Other Retail Intermediary

🛒 Section G — Wholesale & Retail Trade
Other retail intermediary services — the catch-all code for businesses that facilitate retail transactions between parties without themselves being a digital marketplace platform (47901) or a wholesale trade agent (46100). This includes: aggregators who consolidate orders from multiple buyers, personal shoppers and buying agents, luxury goods concierge services, villa supply procurement specialists, and any intermediary that earns a fee or commission for facilitating retail purchases. The common thread: you don't own the goods you help source or procure — you earn a service fee for connecting buyer to seller or procuring on the buyer's behalf.

Standard operators (Rendah — the path for most businesses)

Large-scale operators (Tinggi — MLM/direct selling at scale)
- High risk (Tinggi). NIB + Izin required. Authority: Menteri (Minister of Trade level). Processing time: 5 working days.
- This applies to large-scale direct selling and MLM network marketing operations — not to standard intermediary/concierge businesses.
Step-by-step
For the Tinggi path (direct selling / MLM operations only)
- Steps 1–2 above
- Izin from Menteri Perdagangan — required documents: company deed, marketing plan (rencana pemasaran), distributor code of conduct (kode etik), sample distributor agreement, list of registered distributors
- Marketing plan review — Kemendag scrutinizes MLM structures; ensure your structure complies with Permendag No. 70/2019
- Izin issued within 5 working days once documentation is complete
Typical total timeline (Rendah path)
3–6 weeks from PT PMA to NIB in hand.
Minimum PT PMA capital
IDR 10 billion stated capital (Rp 2.5B paid-up).
Authority
OSS Pusat (Rendah) · Menteri Perdagangan (Tinggi/MLM).
Fully open (Terbuka) — 100% foreign ownership.
MATCH_CON_AGGREGAZIONE — consolidated from multiple KBLI 2020 codes covering various non-platform retail intermediary types including direct selling, mail order, catalog sales, and other non-standard retail channels. The 2025 version explicitly separates standard intermediary (Rendah, NIB only) from MLM/direct selling at scale (Tinggi, Izin required).
Bali Intelligence
🛍 Intermediary Services in Bali (Where the Real Opportunity Is)
- 47909 is the correct code for a cluster of Bali business models that are genuinely profitable but often misclassified:
Villa supply procurement specialist:
- Bali has 10,000+ active villas, many managed by professional villa management companies. The management company procures F&B supplies, linen, toiletries, maintenance materials, and decor for villa owners
- A specialized villa procurement/sourcing company (47909) earns a service fee or commission on every purchase it facilitates on behalf of villa clients
- This is distinct from wholesale distribution — you don't warehouse goods; you identify, negotiate, and coordinate procurement
Luxury shopping concierge:
- Bali's UHNW tourist segment (private jet arrivals, villa charters in Seminyak/Uluwatu, luxury resort guests) creates demand for personal shopping and luxury goods procurement services
- Personal shopper/concierge arranging luxury items (watches, bags, jewelry, bespoke garments) for wealthy visitors — earning commission or retainer fees
Corporate procurement aggregator:
- Aggregating purchasing needs of multiple hotel groups or F&B operators and negotiating bulk pricing with suppliers — earning an aggregation/coordination fee
⚠ Know When 47909 Ends and Other Codes Begin
- 47901 (digital marketplace): If you build a platform where third parties transact, that's 47901. 47909 is for human-mediated intermediary service, not automated platform facilitation
- 46100 (wholesale agents/brokers): If you intermediate wholesale (B2B, volume) transactions — buyer is a business, not a consumer — that's 46100, not 47909
- MLM/network marketing: If your business recruits distributors who recruit distributors (downline structure), Kemendag scrutiny is real; enforcement of Permendag 70/2019 has intensified
- Scale threshold: In practice, a standard service-fee intermediary (concierge, buying agent) stays Rendah regardless of revenue. The Tinggi path is specifically activated by the MLM/direct-selling structure, not by business size alone
