E-Commerce License – Who is it for and what are the benefits

Indonesia is currently facing massive changes with the adoption of economic digitisation. The new Indonesian digital economy system creates a new gate for local and foreign investors to enter the Indonesian market through digital trades, therefore setting up an e-commerce business is one of the ways to consider when starting a business in Indonesia. It is necessary to understand the regulations for e-commerce businesses in Indonesia.

There are several things investors need to know before setting up an e-commerce business in Indonesia, such as requirements and the right steps to open one. Initially, in order to start an online business in Indonesia, you must first obtain a PSE certificate.

The MOI issues the PSE certificate to confirm that a company’s electronic system is safe and meets Indonesian data protection requirements. This is to increase public trust in the internet by demanding certification from online companies.

As a market-leading business consultancy in Indonesia, LetsMoveIndonesia is encouraged to help your business to acquire the right certificate for your e-commerce business. Obtaining your PSE License through our legal service will help you save time and ensure you have zero hassle when kickstarting your e-commerce business.
