Indonesia Special Economic Zone

The basic concept of Indonesia SEZ is the preparation of areas that have accessibility to the global market (access to the seaport and or airport).

The areas are designed to maximize industrial activities, export, import, and other related activities which have high economic value.

    • The SEZs are expected to improve Indonesia’s value-added and value chain through down-streaming industrialization

    The Indonesian government has pledged to make the special economic zones (SEZs) a policy priority to attract foreign investment, boost industrial activity, and promote job creation. This strategy has been further facilitated through various tax incentive programs by Indonesia’s Ministry of Finance.

    These tax incentives include exemptions from income tax, value-added tax (VAT), import duties, sales tax on luxury goods, and excise duties.

    • Tax loss is carried forward for up to 10 years.

    Import duties, tax on the importation, and excise duties are all exempted on the following dutiable/taxable goods:

    • Capital goods used for the construction or development of SEZs for a period of five years; and
    • For the entry of consumable raw materials for service industries (for tourism SEZs); and
    • Entry of goods to be sold in shops and shopping centers (for tourism SEZs).

    • The delivery of taxable services or goods, including land or buildings by a business entity in an SEZ to another business entity in the same or another SEZ; and
    • The import of consumer goods into a tourism SEZ.
