🎭 Section R — Arts, Entertainment & Recreation
Visual arts creation — the creation of original visual artworks. Painting, sculpture, drawing, printmaking, ceramic art, installation art, digital art, mixed media. This code covers the artist as creator, not the gallery that sells the work or the venue that displays it. If you make visual art, this is your code.
What You Need
PP28/2025 Licensing Data2 scales
Post-License Obligations1
→ Submit periodic business activity reports to regulator
All scales (Mikro/Kecil/Menengah/Besar): Low Risk (Rendah) NIB only — no Standard Certificate or special permits needed at any scale. One of the simplest codes in the entire system.
Fully open — 100% foreign ownership.
Consolidated from multiple 2020 art codes (MATCH_CON_AGGREGAZIONE). The 2025 system merged various visual art subcategories into a single, cleaner 90120 code. Simpler classification, same creative freedom.
Bali Intelligence
Ubud is the undisputed art capital of Bali — and one of the most important art communities in Southeast Asia. The legacy of Walter Spies, Arie Smit, and the Young Artists movement created a tradition that continues today. Dozens of galleries line Jl. Raya Ubud and Jl. Hanoman. For foreign artists, Bali offers an inspiring environment and low cost of living, but the commercial art market is competitive. The opportunity: contemporary art that bridges Balinese traditions with international aesthetics, digital art and NFT creation (Bali has a growing Web3 community), and art residency programs that combine creation with education (link to 85573). Low Risk at all scales means minimal bureaucracy — focus on making art, not paperwork.
