Operated by the German-Indonesian Chamber of Industry and Commerce (AHK Indonesia / EKONID), the largest European chamber in the country, offers a well-connected business network and a highly trusted business presence for your company in Indonesia.
EBC enables companies to be present in the Indonesian market without the complexity and investment risks associated with setting up a new company. We hire local staff on behalf of your company using local, compliant employment contracts.
Using EBC, you can establish and operate in the Indonesian market in just 48 hours, with savings of up to 60% compared to setting up a company. We will take care of all local regulations, payroll and social benefits and all with in-house support.

Therefore, the registration of your company in the EBC does not constitute a legal entity in Indonesia, which is a basic requirement for the recruitment of foreign employees.
Yes, we withhold individual taxes on a monthly basis and comply with all local tax laws in Indonesia. Our monthly invoices also include the “employer’s burden” – these are mandatory taxes and other payments required by local governments from employers to pay into social security and other public programs. Our team of experts will provide up-to-date information on payment arrangements in Indonesia, calculate the amounts due based on the employee’s salary and provide a detailed breakdown in your invoice.
No, there are no termination fees. We do, however, retain the local regulation of a 30-day notice period for legally terminating the employee.
