General Management Consulting
Aktivitas Konsultansi Manajemen dan Bisnis
🔬 Section M — Professional, Scientific & Technical
General management and business consulting — the workhorse consulting code. Strategic planning, organizational restructuring, HR consulting, financial advisory, market analysis, business process improvement. If you're giving businesses professional advice that isn't tourism-specific (70201), industrial (70202), or a niche specialty (70209), this is where you land. It's the broadest and most popular consulting classification.

Direct match from KBLI 2020 (MATCH_LANGSUNG). Unchanged. This code has been stable across revisions — general consulting is general consulting.
Bali Intelligence
This is the single most popular KBLI code for foreign consultants in Bali. Low risk, automatic NIB, 100% PMA — it's the path of least resistance for legitimate consulting businesses. It's also the code that smart founders use when their actual business (like digital marketing strategy or brand consulting) doesn't fit neatly into a more specific code. Many foreign-owned agencies in Canggu and Seminyak operate under 70203 rather than the restricted 73100 (Advertising). The key is to ensure your contracts describe 'consulting and advisory services' rather than 'advertising placement' or 'media buying.' Virtual office setups work perfectly here — you don't need a physical office to operate.
