Crypto Regulations in Indonesia 2025
Indonesia has recently made significant changes to its regulatory framework for cryptocurrency trading. As of July 2025, the country is no longer under the oversight of Bappebti, but instead now falls under the Financial Services Authority (OJK). This shift in regulatory authority comes with a deadline of July 2025 for crypto companies to comply fully with the new regulations.
The OJK has put in place several measures to ensure the protection and well-being of consumers. These measures include licensing, governance, data protection, and consumer protection. The Indonesian government is actively working on enhancing consumer protection facilities to foster a more secure environment for crypto trading. By treating cryptocurrencies as financial instruments, the country aims to bring about greater clarity and stability to the market.
The OJK has issued licenses for Digital Financial Assets (DFA) traders, with 19 DFA traders granted licenses and another 11 processing their applications at the time of this writing. The government has also issued guidance on crypto taxation, which will take effect in January 2025.
Indonesia is a cryptocurrency-friendly country, with a significant growth in transaction volume and user numbers driven by a tech-savvy population.
