Business Licensing Regulatory Framework On 5 June 2025, the Indonesian government enacted GR 28/2025, formally repealing GR 5/2021. This new regulation introduces a more refined approach to the country’s business licensing system, with the intent to enhance clarity and efficiency in the licensing process nationwide. As stipulated under GR 28/2025, implementing regulations are expected to be issued within four months of its promulgation. In parallel, both the OSS RBA System and the Indonesian National Single Window will require updates to align with the new regulatory framework.

However, the timeline for its promulgation remains unclear.
