Common Questions
Can foreigners operate a cinema operation business in Indonesia?
Nationally yes — but NOT in Bali. KBLI 59140 (Aktivitas Pemutaran Film) 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 59140?
KBLI 59140 has a Rendah risk classification. Required license: NIB. Processing time: Otomatis.
What is KBLI 59140?
KBLI 59140 is the Indonesian business classification code for "Aktivitas Pemutaran Film" (Cinema Operation). It falls under Section J 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 59140 change from KBLI 2020 to 2025?
KBLI 59140 was mapped from previous code 59140 (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.
