        "content": "<p>Jakarta, Beritasatu.com \u2014 Investment and Downstreaming Minister and\nInvestment Coordinating Board (BKPM) head Rosan Roeslani is preparing to\nintegrate foreign worker (TKA) permits through the Investment Ministry.\nThe government aims to complete the licensing process within a maximum\nof five working days.<\/p>\n<p>The policy is part of bureaucratic reform and licensing\nsimplification intended to give businesses certainty when they need\nforeign workers for investment activities.<\/p>\n<p>Rosan said an agreement to integrate the permits had been reached\nwith the Manpower Ministry and the Ministry of Immigration and\nCorrections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA few days ago, we reached an agreement with the Manpower Ministry\nand the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections that ITAS, or permits\nfor foreign nationals to work, will also be issued by the Investment\nMinistry,\u201d Rosan said at the Investor Daily Summit (IDS) 2026 in Jakarta\non Wednesday (7 October 2026).<\/p>\n<p>He said the government and the relevant parties had agreed on a\nfive-day processing target. The licensing system is currently being\naligned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo permits for foreign workers will also be issued by the Investment\nMinistry, and this will take effect,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Integrating foreign worker permits is part of the government\u2019s effort\nto simplify investment-related administrative processes. A more\nintegrated licensing procedure is expected to give businesses greater\ncertainty over the time needed to meet their workforce requirements.<\/p>\n<p>Rosan said the government had also integrated the Online Single\nSubmission (OSS) system with licensing systems at 18 ministries and\nagencies under Government Regulation No.\u00a028.<\/p>\n<p>The integration is accompanied by deadlines for processing permits\nunder service-level agreements (SLAs). If a ministry or agency does not\nrespond within the specified time, a permit may be issued through the\npositive fictitious approval mechanism, in accordance with applicable\nregulations.<\/p>\n<p>Rosan said the system needed improvement because lengthy licensing\nprocesses could hamper business activity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe hope this will provide clarity, credibility and certainty,\u201d he\nsaid.<\/p>\n<p>The government is also expanding OSS capacity, as linking it with\nvarious ministry and agency systems increases the data-processing\nload.<\/p>\n<p>Rosan said the system is being developed using artificial\nintelligence (AI) and blockchain technology to support data\nsynchronisation.<\/p>\n<p>Through these reforms, the government aims to create a faster and\nmore measurable licensing process, including for documents related to\nforeign workers.<\/p>\n<p>However, the five-day target is a service commitment announced by\nRosan; operational implementation is still awaiting system\nalignment.<\/p>",
