§ 01

What is Permit for reclamation work activities?

Plain-English explanation of this sector permit and when a business needs it.

Permit for reclamation work activities is a Perizinan Berusaha Untuk Menunjang Kegiatan Usaha (PB UMKU) — a sector-specific business permit issued by Ministry of Transportation under Indonesia's Transportation regulatory regime. PB UMKU sit on top of the foundational NIB (Nomor Induk Berusaha): the NIB lets you exist as a business and operate a KBLI activity at its risk-based scale, while a PB UMKU authorises a specific regulated function, output, or facility within that activity.

Whether your business needs this permit depends on the specific KBLI activity you operate, the products or services you produce, and the scale of operations. The issuing ministry sets eligibility, application requirements, and validity terms — review the official OSS portal (oss.go.id) for the current procedure, or engage a licensed business-services provider to handle the filing end-to-end.
