The countdown is officially on. On June 18, 2026, the new KBLI 2025 implementation takes full effect across Indonesia’s Online Single Submission (OSS) system.
For business owners and PT PMA investors in Indonesia, keeping up with the official KBLI 2025 updates has likely felt like watching a wave of endless government announcements.
With less than a month left before enforcement begins, it helps to look past the complex legal language and focus on what this transition practically means for daily business operations.
Will your existing business licenses suddenly expire next month? Let’s break down the official guidelines from the Ministry of Investment’s OSS page.
Official Conversion Tables for the KBLI 2025 Implementation
To map out the new system, the central statistics bureau (BPS) has released a master conversion table. Think of this table as a road map that connects old KBLI 2020 codes directly to their new 2025 versions, tracing changes from broad industry categories down to specific 5-digit operational codes.
The transition table is built with two main features in mind:
▪ It works both ways: Business owners can look up an old 2020 code to see its new classification, or check a new 2025 code against past corporate records.
▪ It is open to the public: The entire mapping database is accessible online at s.bps.go.id/konversiKBLI. Reviewing this early is the easiest way to see exactly how your business classifications will look moving forward.
The Three Code Conversion Models Powering the KBLI 2025 Implementation
The updated system adjusts business classifications using three different conversion styles. Depending on the industry, a business will face one of these three shifts:
▪ One-to-One (Recoding) : This is a straightforward code swap. The actual scope of the business stays exactly the same, but it receives a brand-new code number. For example, several tourism and accommodation activities have been given independent, clear codes:
– KBLI 55203 – Villa Activity
– KBLI 55106 – Non-Star Hotel
– KBLI 55204 – Serviced Apartment
– KBLI 55209 – Glamping
– KBLI 55202 – Youth Hostel
▪ One-to-Many (Splitting) : In this model, a single old code is broken down into multiple, precise categories to create more industry transparency. A great example of this is the hotel sector. The old general code for star-rated hotels (KBLI 55110) is gone. Under KBLI 2025, every individual star rating carries its own unique code (such as separate codes for Four-Star vs. Five-Star hotels).
▪ Many-to-One (Consolidation) : This style takes overlapping service or tech niches and combines them into one unified classification. For instance, instead of property management firms using vague consulting codes, the system introduces KBLI 55400 (Property Management / Accommodation Intermediary Services) to cleanly capture third-party accommodation management under one roof.
Key Steps to Monitor KBLI 2025 Implementation
The official government implementation manual outlines three practical rules that determine what steps a company needs to take next:
▪ Existing Licenses Remain Valid: Any verified license already in place—including basic foundational permits (PD), core business licenses (PB), and supporting operational licenses (PB UMKU)—remains entirely valid. Existing business setups are legally protected from sudden disruptions.
▪ Automated System Adjustments: If the transition only involves a numerical code change with no shift to the actual business activities, the OSS system and Ditjen AHU process the update automatically. For these standard updates, companies do not need to go to a notary to change their physical corporate deeds.
▪ Mandatory Manual Updates: A manual data adjustment and a formal amendment to the company’s Articles of Association (Anggaran Dasar) via a notary are only required if a business changes its core activities. If an enterprise actively alters the substance, primary purpose, objective, or overall operational scope of its business, manual updates become mandatory.
