On 15 September 2026, the Government issued the Joint Decree of the Minister of Religious Affairs, Minister of Manpower, and Minister of Administrative and Bureaucratic Reform through SKB No. 1205/2026, No. 3/2026 and No. 2/2026, establishing 18 national public holidays and eight collective leave days for 2027.
For companies operating in Indonesia, public holidays can affect employee scheduling, payroll administration, meetings, notarial work, banking and the timing of submissions to government systems. Planning compliance deadlines around the holiday calendar can help avoid unnecessary last-minute pressure.

Why the 2027 Holiday Calendar Matters to Foreign Businesses
For an international company, a public holiday in Indonesia can affect more than the company’s office opening hours.
Government offices, banks, notaries, employees, suppliers and professional service providers may operate on different schedules during holiday periods. This can become particularly relevant when a company is approaching a statutory deadline.
March 2027 deserves particular attention. Nyepi falls on 8 March, followed by Eid al-Fitr on 10–11 March and three related collective leave dates on 9, 12 and 15 March.
A company waiting until the final working days before these holidays to prepare a filing may have limited time to resolve missing documents, obtain signatures or address administrative issues.
For businesses with Indonesian employees, the calendar should also be incorporated into workforce planning, payroll administration and annual leave arrangements.
What Should PT PMA Companies Put on Their 2027 Compliance Calendar?
For a PT PMA, the holiday calendar should sit alongside the company’s statutory compliance schedule.
Depending on the company’s activities and structure, this may include:
- Monthly tax and payroll obligations;
- BPJS and employment-related obligations;
- LKPM reporting;
- Annual corporate income tax reporting;
- Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (RUPS);
- Annual company reporting and SABH submission;
- OSS and business licensing requirements;
- KBLI-related reviews;
- Foreign-worker and immigration compliance; and
- Updates involving shareholders, directors or commissioners.
The purpose of a compliance calendar is not simply to record deadlines. It should show when preparation needs to begin. If a filing requires financial records, board approval, shareholder documentation, notarial assistance or information from an overseas shareholder, the internal deadline should be earlier than the statutory deadline.
Build Your 2027 Compliance Calendar Around the Holidays
A practical PT PMA compliance calendar can be organised as follows:
Monthly
☐ Review monthly tax obligations
☐ Review payroll and BPJS obligations
☐ Reconcile corporate and tax records
Q1 — January to March
☐ Prepare Q1 LKPM
☐ Prepare annual corporate tax return
☐ Check applicable audit requirements
☐ Review shareholder and management records
Q2 — April to June
☐ Prepare annual company report
☐ Hold Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (RUPS)
☐ Complete required SABH submission
☐ Prepare Q2 LKPM
☐ Review OSS and KBLI information
☐ Review business licences
Q3 — July to September
☐ Prepare Q3 LKPM
☐ Review foreign-worker compliance
☐ Reconcile corporate and tax records
☐ Check whether business changes require additional reporting or licensing
Q4 — October to December
☐ Prepare Q4 LKPM
☐ Review corporate, tax, licensing and employment records
☐ Check upcoming 2028 compliance deadlines
This approach gives businesses a buffer between preparation and submission. It also reduces the risk that a public holiday becomes an unexpected obstacle to an otherwise routine filing.
Plan Before the Holiday, Not During It
For foreign-owned businesses, compliance often involves several moving parts. A tax filing may depend on financial information; a corporate change may require shareholder documentation; and a regulatory submission may require information from a director, commissioner, notary or consultant.
The 2027 calendar therefore provides a useful opportunity to work backwards from important deadlines.
Rather than asking whether a filing can still be submitted before a holiday, businesses should ask whether the supporting documents can be finalised well before the holiday begins.
That distinction can make a significant difference when dealing with Indonesia’s administrative systems.
