KBLI 56103 (Kedai Makanan) is the 5-digit Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification code for food stall" or "eatery. It sits within the Accommodation and Food Service Activities category in the official KBLI 2020 taxonomy maintained by Badan Pusat Statistik (BPS).

Can foreign investors operate under KBLI 56103?

Not in practice. KBLI 56103 is not on Pres. Reg. 10/2021's closed list, but OSS RBA only defines licensing rules at the Micro and Small business scales for this activity — there is no Large-scale matrix. Foreign-owned PT PMA must register at the Large scale, so this code isn't structurally available to foreign investors. PT lokal (100% Indonesian-owned) at the Micro / Small scale can operate freely.

What is the risk level of KBLI 56103?

KBLI 56103 has no Large-scale licensing matrix in OSS — it's structured for Micro and Small business scales only. PT PMA cannot register under this code as a result.

What licenses does KBLI 56103 require?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 56103 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 56103?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 56103 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 56103?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 56103 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 56103 eligible for Indonesian tax incentives?

Not on the Tax Holiday or Tax Allowance priority lists. KBLI 56103 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 56103 license?

Not applicable to PT PMA — KBLI 56103 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 56103 need?

Beyond the NIB, KBLI 56103 carries 2 PB UMKU permits across 1 sector regulator: Health & Medical Devices (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.

What KBLI codes are similar to 56103?

KBLIs in the same subgroup 5610: 56101 (Restaurant); 56102 (Eatery or Food Stall); 56104 (Mobile Food Provision/Temporary Place); 56109 (Restaurant and other mobile food services). These are closely related activities — see the related-codes section below for full list.

KBLI 56103: Food Stall" or "Eatery

§ 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 · No foreign ownership

Reserved for small Indonesian operators

KBLI 56103 is set up for warungs, smallholders, individual practitioners and similar small businesses — Indonesia's licensing rules only define micro and small business sizes for it. Foreign-owned companies have to register at the Large business size, so even though this code isn't on the official "closed" list, foreign ownership isn't possible in practice. Pick a related KBLI that covers larger operations, or set up a partnership with an Indonesian operator who already holds the licence.

This activity is reserved for small Indonesian operators — think warungs, food stalls, smallholders, individual practitioners. KBLI 56103 only has licensing rules defined for micro and small business sizes. Foreign-owned companies have to register at the Large business size, so this code isn't available to them even though it's not on the "closed" list. Pick a related KBLI that covers larger operations, or ask us about partnering with an Indonesian operator who already holds the licence.

Food & beverage service-specific guidance

Sector context that applies to KBLI 56103 beyond the generic OSS process. Verify with the relevant ministry before committing capital.

Lead regulator

Ministry of Tourism & Creative Economy (Kemenparekraf) / Health agencies

·Restaurants are open to PMA but smaller-scale food stalls (warung) are reserved for SMEs.
·Hygiene & sanitation certification (SLS), halal certification, and TDUP common requirements.
·Alcohol-serving establishments require additional municipal permits.

§ 03

Halal certification

Indonesia requires BPJPH Halal certification for an expanding range of consumer-product categories. This KBLI's activities fall in scope — see what's required and when.

BPJPH certification recommended

Most foreign-owned F&B brands in Indonesia get Halal-certified.

Voluntary but commercially expected

Halal certification isn't legally mandatory for restaurants yet — but in practice, foreign brands targeting modern trade, malls, hotels, or franchise channels almost always obtain it. Without certification, you'll struggle to land in shopping centres and risk consumer pushback in any market outside Bali. We handle the BPJPH application, kitchen audit, and supply-chain documentation.

01
Audit & gap analysis
Review your formulation, supply chain, and facility against BPJPH criteria. Identify ingredients or processes that need swapping.
02
LPH inspection
An accredited Halal Inspection Body (LPPOM-MUI is the largest) audits the facility and reviews documentation.
03
BPJPH issuance
The Halal certificate is issued under the BPJPH register and the Halal label can be applied to packaging.

Halal certification is a core Emerhub service. We've handled BPJPH projects for foreign-brand food, cosmetics, and pharma operators across Indonesia — including supply-chain re-sourcing where needed. Bundle it with your PT PMA setup and we coordinate both timelines.

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.

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.

Reference data: how this KBLI is regulated

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.

What's required to operate

NIB

Preparation only — additional permit needed below

Standard Certificate (Self-declared)

Important: NIB 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.

Application requirements

Documents and capabilities you must demonstrate at registration

No specific application requirements at this scale.

Ongoing obligations

Compliance and reporting duties throughout operation

01Have a Food Sanitation Hygiene Label (HSP) for Micro Scale, Sanitation Hygiene Feasibility Certificate (SLHS) for Small Scale.
02Submitting activity reports regularly
03Submit periodic standard implementation documents.

Issuing authority

The authority that issues the license depends on your situation.

Authority	Applies when
Regent/Mayor	All
Minister/Head of Agency	Foreign Investment

§ 05

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 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.

Health & Medical Devices

2 permits

Ministry of Health (Kemenkes / BPOM). Applies to manufacturing, importing, distributing, or operating medical devices, hospitals, clinics, diagnostic services, and pharmacies. Most device permits are class-based (Class A/B/C/D); facility permits attach to the specific site.

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.
