLI 50221. Sector-specific obligations may still apply — verify with the relevant ministry.
