The next step after completing your villa’s plans is to apply for an IMB (formerly known as Persetujuan Bangunan Gedung, or PGB), which is a building permit. Building permit approval procedures can take a long time in other nations, but in Bali, they usually go more quickly. You can apply for the PGB and start construction simultaneously once you have zoning approval. Usually, the PGB is issued in three to five months. Visit https://projasa.co.id/en/building-permit for additional details on building permits.
You can begin construction as soon as you have your land, building plans, and zoning approval. Using a contractor that your architect recommends is common because it can help guarantee that the contractor is closely supervised and that the finished product is as close to the original designs as possible. But you also have the option to select your own contractor.
Either way, it’s a good idea to put out a call for bids and get offers from various companies. Selecting a contractor requires careful consideration of various aspects, including communication, references, and cost. Bali building prices in 2022 range from 500 USD/m2 for standard quality to 1500 USD/m2 or more for luxury villas.
There are two typical ways to pay contractors in Bali: a monthly fee or a payment for each milestone reached. Paying a contractor on a milestone basis generally works better because it synchronizes your incentives with theirs and motivates them to work as productively as possible. If you anticipate a lot of changes during the construction process and would prefer not to be constrained by the predetermined milestones, monthly payments might be more appropriate.
When constructing a villa in Bali, it is best to form a company and carry out all business operations under it to reduce tax obligations. It is your responsibility (or your tax advisor’s) to deduct withholding tax from each payment if you build a villa as a company. Your yearly corporate income tax will be deductible from these tax payments as well.

Yes it is quite easy to buy property in Bali safely if you know how the process works. Many foreigners use “nominee agreement” for buying a property. This is where a local Indonesian citizen is nominated to own/buy property on behalf of the foreigner buyer. It seems easy way to overcome the ownership problem, but we don’t recommend it, because the foreigner has no protection over the property. The nominee can jut run off with the property.
