Indonesia enacted a new franchise regulation, Government
Regulation No. 35 of 2024 on Franchising ("GR 35/2024"),
on September 2, 2024.
Franchising in Indonesia was previously governed by Government
Regulation No. 42 of 2007 on Franchising ("GR 42/2007"),
along with an implementing regulation, Ministry of Trade Regulation
No. 71 of 2019 regarding Implementation of Franchising ("MOT
Regulation 71/2019").
This new regulation repeals GR 42/2007. However, MOT Regulation
No. 71/2019 remains in effect until a new MOT regulation can be
enacted.
The new franchise regulation contains several amendments and
provides more detailed requirements to complement MOT Regulation
No. 71/2019.
