Indonesia&#8217;s Ministry of Law overhauled its PNBP tariffs on 1 August 2026, and the 2024 figures circulating in old proposals and forum threads no longer apply. Some fees dropped. A few disappeared entirely. Others went up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That gap between what investors think incorporation costs and what it actually costs now shows up at the worst possible moment: mid-filing, when a budget approved months earlier suddenly does not match the invoice. Anyone weighing a PT PMA against a representative office, or a finance or legal team about to sign off on a market entry budget, is walking straight into that gap without knowing it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The sections below walk through exactly what PP No. 30\/2026 changed, which fees moved and which stayed put, and how to price a PT PMA off the current tariff instead of a number that stopped being true months ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Is PP No. 30 of 2026?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"898\" height=\"505\" src=\"https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Open-a-Company-in-Indonesia-PP-No.-302026-Updates-Incorporation-Costs-2.webp\" alt=\"Open a Company in Indonesia PP No. 302026 Updates Incorporation Costs 2\" class=\"wp-image-10673\" srcset=\"https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Open-a-Company-in-Indonesia-PP-No.-302026-Updates-Incorporation-Costs-2.webp 898w, https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Open-a-Company-in-Indonesia-PP-No.-302026-Updates-Incorporation-Costs-2-766x431.webp 766w, https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Open-a-Company-in-Indonesia-PP-No.-302026-Updates-Incorporation-Costs-2-18x10.webp 18w, https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Open-a-Company-in-Indonesia-PP-No.-302026-Updates-Incorporation-Costs-2-300x169.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 898px) 100vw, 898px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PP No. 30\/2026, formally Peraturan Pemerintah Nomor 30 Tahun 2026 tentang Jenis dan Tarif atas Jenis Penerimaan Negara Bukan Pajak yang Berlaku pada Kementerian Hukum, was signed on 2 July 2026 and took effect on 1 August 2026, thirty days after promulgation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It replaces the PNBP tariff provisions previously set out in PP No. 45 of 2024 on Non-Tax State Revenue Applicable to the Ministry of Law and Human Rights. The update aligns PNBP categories with the ministry&#8217;s restructured organization, which now separates legal services, intellectual property, and legislative drafting under distinct directorates general.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a foreign investor, the relevant point is narrower. PP No. 30\/2026 sets the current government fee schedule for the legal and administrative services a PT PMA depends on to be established and to remain compliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Does PP No. 30\/2026 Matter to Foreign Investors Who Want to Open a Company in Indonesia?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Government fees are one component of a market entry budget, but the one with no flexibility. Notarial fees vary by notary and professional service fees vary by scope, while PNBP tariffs are fixed by regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Market entry cost follows a predictable chain: company establishment, corporate legal administration, intellectual property protection, and ongoing corporate compliance. PP No. 30\/2026 touches every link in that chain, because the Directorate General of General Legal Administration (Ditjen AHU) and the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI) both operate under the same ministry and the same regulation, as confirmed in DJKI&#8217;s own public announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Investor confidence in Indonesia remains high despite this change. The Ministry of Investment and Downstream Industry (BKPM) reported total investment realization of roughly Rp1,010.6 trillion for the first half of 2026, up 7.2 percent year on year, with foreign direct investment accounting for just over half of that figure, according to the ministry&#8217;s own published data. A rising deal flow makes an accurate, current fee baseline more important, not less.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Business Hub Asia&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/ja\/services\/business-set-up-indonesia\/\">Business Setup service<\/a> builds the current PNBP tariff into the proposal of every PT PMA, so that a client sees a government-fee line item that reflects PP No. 30\/2026 rather than a stale 2024 figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Services Are Covered by the New PNBP Framework?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>\u30a8\u30ea\u30a2<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Relevance to Foreign Investors<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Legal services (Ditjen AHU)<\/td><td>Deed of establishment ratification, company data changes, business-entity blocking and unblocking requests<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Intellectual property (DJKI)<\/td><td>Trademark, patent, industrial design, and copyright recordal services<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Legislative and general administration<\/td><td>Cross-directorate filings tied to a company&#8217;s registered legal status<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Citizenship and civil services<\/td><td>Relevant mainly to foreign individual shareholders or directors relocating to Indonesia<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PP No. 30\/2026 restructures tariffs across five service clusters at the Ministry of Law. The two clusters that affect nearly every PT PMA are legal services and intellectual property, since both are triggered the moment, a company is incorporated and again at every subsequent filing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Changed in PT PMA Establishment Costs Under PP No. 30\/2026?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PT PMA Establishment Fees Indonesia 2026: What Is New<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The headline change is structural rather than a flat increase. PP No. 30\/2026 reorganizes the PNBP tariff table that previously sat under PP No. 45\/2024, adjusting categories to match the Ministry of Law&#8217;s current directorate structure and, according to DDTCNews&#8217; reporting on the regulation, setting a small number of services at Rp0, including cooperative deed ratification and business-entity unblocking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since PP No. 30\/2026 is only weeks old at the time of writing, Business Hub Asia recommends every prospective PT PMA client confirm the exact tariff for their intended filing against the current official schedule before finalizing an incorporation budget, rather than depending on a fee figure quoted before 1 August 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>PT PMA Establishment Cost: What It Still Includes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PT PMA establishment cost has never been a single number. It combines PNBP government fees, notarial fees for the deed of establishment, and, depending on the business classification (KBLI, or Klasifikasi Baku Lapangan Usaha Indonesia), sector-specific licensing costs layered on top through the OSS (Online Single Submission) system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PP No. 30\/2026 resets only the government-fee portion of that total. Notarial and professional service fees remain a separate, negotiated line item, which is why Business Hub Asia does not publish a single all-in PT PMA price; the total depends on ownership structure, business sector, and required licenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Indonesia PNBP 2026: The Bigger Picture Beyond Company Registration<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Changes in the Indonesia PNBP 2026 are not limited to company registration. The same tariff restructuring affects trademark filings, patent applications, and several citizenship-related services, so a company already operating in Indonesia may see PP No. 30\/2026 reflected in its next intellectual property renewal, not only in a new incorporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New PNBP Fees Indonesia 2026: How to Verify the Current Tariff<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because government tariffs can be revised again, Business Hub Asia treats every PNBP-dependent quote as time-stamped. The safest approach for a foreign investor is to request a written, dated fee estimate ahead of filing rather than budgeting from a figure seen in an older article or proposal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Should Foreign Investors Budget for When Opening a Company in Indonesia?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Government fees sit inside a wider budget. Foreign investors preparing an Indonesia market entry plan generally need to account for four layers of cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Layer 1: Corporate establishment, including incorporation, notarial services, PNBP government fees under PP No. 30\/2026, and corporate documentation.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Layer 2: Business licensing, including the Business Identification Number (NIB), risk-based licensing, PB UMKU (permits supporting business activity), and sector-specific licenses issued through the OSS system.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Layer 3: Operational setup, including office space, employees, accounting, tax registration, payroll, and corporate banking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Layer 4: Intellectual property and compliance, including trademark and patent filings and recurring regulatory reporting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Licensing under Layer 2 runs through Indonesia&#8217;s national <a href=\"https:\/\/oss.go.id\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">OSS system<\/a>, the government&#8217;s single portal for risk-based business licensing. Once a PT PMA is registered, Business Hub Asia&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/ja\/services\/consulting-outsourcing\/\">Consultation &amp; Outsourcing service<\/a> typically picks up Layers 3 and 4, covering accounting, tax, and compliance so the founding team is not managing recurring filings alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Common Mistakes Foreign Investors Make When Opening a Corporate Bank Account in Indonesia<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A PT PMA&#8217;s legal establishment does not automatically guarantee a smooth pathway towards a working corporate bank account, and this is where many foreign investors tend to lose weeks of runway:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Applying for a bank account before the company&#8217;s NIB and tax registration (NPWP) are fully issued, which most Indonesian banks require as a precondition.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assuming a foreign director can complete account opening remotely, when most conventional banks require an in-person visit from an authorized signatory or director him\/herself equipped with valid KITAS based on KYC requirements at the Bank of Indonesia.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Underestimating the minimum deposit or documentation a bank requests from a newly established PT PMA compared with an established local company.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Overlooking digital bank alternatives, which can shorten onboarding timelines for straightforward corporate structures.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Business Hub Asia&#8217;s Legal &amp; Compliance team covers this process in more depth in <a href=\"https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/ja\/corporate-bank-account-opening-indonesia\/\">Corporate Bank Account Opening in Indonesia: Conventional or Digital Bank<\/a>, including a side-by-side look at both routes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>A Recent Example: Budgeting Around the Transition<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In one recent engagement, Business Hub Asia guided a Central European software company through PT PMA incorporation shortly after PP No. 30\/2026 took effect. The client&#8217;s finance team had built its budget on a 2024 fee schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reconciling the budget against the new PNBP framework took a single consultation before submitting any application, thus avoiding a mid-process budget revision that can otherwise delay a company&#8217;s target launch date by weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>In Short: What Does PP No. 30\/2026 Mean for the Cost to Open a Company in Indonesia?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PP No. 30\/2026 does not create a single blanket fee increase. It restructures the non-tax state revenue (PNBP) tariffs charged by Indonesia&#8217;s Ministry of Law for legal services, intellectual property, and related administrative filings, replacing PP No. 45\/2024. Some fees increased, some were simplified, and select services were set at Rp.0. Foreign investors opening a company in Indonesia after 1 August 2026 should confirm the current tariff for their specific filing rather than pertaining to pre-2026 figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Budgeting for Indonesia Market Entry With Confidence<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Government fee schedules will keep evolving as Indonesia continues digitalizing its legal and licensing systems. Foreign investors who build regulatory monitoring into their market entry plan are far less likely to face a budget surprise months into incorporation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Business Hub Asia&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/businesshubasia.com\/ja\/services\/company-registration-indonesia\/\">Company Registration service<\/a> tracks PNBP updates such as PP No. 30\/2026 as part of every PT PMA registration engagement and can prepare an incorporation timeline with a current, written government-fee estimate for the intended business classification.
