Starting a business

Post new topic

Hi


Just joined the forum as Im thinking of starting a new business in Indonesia.


I am a little confused about the investment requirements. I thought i understood that the minimum investment was 100 billion idr, 25% required immediately on commencement and the remainder after three years, and property purchase/building works couldn't be included. However an article on here suggests its only an initial investment of 2.5 billion.


Can anyone shed any light?


Many thanks

Olly, hi!  This is way, way too complicated a topic for forum discussion. If you are serious, come over to Indonesia and spend some time on its two most important islands, Java and Bali. Mix with, and get to know some expats here and get their input. What you dream of can be incredibly fulfilling and amazing, or, it can be the worst nightmare of your life. The old adage, "many are called, but few are chosen" is the primary message I'd leave you with for now. Cheers and good luck.
