Why You Need Professional Business Consulting in Indonesia
Indonesia’s dynamic economy is supported by sectors like tourism, manufacturing, real estate, and digital technology. Yet, to succeed, businesses must understand local laws, cultural nuances, and administrative processes.
A professional Indonesia business consultant helps bridge the gap between international business standards and Indonesia’s regulatory system. From obtaining permits to handling corporate legal documentation, expert guidance ensures you avoid unnecessary delays and penalties.
At The Bali Lawyer, we offer in-depth assistance to ensure your company is not only legally compliant but also strategically positioned for long-term growth.
Our Business Consulting Services in Indonesia
Our consulting services cover every aspect of setting up and running a successful business in Indonesia. Below is an overview of what The Bali Lawyer can assist you with:
1. Company Formation and Structuring
Starting a business in Indonesia requires choosing the right legal entity. Whether you’re establishing a PT PMA (foreign-owned company), local PT, or representative office, we provide step-by-step guidance to ensure your business structure aligns with your goals.
We handle all aspects of company registration, including:
Legal documentation and licensing
Name reservation and notarial deeds
Shareholder agreements and director appointments
Business identification numbers (NIB) and operational permits
Our goal is to ensure your company is registered efficiently and fully compliant with Indonesian corporate regulations.

Foreign investment in Indonesia is regulated by the Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM), and certain industries have ownership limitations. We guide you through investment regulations, ensuring your business structure complies with the Positive Investment List while optimizing your ownership options.
Our experts help you understand foreign direct investment laws, joint venture possibilities, and structuring strategies that align with your industry and objectives.
3. Legal Compliance and Regulatory Support
Every business operating in Indonesia must comply with national and regional laws. We help you maintain compliance by managing:
Annual corporate reporting
Tax registration and compliance coordination
Licensing renewals and permit management
Labor law and employment contracts
By staying compliant, your business can operate confidently without facing penalties or legal complications.
4. Business License and Permitting Assistance
Different industries require specific licenses or operational permits before commencing activities. Our consultants assist with identifying, applying for, and securing the required licenses from relevant authorities.
Whether you’re involved in real estate, tourism, hospitality, or retail, The Bali Lawyer ensures all necessary documentation and licensing requirements are met efficiently.

Investor KITAS (limited stay permits)
Business visas
Work permits for foreign employees
KITAP (permanent stay permits) for eligible individuals
We simplify the immigration process, helping you and your team focus on running your business instead of dealing with complex bureaucracy.

Property ownership and leasing regulations in Indonesia can be challenging for foreign investors. We provide legal guidance for property acquisitions, lease agreements, and land-use rights, including Hak Pakai, Hak Milik, and Hak Guna Bangunan (HGB).
Our experts ensure all transactions are transparent, secure, and compliant with local property laws.
7. Mergers, Acquisitions, and Due Diligence
If you’re expanding your business or investing in an existing Indonesian company, our consultants conduct thorough legal and financial due diligence. We evaluate potential risks, verify ownership documentation, and ensure all business activities comply with Indonesian corporate law.
