III. LEGAL ASPECTS The government has issued Regulation No. 103 of 2015 on the Ownership of Residential Property by Foreign Citizens Domiciled in Indonesia ( 2015 Regulation ). In essence, the 2015 Regulation redefines the framework for foreign citizens ( Foreigners ) living in Indonesia who are looking to acquire properties for residential purposes. Previously, the same matter was regulated under Government Regulation No. 41 of 1996 ( Previous Regulation ) A. Ownership Limitation Foreigners who live, work, invest or who are generally of benefit to Indonesia may now take possession of property under the so-called right-to-use (hak pakai) land title. This right to use title, however, may only be granted to Foreigners who are in possession of valid residential permits. Note that Foreigners may only extend and renew their right-to-use title periods if their residential permits are still valid.
B. Transfer of Rights The 2015 Regulation allows for the aforementioned property to be inherited after a Foreigner has died. However, their heir(s) must also have secured a valid Indonesian residential permit. Furthermore, the 2015 Regulation also mandates that a Foreigner must relinquish his/her land and property title to an eligible party if they or their heirs are no longer living in Indonesia. This release or transfer must be undertaken within one year (maximum), otherwise the following measures will be imposed: a) For a house built on land designated with a right-to-use title: the house will be auctioned off by the state and the auction gain will be transferred to the former house owner; or b) For a house built on land designated with a right-to-use title that derives from a freehold title: the house will be given to the freehold land owner
