Introduction

An Investment Activities Report (LKPM) is essential for investors and entrepreneurs operating in Indonesia. Mandated by the Indonesian government, it enables the Indonesia Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM) to monitor investment realizations. This regulation supports the country’s efforts to create a transparent and efficient business environment, fostering increased investment opportunities. 

Definition

An Investment Activities Report (LKPM), is a detailed account of investment progress and business challenges, submitted periodically. Mandated by UU No. 25 of 2007 Point 15, it requires investors to report investment activities to BKPM and the Investment and One-Stop Integrated Service Office (DPMPTSP) at both provincial and district/city levels. The document is categorized into two phases: the construction phase for businesses not yet in commercial operation and the operational/commercial phase for businesses already in commercial operation. 

Depending on the business size, the number of reports required annually varies: 

  • Small Businesses: 2 reports per year (bi-annual submissions) 
  • Medium and Large Businesses: 4 reports per year (quarterly submissions) 


Additionally, different sectors may have specific reporting requirements or additional forms that must be completed as part of the submission. These sector-specific reports ensure that the unique aspects and challenges of each industry are adequately monitored and addressed. 

The Importance of LKPM

LKPM submission is compulsory for businesses in Indonesia to monitor risk-based business licensing. This requirement underscores the government’s commitment to a transparent and monitored investment environment, ensuring that all businesses contribute to and align with national development goals. Non-compliance can result in follow-up actions from BKPM, highlighting its critical role in maintaining regulatory compliance and fostering a conducive investment climate. 

The Benefits of Using Professional LKPM Services

Submitting the report not only complies with Indonesian investment regulations but also serves as a vital communication tool between businesses and BKPM. Companies can report operational challenges, allowing BKPM to provide necessary support and facilitation. This process helps in identifying and addressing business hurdles, fostering a supportive environment for investment and business growth in Indonesia.
