Businesses Reportedly Barred From Serviced Offices in Jakarta

As we know, there are now many kinds of serviced offices in Jakarta designed to help companies that want a physical office more easily without renting a conventional building. This has been well received by many Indonesians, so quite a few types of businesses have done the same for their own companies.
However, not every business is actually allowed to use a serviced office. This follows Circular Letter No. 06/SE/2016 from the head of the Jakarta one-stop integrated services agency (BPTSP), which limits the use of serviced offices to micro, small and medium enterprises. As a result, several kinds of businesses are reportedly barred from using one. Curious which ones? Read on.

Construction

Construction is one type of business reportedly not allowed to use a serviced office. The reason is the many supporting requirements for this business license, which serviced office companies do not allow. One of them is the application letter for a nuisance permit, along with taxable company status.

Transportation

The second type of business reportedly not allowed to use a serviced office in Jakarta is transportation. A transportation company's presence must be clear and representative. A transportation business also acts as the representative of goods owners in dealing with the receipt and dispatch of goods.

Event Organizers (EO)

The third type of business reportedly not allowed to use a serviced office in Jakarta is the event organizer, or EO. A business of this kind runs many activities that certainly require legal standing for the sake of professionalism, and its responsibilities are very large.

Tourism

Tourism is another type of business that is barred from using a serviced office. Tourism companies are required to hold a tourism business registration certificate, which a serviced office certainly cannot provide.
