The June 2026 fallout
The migration of existing companies to the KBLI 2025 structure had a hard deadline of 18 June 2026. It sounded administrative, and plenty of foreign-owned companies — especially smaller, owner-run operations in Bali — treated it as something to deal with later. Now “later” has arrived, and the consequences are concrete: OSS-RBA accounts that won’t let you update data, NIBs flagged or suspended, and KITAS renewals that mysteriously won’t go through.
The reason it bites so hard is that OSS sits at the centre of everything. Your business licences, your tax position and your immigration sponsorship all read from your OSS company profile. Break that profile, and the damage radiates outward.
How one missed migration becomes several problems
Each unresolved layer makes the next one harder to fix. Recovery is faster the earlier you start.
This is also why a recovery is rarely a single fix. By the time someone notices a blocked account, there are often two or three overlapping causes — a botched migration and a few missed LKPM filings and a licence that lapsed in the confusion. Untangling them in the right order is the actual work.
Our recovery process
- OSS & KBLI audit. We pull your full OSS profile, KBLI codes, licences and LKPM history and pinpoint exactly what is causing the block.
- Correct the KBLI 2025 mapping. We re-map your activities to the right KBLI 2025 codes — checking that the new codes preserve your foreign-ownership ceiling and don’t create a new risk-level or licensing problem.
- Clear the backlog. Outstanding LKPM reports and lapsed licences are brought current, because the system won’t fully release an account while obligations are open.
- Lift the suspension. We work through OSS to restore your NIB and normal account functions.
- Restore KITAS eligibility. With the company profile healthy again, we line up the affected work and investor KITAS renewals — see Work KITAS and Investor KITAS.
Why act now rather than wait
A suspension is not a stable state — it’s a deteriorating one. While it sits unresolved, more LKPM deadlines pass, more licences edge toward expiry, and any KITAS with a near-term renewal date gets closer to a hard stop that’s far more disruptive to fix. The companies that recover cleanly are the ones that start the audit early. Send us your company details and we’ll tell you what’s wrong and what it takes to put it right.
