Compliant Talent Sourcing, Payroll, and Legal Frameworks in Indonesia

Expanding your business into Indonesia is an exciting growth opportunity, but navigating the local employment landscape can feel overwhelming. Dealing with unfamiliar labor laws, complex tax structures, and mandatory social security programs can quickly stall your expansion plans and distract your team from core business goals.

Mimo's AI-powered Employee of Record (EOR) service is here to help. We act as your trusted local legal partner, managing all compliance, legal frameworks, and payroll administration so you can scale your team with absolute peace of mind.

Hiring Legally Without a Local Entity

Setting up a legal entity (PT PMA) in Indonesia is a highly regulated, high-capital process that traditionally takes up to 6 months to complete. This extended setup window can cause your business to miss critical market opportunities and delay vital hiring timelines.

With Mimo, you can bypass this complex corporate setup entirely. By leveraging our established, fully compliant local structure, you can onboard and legally employ elite Indonesian talent in just a matter of days.

Streamlined Local Payroll and PPh 21 Tax Compliance

Calculating and filing payroll taxes in Indonesia is a highly detailed process that requires strict adherence to local regulations. Failing to correctly calculate employee income tax (known locally as PPh 21) can lead to audits, financial penalties, and compliance issues for your business.

Mimo simplifies this complex administrative burden by fully managing your team's local tax calculations and monthly reporting. We handle all deduction variables, individual tax classes, and local filing requirements, consolidating everything into a single, transparent monthly invoice in your preferred currency.

Mandatory Social Security & Health Insurance (BPJS)

Providing comprehensive coverage is vital for the well-being of your Indonesian team and is strictly required by national labor laws. Managing these individual health and social security contributions manually is often administratively taxing for foreign companies.

We seamlessly administer Indonesia's mandatory state-backed insurance programs on your behalf. This comprehensive management ensures your remote employees have immediate access to essential protections:

  • BPJS Kesehatan: Comprehensive health insurance management covering medical care, dental services, and hospital coverage for your employees and their dependent family members.
  • BPJS Ketenagakerjaan: Mandatory social security coverage protecting your team against work-related accidents, death benefits, and retirement pension savings.

Employment Contracts and Intellectual Property Protection

Protecting your proprietary business assets while remaining compliant with Indonesia's evolving labor laws is a critical operational priority. Outdated contracts or poorly structured independent contractor agreements can expose your company to massive local legal liabilities.

Mimo's legal experts continuously update all employment agreements to reflect the latest Indonesian Labor Law standards, shielding your organization from legal risks. Furthermore, we protect your business assets with robust, dual-jurisdiction "Work for Hire" clauses, ensuring that all code, creative assets, and intellectual property (IP) are legally and exclusively assigned to your corporate entity.

Adhering to Global and Local Data Protection Standards

In today's digital environment, securing candidate and employee information is non-negotiable. Mimo operates under dual data privacy frameworks, aligning our technical and administrative procedures with both the Singapore Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA) and Indonesia's Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP). This strict adherence to global standards guarantees that your employee data remains safe, secure, and fully protected at all times.
