Changing a company’s address in Lombok is not always one single legal procedure. The first question is whether the move changes the company’s place of domicile stated in its Articles of Association, only its full registered address, or an OSS business location. Those records are related, but Indonesian law and the current administrative system do not classify them in exactly the same way.
Indonesia’s core company-law framework remains Law No. 40 of 2007 on Limited Liability Companies, which the official BPK database lists as in force in amended form.

Change Company Address Lombok: First Identify What Is Actually Changing
The fastest way to choose the correct process is to separate legal domicile from the street-level address.
Article 5 provides that a company has a place of domicile determined in its Articles of Association and must have a full address corresponding to that domicile under the official Company Law text.
Place of domicile in the Articles of Association
Article 17 states that the company’s place of domicile is in a city or regency specified in the Articles of Association and that this place of domicile also constitutes the company’s head office under the Company Law.
This distinction matters in Lombok. If the Articles of Association state a particular regency or city as the company’s domicile and the relocation changes that stated domicile, the change reaches the constitutional document of the company rather than merely changing a building or street number.
Full company address
A company can also have a change to its complete address while the legal place of domicile remains the same. Examples can include moving to another building or street within the same statutory city or regency.
The current Ministry procedure expressly distinguishes these two concepts. Article 8 of the current Minister of Law regulation treats a change of place of domicile as an Articles of Association amendment requiring approval, while a change of the company’s full address is separately categorized as a change of company data.
That distinction should be confirmed against the company’s actual Articles of Association and AHU record before preparing documents.
When a Notarial Amendment and Ministerial Approval Are Required
A change to the legal place of domicile is not merely an OSS edit.
Article 21 classifies a change of company name and/or place of domicile among the specified Articles of Association amendments that require Ministerial approval under the official Company Law text.
For these Articles of Association amendments, Article 21 requires the change to be contained or stated in an Indonesian-language notarial deed and provides a 30-day period from the deed for submission of the approval application to the Minister under the Company Law.
The current administrative procedure is governed by Minister of Law Regulation No. 49 of 2025, which has been in force since 17 December 2025 and revoked the previous Minister of Law and Human Rights Regulation No. 21 of 2021.
For an Articles of Association change such as a new place of domicile, Article 10 provides that the application is submitted through a notary electronically through SABH with the amendment deed and relevant supporting documents under the current procedure.
The practical implication is that the legal-company record should be resolved before treating the move as only a licensing-data correction.
What Changes in AHU/SABH
The current procedure divides corporate changes into Articles of Association changes and company-data changes.
A new place of domicile belongs to the Articles of Association category. A change to the full address is separately listed as company data. This is why two companies that both say they are ‘changing address’ may require different corporate-document workflows.
Article 10 also lists a certificate concerning the company’s full address from the building manager or competent authority among the supporting documents that may be relevant to a company change filing under the current Minister of Law regulation.
Before filing, check the latest deed, current AHU profile, wording of the domicile clause, new address evidence and whether the move changes the city or regency named in the Articles of Association.
What Changes in OSS and the NIB
AHU/SABH and OSS serve different administrative functions, so completing the corporate amendment does not mean every licensing record should be assumed to have updated automatically.
The current OSS implementing framework includes Minister of Investment and Downstreaming/Head of BKPM Regulation No. 5 of 2025, which is listed as in force and revoked the 2021 implementing regulations Nos. 3, 4 and 5.
The official OSS business-address correction guide states in its workflow that an address change can change NIB data without changing the NIB number.
That does not mean every relocation is only a correction. If the actual business location changes, the company should review whether location-dependent requirements, spatial conformity, environmental obligations, building approvals, sector licences or PB UMKU records are affected rather than editing the address in isolation.
Moving Within Lombok vs Moving to Another Regency or City
Consider two different situations.
Scenario 1: the office moves to another street while the statutory city or regency remains unchanged. The first issue is whether this is a full-address company-data change rather than a change to the domicile clause itself. The AHU/SABH record and OSS information should still be checked and synchronized.
Scenario 2: the company changes the city or regency stated as its place of domicile. Because the legal domicile is stated in the Articles of Association, the move requires an Articles amendment and Ministerial approval before the company treats the new domicile as its formal corporate position.
The classification should be made from the actual deed, not from informal descriptions such as ‘same island,’ ‘same province’ or ‘just moving offices.’ Lombok contains multiple regencies and the City of Mataram, so a physically short move can still cross the legal domicile boundary relevant to the Articles of Association.
Eight Checks Before Using the New Address
Before completing a change company address Lombok process, review these points:
- Read the domicile clause in the latest Articles of Association. Identify the city or regency currently stated.
- Compare the new location with that legal domicile. Determine whether the move changes the Articles or only the full address.
- Prepare address evidence. Confirm the company’s legal right to use the premises and obtain any address documentation required for the filing.
- Complete the appropriate AHU/SABH step. Where the place of domicile changes, coordinate the shareholder decision, notarial deed and Ministerial approval within the applicable timeline.
- Update OSS data. Check the business-actor and business-location records after the corporate data is correct.
- Review location-sensitive licences. Recheck spatial, environmental, building and sector-specific requirements where the operational location changes.
- Synchronize operational records. Update relevant tax, banking, contracts, invoices, employment records and correspondence where the company’s registered address is used.
- Keep an evidence file. Retain the shareholder decision, deed, Ministerial output, address evidence, updated NIB and affected licences so the company’s records tell the same story.
The objective is consistency. A company should avoid a situation where its latest deed points to one domicile, AHU shows another address and OSS or sector licences still refer to an old location.
After identifying the corporate amendment and AHU records required for the move, use the OSS address-change guide to coordinate the licensing records. If the relocation also changes the activities carried out by the company, review the business-activity amendment checklist as a separate workstream.
If a Lombok relocation also affects an existing company file in Bali or Jakarta, coordinate the original documents with Bali business setup support or Jakarta notarial-document support before treating the Lombok address amendment as the complete corporate update.
Conclusion
A change company address Lombok process begins by identifying whether the company is changing its legal place of domicile or only its full address. Indonesian company law treats those as different concepts, and the current 2025 Ministry procedure preserves that distinction.
If the city or regency stated as the company’s domicile changes, the Articles of Association and Ministerial approval process become central. If the domicile stays the same but the detailed address changes, the focus shifts to accurate company-data and OSS synchronization. In either case, owners should then review whether the operational move affects location-based licensing rather than assuming that an updated NIB alone completes the relocation.

FAQ Change Company Address Lombok
Does every company address change require a new notarial deed?
Not every address issue is classified the same way. A change to the company’s place of domicile is an Articles of Association amendment and requires the formal approval route. The current Minister of Law regulation separately classifies a change of the company’s full address as company data, so the actual deed and current AHU record should be reviewed before choosing the procedure.
What is the difference between company domicile and full address?
Under the Company Law, the place of domicile is the city or regency stated in the Articles of Association and constitutes the company’s head office. The company also has a full address corresponding to that domicile.
What if the company moves from one Lombok regency to another?
If the move changes the city or regency stated as the company’s place of domicile, it changes the Articles of Association and falls within the Ministerial approval framework for a domicile amendment.
Does changing the business address create a new NIB number?
The current official OSS address-correction workflow states that an address change can update the data in the NIB without changing the NIB number. The company should still verify whether the relocation affects other location-dependent permissions.
Should AHU or OSS be updated first?
Where the relocation changes corporate legal data, the safer sequence is to identify and complete the correct AHU/SABH corporate change before relying on OSS synchronization. The exact workflow depends on whether the move changes the Articles of Association or only company data.
Can a new address affect business licences?
Yes, potentially. A relocation can affect location-sensitive requirements such as spatial conformity, environmental approvals, building-related permissions or sector-specific licences. Those effects depend on the business activity and the new location.
