How to setup business in Aceh


When a foreign investor or business wants to register a company in Indonesia, we advises business owners on the 3 types of legal entities in Indonesia: Local Company, Foreign Direct Investment Company and Representative/Branch Office.

Local Company (PT) Setup

A Local Company is structured as an entity that is 100% owned by a local. It requires a smaller capital and has lesser limitations and requirements to fulfill. Foreigners who wish to open a Local Company can start one through a Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) arrangement.

Foreign Owned Company (PT PMA) Setup

A foreign-owned limited liability company is a legal entity that can be fully owned by foreign companies or investors. However, the maximum foreign ownership is determined by the business sector and business activities. The restrictions are listed in Indonesia’s Positive Investment List.

Representative Office (Branch Office) Setup

A Representative Office is also commonly referred to as a branch office, foreign companies or investors can fully own a Representative Office. This setup works best for non-sales-related business activities (e.g.: setting up call centers, design houses, market research). It is also an interim solution for preparing the establishment of PT PMA.
