| Hak Guna Bangunan (“HGB”) | This is a type of leasehold title that includes land with the right of construction.

This type of title must be renewed every 20 years by payment of an HGB tax. |

| Nominee structure | One of the most popular for single structure ownership by foreigners. Essentially a buyer puts land ownership in an Indonesia nominee’s name who signs a series of legal agreements giving up their rights to the land until a sum of money is ‘repaid’. The process has gotten very refined over the last few years with the multiple agreements and willingness of the land office to register a foreigner having debt on land (hak tangunan) at the cantor agrarian itself has facilitated this. One of the issues with nominee structures is that, understandably, purchasers prefer to have some sort of relationship with their nominee. This can make it impractical for most developments, owing to the fact there are multiple buyers. |
