Indonesia — the secure way

How foreigners can hold Indonesian property
Foreign nationals can’t hold freehold (Hak Milik) title directly — but there are several legitimate, secure routes to control and benefit from property. We’ll recommend the right one for your goals.
Right to Use (Hak Pakai) — available to foreigners resident in
Indonesia
Leasehold— long-term leases with properly drafted, protective
terms
Through a PT PMA — hold property via a foreign-owned company (Hak Guna Bangunan)
What we do
From first viewing to signed deed
Due diligence
Title checks, zoning, land certificates and seller verification before any money moves.
Contracts & structuring
Lease or purchase agreements and the holding structure, drafted by our legal team.
Secure transaction
Notary coordination, payment safeguards and registration through to completion.
Due diligence is non-negotiable. Bali's market in particular has seen disputes over land that was never legally sellable. We verify before you commit — and we'll walk away with you if something isn't right. Read more on recent investment rule changes.
