Serviced Office and Virtual Office in Semarang

Why Virtual & Serviced Offices?

Serviced office and virtual office in Semarang are convenient business solutions for independent entrepreneurs as well as small and medium-sized enterprises. Semarang is known for its emerging business potential especially in sectors such as the manufacturing and textile industry.

The expanding city’s infrastructure (LRT, airport and Jakarta-Surabaya toll road), and cheaper labour costs are boosting other smaller industries and attracting both foreign and domestic investors.

However, the city does not have sufficient office spaces. Flexible space and time is not the only benefit that is offered by both virtual and serviced offices. You can also save overhead costs significantly while maintaining professionalism and brand image.

 

Virtual Office Semarang

In Indonesia, it is forbidden to use a residential address for business purposes. To obtain a certificate of domicile required during company incorporation, a business address must be used. The policy that is aimed to improve the business climate in big cities causes headaches to many investors in Semarang as the insufficient amount of offices shoots up the prices.

A virtual office is an office building located in a business area. Thus, both foreign and Indonesian entrepreneurs can register their business address without renting an actual office. The building is, however, fully equipped offering desks and other facilities suitable for business meetings. Not only a logo of your company is displayed at the entrance, but a team of business consultants handles your calls and mail to ensure smooth operation of your company.

Our virtual office in Semarang offers numerous benefits to modern-day businesses, including:

Unravelling Myths about Accounting and Taxes

Unfortunately, many foreign nationals living or working in Indonesia are not familiar with corporate and individual tax regulations.

To the surprise of many, it is not only companies and locals that are obliged to pay taxes in Indonesia. Expats staying in Indonesia for more than 180 days during one taxation year must apply for a taxation number known as NPWP.

Work Permit Application in Semarang

Securing a work permit in Semarang is something you should be very careful of when working in the city or employing a foreign national there. The number of expats coming to Semarang is on the rise, the city is booming, and the government takes a close look at foreign employment law violations.

The patience of Indonesian immigration officers came to an end, no matter what Indonesian city you work. Not having a correct visa is a risk that no company or individual should take. Cekindo is here to make sure that your work permit meets all the legal requirements. The application process might be a tough hurdle, but we will handle it for you.

Unravelling the Myths about a Work Permit

Better safe than sorry – a work permit, work visa and business visa are not the same, and it is important not to confuse them.

A work permit (IMTA) is the only document which allows its holders to be legally employed in Indonesia. Its application usually goes hand in hand with a work permit, but one does not replace the other.

It is important to take note that President of Indonesia Joko Widodo has issued Regulation No. 20 of 2018 on Expatriate Placement Plan (“Reg 20/2018”). This regulation has become effective since 26 June 2018, to replace the old regulation No. 72 of 2014 (“Reg 72/2014”).

Under the new regulation, IMTA is no longer required. In PresReg 72/2014, employers employing foreign workers are required to obtain IMTA (work permit) from the Manpower Minister. Following the enforcement of the new regulation, IMTA is simplified as it is combined with RPTKA.

In March 2021, the Indonesian Government issued The Ministry of Manpower (MOM) Regulation No. 8/2021 that revoked MOM Regulations No. 10/2018 concerning The Employment of Foreign Workers. The recent regulation stipulates that RPTKA approval now serves as the basis for the authority to grant a limited stay visa (VITAS). Once you have received a VITAS, the immigration in Indonesia will issue your limited stay permit (KITAS/ITAS).

The process might take 2 months while the validity of the permit is limited to a maximum of 1 or 6 months or 1 year.

Outsourcing the process will save you the precious time, and we will make sure that a foreign national will join your team in Semarang as soon as possible.
