Perseroan Terbatas (PT) is a legal entity that allows foreign investors to conduct profitable business in Indonesia.
While the structure of Perseroan Terbatas (PT) is similar to a United States limited liability company, there are significant differences in Indonesian government regulations that foreign investors must follow.
Some PTs sell shares on stock exchanges, which allows individual investors to participate in the ownership of the company.
There are various types of PT in Indonesia, including open, closed, home, individual and public.
