Frequently Asked Questions What if my product has been registered under a local distributor, and I decide to transfer the license to my company or another distributor? You can transfer the license if your local distributor agrees to change the product license holder. Can an individual or a business organization be a shareholder in a PMA company, and is there a minimum number required? A limited liability corporation is required by Indonesian company law to have two or more shareholders, who may be either a legal entity or an individual. The foreign investor must find a second shareholder to own shares in the PMA firm for investments that are 100% open, which could be an affiliated party. How do investors choose a holding jurisdiction for a PMA firm in Indonesia? Investors considering investments in Indonesia should assess existing International Investment Agreements between Indonesia and other countries. Having a business presence in countries with such agreements may offer incentives like stronger investment protection and higher foreign shareholding in Indonesia. What responsibilities does a PMA company have in terms of non-tax compliance? In Indonesia, a PMA company is typically required to submit various reports to relevant authorities, such as: Annual financial report Investment realisation report Manpower and employee welfare report Expatriate utilisation report Company loan repot Foreign exchange and prudential principles report However, depending on the business activities and classification relevant authority may require additional reports from a PMA company.
