What is a Notary and what is their role when buying or selling land in Indonesia?

A notary is a legal professional who has been officially appointed by the government to serve the public as an impartial witness to the signing of important legal documents in Indonesia. They hold a Notary license and are appointed by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights to notarize deeds.

When entering into agreements to lease a property a notary is required to prepare and officiate the documents. Importantly, notaries are impartial witnesses therefore they are not permitted to provide legal advice during a transaction. Their role is to prepare, witness, authenticate and register legal agreements in line with Indonesian Law.

What checks should I do when leasing property in Indonesia?

As mentioned above the notary’s role is to officiate legal documents. When leasing a property, they are not obliged to undertake due diligence on your behalf aside from checking the current ownership of the property.

We recommend that you conduct due diligence prior to entering into binding agreements to lease property in Indonesia long term. By engaging with a legal consultant to undertake checks on the property you can uncover and resolve any potential issues before having made commitments. They can also explain the process to you, answer any questions and provide translation services. Typical due diligence checks include checking whether there are any zoning restrictions, unpaid land taxes or access issues with the property. 

Atrium will provide all the documentation required to conduct the due diligence process.

Is it a freehold or Leasehold agreement?

With all of our apartments we offer a leasehold agreement. We have very simple and flexible lease agreements that makes it easy for foreigners to own an apartment without the need to setup a company or apply for work permits.

How long is the Leasehold agreement?

The Leasehold agreement aligns with the company certificate title and the HGB (Hak Guna Bangunan or HGB, the right to build and to own a building). The HGB initial period is 30 years, extendable another 20 plus 30 years, then the company will apply for a new HGB. After this the cycle repeats again (30 + 20 + 30 years).   

What is Atrium’s buy back scheme?

We are so confident on the delivery of a superbly appointed apartment, that if any buyer is not fully satisfied on completion, we guaranty to buy back the unit at the initial purchase price plus 10%.

What costs should I bear after the purchase?

Mainly asset maintenance fees, this is to maintain the shared residence facilities.

Do I require a specific visa as a leasehold owner?

No specific visa is required to sign the agreement. If you choose to stay for a longer period, there are multiple visa options that you can apply.

Not necessarily. There are different ways for acquiring Kitas: though a PT PMA company, as retirement over 55 years old, as digital nomad, working Kitas sponsored by a company or student Kitas.

Why Lombok is so attractive as investment destination?

Lombok’s location, population, culture, economy, new projects, tourism, and real estate make it an excellent investment opportunity for foreign investors. Here are the most crucial factors that showcase the strength of the island.

The geographic location of Lombok
Lombok is an Island situated in the West Nusa Tenggara province of Indonesia. It is one of the most beautiful islands in the region, which only adds to its attraction for people from both within and outside Indonesia. 

Tourist demands
Another reason why foreigners are investing in Lombok is because of the volume of tourists visiting the island every year. Reports indicate that the MotoGP Race alone brought 65,000 new visitors to the Island, while it is estimated that approximately 1 million tourists visit Lombok each year. As the number of tourists rise, according to the NTB tourism agency the island only has enough hotels, villas, and homestays to accommodate 24,000 people. 

International Street Circuit
The International Street Circuit is located in the Madalika resort area. It measures 4.3 km in length and has already hosted rounds of the Asia Talent Cup and Superbike World Championship in late 2021. The MotoGP World Championship was also held at this circuit in March 2022.

Development projects are further improving tourist experiences
Lombok’s Mandalika Development Project aims to create luxury tourism in Lombok, similar to Nusa Dua, Bali. The Mandalika project has been assigned to the Indonesian Tourism Development Corporation, the same organization that contributed to the transformation of Bali. Given the government’s drive for tourism enhancement, investing in Lombok is on the precipice of becoming as lucrative as investing in Bali.

Economic zone incentives for investments in Lombok
Indonesia introduced the Special Economic Zone model in 2000. In the past, there was only one Free Trade Zone (FTZ) across the whole country, located in Batam, which is close to Singapore. Through the, Lombok now receives numerous SEZ incentives, including tax and non-tax benefits. For investments exceeding US$ 1.2 Million, SEZs offer tax breaks up to 50%, lasting for five years. This tax break can be further extended for 20 years.

Lombok’s geographic location makes it ideal for tourists
Lombok is two hours away from Singapore and only half an hour away from Bali. Due to various tourist attractions like Gili Islands, Tiu Kelep waterfall, Kalak hot springs, Senggigi, and beaches, Lombok has been gaining much popularity recently. It is now referred to as the “next Bali” for surfers, holidaymakers, beach-lovers, travelers, and investors.

Ease of access
The Zainuddin Abdul Madjid Lombok International Airport recorded a 74% growth in passenger traffic during the first quarter of 2022 when compared with Q1 of 2021.

There are several domestic and international flights connecting Lombok to the rest of Indonesia and the world. Silk Air connects Singapore to Lombok, Garuda Airlines that fly between Lombok and Kuala Lumpur, with a stopover in Jakarta, and Air Asia connects Kuala Lumpur with Lombok.
