What Is PT PMA
PT PMA is the main vehicle foreign investors use to operate in Indonesia.
PT PMA stands for Perseroan Terbatas Penanaman Modal Asing, or a foreign investment limited liability company. In practice, it is the structure most international founders use when they want to invoice, hire, sign commercial contracts, and build a long-term operating presence in Indonesia. A PT PMA is not just a registration formality. It determines how you hold ownership, which licences you can apply for, how you plan capital, and how later operational steps such as office setup, banking, KITAS, and tax compliance will be handled. Under Law No. 25/2007 on Foreign Investment, the PT PMA remains the legal basis for foreign investment activity in Indonesia. That is why getting the structure right from the start matters. The right setup reduces friction with licensing, corporate governance, and ongoing compliance once the company begins operating.
Requirements
Core PT PMA requirements for founders planning entry into Indonesia
We updated this section to reflect the 2025 BKPM regulation. The most important distinction is between minimum paid-up capital and the broader investment plan.
Investment plan
A PT PMA commonly follows a minimum investment plan of IDR 10 billion per business activity, excluding land and buildings, unless sector rules say otherwise.
Shareholders
At least 2 shareholders are required. They can be individuals or corporate entities, depending on your structure.
Management structure
At least 1 director and 1 commissioner are typically required. A foreign director may need immigration and work authorization depending on role and activity.
Registered address
A registered business address in Indonesia is required. Depending on the setup, a compliant virtual office may be acceptable.
Regulation Note
Based on BKPM Regulation No. 5 of 2025, published on October 2, 2025, the minimum paid-up capital for a PT PMA is IDR 2.5 billion per company. Separately, the regulation still references a common minimum investment value of IDR 10 billion per business activity, excluding land and buildings, unless an exception applies.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
These answers cover PT PMA pricing, capital, structure, ownership, and the practical registration path.
PMA company in Indonesia means a Foreign-Owned Company (Perusahaan Milik Asing). Also known as PT PMA (Perseroan Terbatas Penanaman Modal Asing), this company is allowed to operate in Indonesia based on a legal basis as dictated by Indonesian law.
1. Foreign Workforce Recruitment Capability. 2. Product Registration Ownership: By registering your products under your PT PMA, you gain complete control over the registration process, eliminating the need to rely on Importers of Record. 3. Licensing Authority Ownership: Having a PT PMA allows your company to independently apply for various business licenses, enabling you to diversify your business portfolio.
InvestinAsia's PT PMA registration packages start from IDR 23,000,000 (USD 1,438) for the standard incorporation package. This includes company name check, AKTA notaris, SK Menkumham approval, NPWP, and NIB registration. Additional packages with virtual office (IDR 35,000,000) or serviced office (IDR 45,000,000) are also available.
A PT PMA typically requires at least 2 shareholders plus at least 1 director and 1 commissioner. Shareholders can be individuals or legal entities. The final structure still depends on sector rules, business activity, and document readiness.
Requirements include personal documents (ID cards or passports for all shareholders and directors), proposed company name and business activities (KBLI codes), registered domicile address in Indonesia, and an investment plan. Corporate shareholders need additional documents such as certificate of incorporation and board resolution.
The standard PT PMA registration process with InvestinAsia typically takes around 10 working days after deed signing, excluding sector-specific licences and any extra approvals required by the relevant authority.
Under BKPM Regulation No. 5 of 2025, the minimum paid-up capital for a PT PMA is IDR 2.5 billion per limited liability company. This is separate from the commonly referenced minimum investment plan of IDR 10 billion per business activity, excluding land and buildings, unless specific rules apply.
In many sectors, foreigners can own up to 100% of a PT PMA. However, the final ownership allowance still depends on the relevant business classification, licensing rules, and any sector restrictions that remain applicable in Indonesia.
