Most frequently asked questions
Yes, foreigners can buy property in Indonesia, but there are specific regulations and limitations. Foreigners typically cannot own land outright but can acquire property through long-term leases or by establishing a legal entity in Indonesia, such as a foreign investment company (PT PMA). Here are some common options for foreigners: Leasehold Agreements: Foreigners can enter into leasehold agreements for a period of up to 30 years, with the possibility of extensions. Freehold with a Local Nominee: Some foreigners choose to use a local Indonesian citizen as a nominee to hold the title, but this can be risky and is not officially recognized by the government. PT PMA: By establishing a foreign investment company (PT PMA), foreigners can own property as part of the business assets. Apartments and Condominiums: Foreigners can own apartments and condominiums under certain conditions, typically up to 50% of the units in a building. It’s essential to consult with legal experts or property specialists familiar with Indonesian law to navigate this process correctly and ensure compliance with local regulations.
In Thailand, foreigners can buy property, but there are specific rules governing ownership: Condos: Foreigners can own up to 49% of the total area of a condominium project.

- Leasehold Agreements: Foreigners can lease land for up to 30 years, with potential extensions.
- Thai Company: Foreigners can establish a Thai company to own land, but this requires careful legal structuring and compliance with Thai laws.
Investment in Real Estate: Foreigners can invest in real estate through certain programs, such as the Thailand Elite Residence Program, which offers long-term residency options. Buildings: Foreigners can own buildings (houses) but must lease the land on which they are built.
