Indonesia intellectual property ecosystem development

Overview

Indonesia is working to strengthen its intellectual property (IP) ecosystem through long-term strategic planning and service improvements. In August 2026, the Ministry of Law and Human Rights convened a National Intellectual Property Coordination Forum to finalize the National Intellectual Property Master Plan for 2027–2036. Officials proposed designating this plan as a Strategic National Project to align various ministries and agencies.

In September 2026, Law Minister Supratman Andi Agtas announced a target to establish the world’s fastest trademark registration service by 2027, aiming to reduce processing times from approximately six months to 32 days. To support these goals, the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI) is refining budget proposals for 2027 and seeking international expertise through a delegation to the Danish Patent and Trademark Office to study IP management and enforcement.

Efforts to expand the IP ecosystem include calls from DJKI Director General Hermansyah Siregar for increased synergy between central and regional offices to ensure sustainable economic value. This includes strengthening IP centers in universities and formalizing local government cooperation to protect communal assets and cultural heritage.

While the Financial Services Authority (OJK) has issued regulations to allow IP to be used as fiduciary collateral, experts note that further refinement is needed. Digital economy expert Heru Sutadi emphasized that the government must establish clear IP valuation standards and clarify execution mechanisms for debtor defaults to optimize IP as a financing source for the creative economy.
