Legal Framework

How Australians Buy
Property in Lombok.

Indonesian law does not permit direct freehold ownership by foreigners, but two well-established legal structures give Australians secure, long-term property rights.

Most Popular

Leasehold (Hak Sewa)

The simplest and most common structure for Australian buyers. You lease the land and property for a fixed term — typically 25–30 years with options to extend up to 80 years total. The lease is registered with the National Land Agency (BPN) for full legal protection.

For Commercial Use

PT PMA (Foreign Company)

Establish a foreign-owned Indonesian company (PT PMA) to obtain a Right to Build (Hak Guna Bangunan / HGB) title. This structure is ideal for investors planning commercial villa operations or who require stronger ownership rights. SORA's professional services team can assist with PT PMA setup.

Australia–Indonesia Double Tax Agreement

The DTA between Australia and Indonesia prevents double taxation on rental income and capital gains. Indonesian rental income is subject to a flat 10% final withholding tax, which can be claimed as a foreign tax credit in Australia. We strongly recommend consulting an Australian tax advisor familiar with Indonesian property before investing.
