In Bali: a PT PMA cannot register this code

In Bali this activity is reserved for MSMEs; a PT PMA (large enterprise) cannot register it. The national procedure below applies only to non-PMA operators.

This activity covers the manufacturing of all types of timepieces—including wristwatches, pocket watches, clocks, and alarm bells—along with watch and clock components like movements, dials, hands, plates, springs, and cases (including those made of precious metals). It also includes the production of time‑recording devices and measuring instruments.

What Changed

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

What You Need

Nationally, this KBLI is 100% open for foreign ownership. In Bali, however, a local moratorium on low and medium‑low risk activities (effective 13 May 2026) blocks PMA companies from registering this business; you cannot currently establish a foreign‑owned watch manufacturing operation in Bali under this code.

Who This Is For

This fits foreign entrepreneurs in horology or precision manufacturing who want to produce complete watches, clocks, or time‑recording instruments and their components.

Common Questions
Can foreigners operate a watch, clock & timing instrument manufacturing business in Indonesia?
Nationally yes — but NOT in Bali. KBLI 26520 (Industri Alat Ukur Waktu) is TERBUKA (100% foreign ownership) at the national level, but a PT PMA currently cannot register it in Bali (reserved for UMKM / 2026 moratorium). OSS risk at scale Besar is Rendah/Menengah-Rendah on every scope → blocked by Bali moratorium 13 May 2026 Outside Bali it is open to a PT PMA with no local partner required.
What license is required for KBLI 26520?
KBLI 26520 has a Menengah Rendah risk classification. Required license: NIB + Sertifikat Standar. Processing time: Otomatis.
What is KBLI 26520?
KBLI 26520 is the Indonesian business classification code for "Industri Alat Ukur Waktu" (Watch, Clock & Timing Instrument 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 26520 change from KBLI 2020 to 2025?
KBLI 26520 was mapped from previous code 26520 (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.
