. Trademark Registration

. Validity of TDP and SIUP

TDP and SIUP are no longer valid following the implementation of the Job Creation Law, as business licensing is now risk-based, where low-risk businesses receive an NIB, medium-risk businesses require an NIB and a Standard Certificate, and high-risk businesses require an NIB and a license issued by the central or regional government.

A Standard Certificate is legal proof that a business has fulfilled government-defined operational standards and serves as a commitment document under the risk-based business licensing system in accordance with Government Regulation No. 55 of 2021.

. Why KBLI 46 and KBLI 47 Cannot Be Combined

KBLI 46 and KBLI 47 cannot be combined because KBLI 46 regulates wholesale trade where goods are sold to distributors or for further processing, while KBLI 47 regulates retail trade where goods are sold directly to end consumers, as stipulated in Article 19 paragraph (1) of Ministry of Trade Regulation No. 66 of 2019.

. Difference Between PT and CV Based on Business Risk Scale

The difference in business risk between a PT and a CV ranges from low to high, where high-risk businesses require an NIB and business license, medium-high and medium-low risks require an NIB and a Standard Certificate, and low-risk businesses only require an NIB.
