The Trade Ministry has distributed circulars to inform officials that business permits (SIUP) no longer need to be renewed and that registration certificates (TDP) can be renewed online.
“We’ve eliminated the SIUP renewal obligation. For TDP, as the law obliges its renewal [every five years], we have shifted the procedure to online for free. The circulars have been issued today,” said Minister Enggartiasto “Enggar” Lukita in a press conference before joining a Trade Ministry working meeting on Tuesday.
Previously, business players had to renew the two licenses every five years, a procedure that was lengthy.
Businesses, meanwhile, have lauded the initiative.
