Real Estate Tokenization
in Indonesia

Indonesia is moving fast: OJK now supervises digital financial assets, has placed property tokens in its sandbox, and is preparing a 2025 regulatory framework for securities/utility tokens that explicitly covers tokenized real estate

  • OJK oversight + sandbox for property tokenization (POJK 3/2024)

  • First live DIRE tokenization pilot (BTN × Reliance MI × D3 Labs)

  • VAT removed on crypto transfers (from Aug 2025)

  • Strong capital-markets base (REIT/DIRE regime under POJK 64/2017)

About

Why Indonesia is Attractive for Tokenization

Tokenization Routes

Possible Routes for Tokenizing Property
in Indonesia

  • Sandbox Property-Benefit Tokens

    When: Pilot-stage models offering revenue shares or usage rights.
    How: Apply to OJK sandbox (POJK 3/2024); operate under caps, disclosures, AML/KYC.
    Live example: GORO (PT Teknologi Gotong Royong / PT Properti Gotong Royong).

  • Securities Crowdfunding with DLT

    When: Smaller ticket raises (equity/debt in property SPVs).
    How: Offer via licensed SCF platform (POJK 57/2020, 16/2021); tokens can mirror shares/notes but remain securities.

  • DIRE (REIT)

    How: Form a DIRE KIK under POJK 64/2017; appoint OJK-licensed IM + custodian; tokenize units for transferability.
    Live precedent: BTN × Reliance MI × D3 Labs pilot (2024).

  • Offshore Issuer + Local SPV

    When: Focus on foreign investors.
    How: Offshore issuer (e.g. Singapore, BVI) + Indonesian SPV/DIRE. No marketing “into” Indonesia without OJK approvals.

Real cases

Implemented Market Examples

  • TanahToken (Bali land pilot)

    One of Indonesia’s first pilots for land-backed tokens, focused on fractional investment into Bali land plots. Structured via local SPV, tokens represent economic rights (not direct land title, as foreign ownership is restricted). Distributed through a controlled investor pool.

  • IDX Digital Asset Sandbox

    The Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX), together with OJK (Financial Services Authority), has tested tokenized securities and real-estate-backed instruments under its regulatory sandbox. Early-stage programs are preparing infrastructure for compliant property tokenization.

  • Crypto-enabled property transactions (practice)

    Several property developers in Bali and Jakarta now accept cryptocurrency (BTC, USDT) for property sales. While not tokenization, this reflects growing acceptance of digital assets in the real estate sector and paves the way for full tokenized offerings.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

  • Is property tokenization legal in Indonesia?

    Yes—under DIRE rules, sandbox pilots, and OJK’s DFA framework. Full securities-token rules are expected in 2025.

  • Is there tax on property tokens?

    From August 1, 2025, VAT is eliminated on crypto/DFA transfers; income tax applies per MoF Reg. 50/2025.

  • Do tokens represent land titles?

    No. Titles remain registered with ATR/BPN. Tokens represent REIT units, SPV securities, or contractual benefits.

  • Are crypto payments allowed?

    No. Only Rupiah is legal tender. Subscriptions/redemptions must use IDR rails.
