Freight Rail, Open Nationally and Clear of Bali’s PMA Moratorium

This activity covers rail freight from industrial goods to energy carriers, with national foreign ownership open to 100% and no Bali moratorium block at large scale.

National openness and Bali’s position align here: full foreign ownership is permitted, and the provincial moratorium does not block the activity at the large scale.
What Changed

KBLI 2020→2025 mapping: matched with aggregation.

What You Need

Nationally, foreign ownership is allowed 100%. In Bali, this activity is classified as medium-high to high risk, meaning it’s not blocked by the standard moratorium but requires address-by-address verification — the location must be zoned appropriately and the operation must meet heightened safety and environmental standards. Since Bali lacks an extensive rail network, finding a compliant site and securing the necessary permits will demand careful planning.

Who This Is For

Foreign logistics operators or industrial shippers that specialise in bulk, hazardous, or energy-cargo rail freight and have a clear operational link to rail-served industries in Indonesia.

Common Questions
Can foreigners operate a rail freight transport business in Indonesia?
Yes. KBLI 49120 (Transportasi Kereta Api untuk Barang) is TERBUKA — open to 100% foreign ownership via PT PMA. No local Indonesian 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 49120?
KBLI 49120 has a Tinggi risk classification. Required license: NIB + Izin. Processing time: 14.
What is KBLI 49120?
KBLI 49120 is the Indonesian business classification code for "Transportasi Kereta Api untuk Barang" (Rail Freight Transport). It falls under Section H 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 49120 change from KBLI 2020 to 2025?
KBLI 49120 was mapped from previous codes 49120, 49450 (KBLI 2020). Multiple 2020 codes were merged into this single 2025 code. 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.
