To drive the national economy, investment is one of the factors that continues to be developed by the Indonesian Government. Various efforts have been made by the Government to encourage both domestic and foreign investors to invest in Indonesia. One of these efforts is to build a new electronic-based licensing system. Based on PP Number 24 of 2018 concerning Electronically Integrated Business Licensing Services or often referred to as OSS, licensing services are becoming easier. Through the OSS system, licensing for business and investment is increasingly simplified. Through the OSS system, it is hoped that legal certainty for investing and doing business in Indonesia will be realized with certainty of requirements, certainty of time periods, certainty of costs incurred and certainty of licensing procedures. It is certain that these permits must be able to provide comfort for business actors, avoiding overlapping permits, abuse of authority or corruption from licensing holders. Business and investment permits must provide certainty of fulfillment of predetermined procedures and requirements so as to avoid disputes and lawsuits in court. With the issuance of Law Number 11 of 2020 concerning Job Creation (UUCK), it has further strengthened OSS as a business and investment licensing service system while realizing legal certainty and legal protection for investors in Indonesia.
