PT. PMA Foreign Investment Company

What is a Foreign Company in Indonesia?

In Indonesia, a company is classified as a foreign entity if any portion of its shares—even just 1%—is owned by a foreign investor. Such companies operate under the PT PMA (Foreign Investment Company) license, allowing foreign direct investment in the country.

If you only plan to represent your foreign business in Indonesia without generating income locally, you can opt to set up a Representative Office instead.
