Set up & structure
Company liquidation
Company liquidation in Indonesia, done properly — from the resolution to the final deregistration, or kept dormant instead.
Who this is for. An owner of a PT PMA or PT PMDN that has stopped trading, or never traded, who wants it closed properly — and wants to know first whether closing is the right move at all.
How it works
- Tell us where the company stands
- Prepare the shareholders' resolution
- Provide the liquidator
- Notify the creditors
- Close the registrations
Trusted by companies operating in Indonesia
From 6 months
And we tell clients to allow a year
End to end
Resolution, liquidator, notices, tax, OSS and BPJS
Dormancy first
Where that suits you better, we will say so
On offer
What you get
- A straight answer on whether to close at all — including the case for leaving the company dormant, where that suits you better
- A liquidator, from us, so the role is filled from the day the resolution passes
- The whole closure as one engagement — the shareholders' resolution, creditor notices, tax deregistration, the NIB and licences through OSS, and BPJS
- The final tax audit taken care of, agreed and charged separately
- Your staff exited properly — termination and severance run by our payroll and HR team, agreed and charged separately
What your engagement covers depends on the company. One that has traded has transactions behind it, so its tax compliance needs a more thorough review before it can be dissolved — a company that never traded does not. We agree the scope, and what sits outside it, before anything starts.
Company liquidation in Indonesia is not a single act. It is a resolution, a liquidator, a period in which creditors may come forward, a tax position to settle and registrations to close.
It takes months rather than weeks — so the first question is not how, but whether.
What actually takes the time
Not the paperwork. The tax position. The company’s tax number cannot be deleted until that position is clean — no debt, no open audit or dispute (the rule, and the rest of the sequence) — so the first real work is finding out what has been filed. For a company that stopped trading a while ago, the answer is often “nothing since”.
Where a company has traded, closing it usually triggers a final tax audit. We handle that, quoted separately, because it is a piece of work in its own right.
What you are left with
A company that is properly gone: deregistered for tax, closed at OSS, its BPJS registrations ended, and nothing running in its name. An abandoned company is not a closed one: it keeps obligations it is no longer meeting.
The legal sequence, and what the law requires at each stage, is set out in our note on company dissolution in Indonesia.

Which is right for you?
| Close it | Keep it dormant | |
|---|---|---|
| How long | Six months to a year | It stays as it is |
| What it ends | The company, and every obligation with it | Nothing — the entity remains yours |
| Still to file | Nothing, once it is done | The investment report; the tax side depends on the company’s status |
| We suggest it when | You are certain, and want it finished | The plan may come back, or may not |
Why us
Why MAM for Company liquidation
- We say when closing is not worth the time
Closing takes six months at least, and often a year. A company that has simply stopped trading rarely needs that spent on it: dormancy keeps the entity and is reversible. You will hear that from us before you commit, not after — and if you still want it closed, we close it.
- The liquidator is ours
The winding-up needs a liquidator, and ours comes from our own team rather than a third party you would have to brief, chase and pay separately.
- We fix the arrears rather than hand you a list
A company that stopped trading has usually stopped filing too. Establishing what is outstanding and bringing it current is part of the work we do, not a condition you have to satisfy before we will start.

Questions
What people ask us
How long does it take to close the company?
From six months, and often longer. We tell clients to allow a year. The length is not ours to set — it depends on the tax position, whether the filings are current, and how quickly each office responds.
Will I have to complete my full compliance before the company is dissolved?
In practice, yes. The tax number cannot be deleted while there is tax debt or an open audit or dispute, so the position has to be settled before a closure can finish. Where there are gaps we deal with them as part of the work rather than sending you away to fix them first.
What happens if I leave the company as it is without dissolving it?
It stays a live company, and a live company still files — our note on the [dormant company](/insights/guide-to-dormant-company-in-indonesia/) sets out what remains due whether or not the business trades. Leaving it alone does not pause anything; it usually means dealing with the same position later, at the point somebody wants to close it.
Does the company still have to file anything if we make it dormant instead of dissolving it?
It still files its investment report, and the entity stays yours. The tax side depends on the company’s status, which we settle with you before deciding either way — our note on the [dormant company](/insights/guide-to-dormant-company-in-indonesia/) sets out where that stands.
