As a business owner, running your own company is always challenging. One of the biggest challenges that may arise is the possibility of dissolving a company. Unfortunately, the process of closing a company in Indonesia can be another burden if not systematically executed.
Problems that come within the company, such as administrative problems, can also lead to the dissolution of the company. Some other common reasons for company dissolution in Indonesia are:
To dissolve a company in Indonesia a business is obliged to go through a liquidation process. In other words, liquidation is the process of clearing and settling the assets and liabilities of a closing company, either active or inactive in Indonesia, without going through the litigation process.
To approve the liquidation process, a company should assign a liquidator. The liquidator of the closing company can be represented by a legal consultant, a lawyer, or one of the members of the Board of Directors (BoD) during the process of winding up a company. The appointed liquidator is responsible for announcing the dissolution in the State Gazette of Indonesia and the local newspaper agencies. Failure to do so will result in an ineffective liquidation.
The process of closing a company can take between 1 to 1.5 years to complete. According to Act Number 40 of 2007 concerning Limited Liability Company, the steps to dissolve a company are as follows:
No | Legal Steps | Duration (Working Days) |
