Varnish Manufacturing Is Open Nationally and Not Blocked in Bali

KBLI 20222 covers the making of lacquer, varnish-related products, thinners, removers, and mastic, with national PMA openness up to full foreign ownership.

The honest national-vs-Bali picture is unusually direct: this activity is nationally open up to 100% foreign ownership, and the Bali field does not convert that openness into a local registration block.

What Changed

Direct 1:1 match from KBLI 2020 — code and scope unchanged.

What You Need

Nationally, this activity is fully open to 100% foreign ownership. In Bali, the island-wide moratorium (in force since 13 May 2026) only halts PMA registrations for Low and Medium-Low risk lines — this KBLI's large-scale (Besar) risk class is higher, so it is not caught: PMA registration in Bali remains possible.

Who This Is For

A foreign industrial chemicals entrepreneur or manufacturer looking to produce specialty coatings and solvents — and Bali is not off the table: this KBLI's large-scale risk class sits above the moratorium's Low/Medium-Low band, so a PMA can still register it here.

Common Questions

Can foreigners operate a varnish & lacquer manufacturing business in Indonesia?

Yes. KBLI 20222 (Industri Pernis) is TERBUKA — open to 100% foreign ownership via PT PMA. No local Indonesian partner required.

What license is required for KBLI 20222?

KBLI 20222 has a Menengah Rendah risk classification. Required license: NIB + Sertifikat Standar. Processing time: Otomatis.

What is KBLI 20222?

KBLI 20222 is the Indonesian business classification code for "Industri Pernis" (Varnish & Lacquer Manufacturing). It falls under Section C 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 20222 change from KBLI 2020 to 2025?

KBLI 20222 was mapped from previous code 20222 (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.
