Running a business in Indonesia can be challenging. This is because local regulations change frequently. Sometimes these changes are so subtle you might not even notice. In addition, the competition in the business sector is also increasing; even smaller companies need to compete with bigger firms.

Hiring corporate secretarial services in Indonesia can offer many benefits, but it’s important to conduct due diligence before selecting a provider. Here are the things you must consider before outsourcing your secretarial tasks:
The first step to hiring corporate secretarial services in Indonesia is asking yourself, “Why are you outsourcing?” The answer should be based on various factors, including:
Once you know your business requirements in depth, you will get an idea of what to expect from a corporate service provider.
Especially if you are hiring from a renowned company, make sure the company has dedicated employees in Indonesia.
3E Accounting is a leading corporate service provider in Asia, with one of our offices located in Indonesia. Hence, when you partner with us, your secretarial tasks will be handled by professionals who have a deep understanding of the Indonesian business sector.
One of the important reasons companies want to outsource is because it helps to cut down costs. Hence, flexibility is one of the most important factors while choosing corporate secretarial services in Indonesia. See if you can only pay for services that you take.
While we don’t recommend you to work with very cheap service providers, the secretarial service company should respect the industry standards while charging you. Furthermore, there should be no hidden costs. Don’t forget to be extra careful about terms such as pre-termination or penalties.
Don’t forget, even if you can control which data you share with the corporate service provider, sometimes, you are trusting them with confidential and essential company information.
Safeguarding sensitive company information is a critical aspect of corporate secretarial services. It is essential to engage a provider that can reliably manage confidential data, provide legal or financial assurances.
As you know, branding and quality deliveries are two very different things. A company can be huge but may fall short when it comes to offering acceptable turnaround times or a good experience. Thus, it is paramount to check the company’s ratings before deciding to work with it.
These are some points to consider while checking the ratings:
When reviewing a company’s feedback, it is important to assess whether the firm consistently prioritises all clients and delivers reliable service across its client base. Pay attention to responsiveness, turnaround times, and the quality of support provided.

3E Accounting offers expert company secretarial services to ensure legal compliance for foreign businesses.
A corporate secretary in Indonesia ensures that a company complies with legal and regulatory requirements, maintains statutory registers, and files necessary documents with government authorities.
While not always legally required for all company types, it is highly recommended, especially for foreign-owned companies, to appoint a corporate secretary to maintain compliance and avoid penalties.
The cost can vary based on the service provider and business complexity, but most reputable firms offer corporate secretarial packages starting from IDR 5,000,000 annually.
In most cases, the role of a company secretary should be filled by a local or resident who understands Indonesian laws and language. Foreigners are generally not preferred unless they have local residency and legal knowledge.
For foreign-owned entities (PT PMA), the corporate secretary handles annual returns, board resolutions, licensing renewals, updates with the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, and more.
A corporate secretary assists with company setup procedures, prepares incorporation documents, submits filings to BKPM, and ensures the timely issuance of business licenses.
