KONID’s Corporate Services department specializes
in advising clients on the regulatory and legal
framework for investments in Germany and
Indonesia. The key areas of the Corporate Service division
are the establishment of German investment companies
and representative offices. In this regard, the department
has recorded a significant rise in the assessment of
investment opportunities, as well as a multitude of cross-
border corporate, commercial, labor and employment
matters.
The department also successfully continued its
support for the area of corporate law, which include
cases that involve corporate changes and reviews of legal
agreements. In addition, there was a significant increase
in the volume of enquiries regarding dispute resolution,
intellectual property, employment law matters and
import licenses, both general and special import licenses.
Our clients appreciated the qualitatively good support as
well as the cost-benefit-ratio.
In 2018, the department adjusted to a number of
important issues that will continue to be of interest
to us and our partners in the coming years, such as the
signing of Government Regulation No. 24/2018 on the
Electronic Integrated Licensing Service, as well as various
other regulatory reforms the Indonesian government has
undertaken throughout last year. More information on the
Electronic Integrated Licensing Service, as well as various
other legal and regulatory information, can be found
under our Network “Law& Taxes” program, which entered
its fourth year last year.
The Network “Law & Taxes” is a cooperation between
EKONID, law firms and audit and tax advisors from
Indonesia and Germany, which specialize in certain fields
of lawand taxes. EKONID’s Network “Law& Taxes” ensures
that requests that require legal or taxation knowledge
are answered and supported by specialists with high
levels of professional expertise, service, responsibility

Newsletter had issued a total of 10 editions, reachingmore
than 3,000 readers across Indonesia, Asia and Europe and
more than 20,000 online readers worldwide.
