What Changed

Direct 1:1 match from KBLI 2020 — code and scope unchanged.

What You Need

While the national regulation allows 100% foreign ownership, in Bali this KBLI is classified as medium‑high risk and not blocked by the moratorium. This means a PMA can be registered, but location approval is critical: you will likely face stricter address verification and may need additional operational permits before you can start.

Who This Is For

Foreign entrepreneurs in logistics, freight forwarding, port handling, or industrial equipment services seeking a Bali‑based cargo‑handling operation.

Common Questions
Can foreigners operate a cargo loading & unloading business in Indonesia?
Yes. KBLI 52240 (Penanganan Kargo (bongkar Muat 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 52240?
KBLI 52240 has a Menengah Tinggi risk classification. Required license: NIB + Sertifikat Standar. Processing time: 3.
What is KBLI 52240?
KBLI 52240 is the Indonesian business classification code for "Penanganan Kargo (bongkar Muat Barang)" (Cargo Loading & Unloading). 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 52240 change from KBLI 2020 to 2025?
KBLI 52240 was mapped from previous code 52240 (KBLI 2020). This is a direct match — the code number and scope remained the same. 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.
