What Changed

KBLI 2020→2025 mapping: code renumbered.

What You Need

Nationally, this KBLI is fully open (100%) for foreign ownership. However, in Bali, the activity is currently blocked for PMA companies due to a moratorium on low- and medium-low-risk business classifications, which means a foreign-owned entity cannot register this activity in Bali at this time.

Who This Is For

A foreign entrepreneur looking to run a wholesale paint distribution business targeting Bali's construction and renovation market, but currently held back by the local moratorium on PMA registration for this activity.

Common Questions
Can foreigners operate a paint wholesale business in Indonesia?
Nationally yes — but NOT in Bali. KBLI 46737 (Perdagangan Besar Cat) is TERBUKA (100% foreign ownership) at the national level, but in Bali it is blocked for a PT PMA under the 13 May 2026 moratorium. OSS risk at scale Besar is Rendah/Menengah-Rendah on every scope → blocked by Bali moratorium 13 May 2026 Outside Bali it is open to a PT PMA with no local partner required. (Source: Perpres 10/2021 as amended by Perpres 49/2021 — the investment-list annexes predate KBLI 2025; per-code crosswalk audit in progress.)
What license is required for KBLI 46737?
KBLI 46737 has a Rendah risk classification. Required license: NIB. Processing time: Otomatis.
What is KBLI 46737?
KBLI 46737 is the Indonesian business classification code for "Perdagangan Besar Cat" (Paint Wholesale). It falls under Section G of KBLI 2025, the Indonesian Standard Industrial Classification updated by BPS (Regulation 7/2025). The June 2026 KBLI 2025 transition window has closed; operators should verify the code's current OSS/NIB treatment before relying on it for licensing, reporting, or amendments.
How did KBLI 46737 change from KBLI 2020 to 2025?
KBLI 46737 was mapped from previous code 46637 (KBLI 2020). PP28 uses KBLI 2020 code 46637 (Perdagangan Besar Cat...). Match: 100% The code was renumbered but the business activity scope is essentially unchanged. The June 2026 KBLI 2025 transition window has closed. If an NIB still relies on legacy KBLI 2020 mappings, treat the migration as overdue and verify/remediate the OSS record before new license applications, amendments, LKPM, import approvals, or investor/worker sponsorship.
