Key facts for KBLI 60202
The essentials a foreign investor needs to know before reading the rest of this page.
100% foreign ownership permitted at class level — with sub-activity carve-outs KBLI 60202 is open to PT PMA, but Pres. Reg. 10/2021 carves out 1 specific sub-activity that is restricted, capped, or reserved for Indonesian capital. For example, "Subscription Broadcasting Institution (LPB)" is restricted. Scope your business plan to the open portion before incorporation.
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.
High-risk activity — requires NIB + full Operating License (Izin) to operate commercially. NIB alone enables only the preparation stage; an Operating License must be obtained before invoicing or production starts.
Statutory licensing turnaround: 29 days once we submit the application — on top of the 2–3 weeks for PT PMA incorporation. We coordinate the full sequence end-to-end.
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 10 sector-specific obligations. We file these on your behalf as part of monthly compliance — you stay out of the OSS portal entirely.

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.
Open to foreign investment, with carve-outs
KBLI 60202 is open as a class — a 100% foreign-owned PT PMA can be incorporated under this code — but Pres. Reg. 10/2021 carves out 1 specific sub-activity that are off-limits or restricted for foreign capital. The rest of the activity remains open to PMA. The carved-out items are listed below; any of them needs to be either avoided, served via an Indonesian operator, or structured around case-by-case.
Conditional sub-activities
1- Subscription Broadcasting Institution (LPB)20% max foreign100% Domestic capital is required for establishment, and a maximum of 20% Foreign capital is allowed for business expansion or development.

Incorporate your PT PMA
7–10 business daysWe draft the Articles of Association before a notary, register the entity with the Ministry of Law & Human Rights (Kemenkumham), and obtain the company's tax ID (NPWP). 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.

- Initial capital deposit confirmation

Secure your full Operating License (Izin)
29+ business daysNIB is issued for the preparation stage. Commercial operation requires a full Operating License (Izin) issued by the competent ministry after a substantive review of the operator's capability, facility, and compliance. Operating with NIB alone exposes the entity to penalties, blacklisting, and contract invalidation. We prepare the application bundle, liaise with the competent ministry, and chase issuance through to the certificate. Statutory turnaround: 29 business days — 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 60202?
A plain-English explanation of this classification and the businesses it covers.
KBLI 60202 (Aktivitas Penyiaran dan Pemrograman Televisi Oleh Swasta) is the 5-digit Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification code for private television broadcasting and programming activities. It sits within Publishing, Broadcasting, Content Production and Distribution under the subgroup Television Broadcasting and Programming Activities (major group 60) in the official KBLI 2020 taxonomy maintained by Statistics Indonesia (BPS).
Who needs KBLI 60202?
Any Indonesian or foreign-owned entity that intends to operate in private television broadcasting and programming activities 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.
Broadcasting-specific guidance
Sector context that applies to KBLI 60202 beyond the generic OSS process. Verify with the relevant ministry before committing capital.
- ·TV and radio broadcasting requires IPP (Izin Penyelenggaraan Penyiaran) from Kominfo.
- ·Foreign equity in broadcasting is restricted (typically 20% maximum).
- ·Streaming/OTT platforms regulated separately under PSE Kominfo registration.
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 60202 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 60202 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.
