Establishment of Legal Entities: Targets & Benefits

In Indonesia, a legal entity is a formal business structure recognised by the government. The two main types of legal entity concepts are Limited Liability Companies (PT) and Foreign Investment Limited Liability Companies (PT PMA). The existence of legal entity types is crucial for several reasons. 

One of the main reasons is the need to obtain a Building Use Right (HGB). Indonesian land law generally limits land ownership to Indonesian citizens and certain legal entities. HGB itself is the right to construct and own buildings on land owned by the state or another party. Obtaining an HGB generally requires establishing a legal entity. This involves establishing a company or organisation recognised as a legal entity under Indonesian law.  

Through a PT or PT PMA, foreign investors can acquire property rights, provided the land use aligns with the company's business activities and complies with applicable regulations. This arrangement allows foreign investors to establish a legal entity in Indonesia, simplifying property ownership while ensuring compliance with the country's land ownership laws.
