Overview

Company deregistration is the formal process of terminating a company’s legal status in Indonesia. It is required when a company:

• Declares bankruptcy

• Is acquired by another entity

• Reaches the end of its business term without renewal

• Voluntarily dissolves

The process ensures that the company is officially closed and removed from government records.

What This Is For

This service helps companies complete the legal steps required to formally dissolve and deregister their business in Indonesia. Common reasons for deregistration include:

Internal Reasons:

• Poor financial performance

• Strategic closure or exit from the market

External Reasons:

• Revocation or cancellation of licenses

• Legal requirements under the company’s Articles of Association

• Company declared bankrupt

• Business term expired and not renewed

• Merger, acquisition, or company split

• Forced dissolution by authorities

Once these conditions are met, the company must apply for deregistration with the Indonesian Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) and cancel its tax registration.

Key Points & Benefits

• Legally terminate business activities

• Avoid future tax liabilities or penalties

• Ensure company data is cleared from public and regulatory databases

• Helps maintain compliance and close the business properly

Note: The process includes company liquidation and tax clearance before deregistration can be finalized.
