Fair royalties for every work, wherever it's heard.

Music rights and royalty administration for Indonesian and international rights holders. We are a music publishing & rights administrator — not a CMO, and we don't collect directly. We bridge you to licensed CMOs in Indonesia and reciprocal partners abroad.

Importantlmkn.org is operated by Perkumpulan Lintas Media Kreasi Nusantara, a technology-based non-profit association. The acronym "LMKN" stands for "Lintas Media Kreasi Nusantara" and does NOT refer to the Lembaga Manajemen Kolektif Nasional established under Article 89 of Indonesian Law 28/2014 (comprising LMKN Pencipta and LMKN Pemilik Hak Terkait, located at lmkn.id). We are not affiliated with lmkn.id, the Ministry of Law and Human Rights, or any government body. We partner with licensed Collective Management Organizations (CMOs) for royalty distribution.

What we do

Music publishing & neighbouring rights administration — like Songtrust, Sentric, or Audiam, with a focus on Indonesia & Southeast Asia.

Register once

We register your works with Indonesian CMO partners and foreign CMOs (ASCAP, BMI, PRS, GEMA, JASRAC, KOMCA…) via reciprocal agreements.

Global reach

Indonesian artists claim foreign royalties; foreign artists claim Indonesian royalties through our licensed CMO partners.

Transparent & auditable

15–25% admin fee, deducted only from collected royalties. Annual independent audit. Full distribution history visible to you.

PDP-compliant

Your data is processed under Indonesian Law 27/2022. Independent DPO. Access, correction, deletion, and portability rights anytime.

No upfront fee

No registration cost. We only earn when you earn — pure "no royalty, no fee".

Bilingual support

Bilingual ID/EN team. Contracts, tax docs, and reporting available in both languages.

Where we sit in the ecosystem

Indonesia has two statutory LMKN bodies (Composers & Neighbouring Rights Owners) under Law 28/2014. Licensed private CMOs (WAMI, KCI, RAI, ARDI, SELMI, etc.) collect royalties from users. We sit at the next layer: a rights administrator helping rights holders navigate the system.

LMKN (statutory)

Established by Article 89 of Law 28/2014. Sets royalty tariffs, coordinates collection, distributes to CMOs. Located at lmkn.id.

Licensed CMOs

Perkumpulan form, licensed by the Minister of Law & HR. Collect royalties from commercial users, distribute to members.

Us (LMKN — Lintas Media Kreasi Nusantara)

Non-profit rights administrator. We help rights holders register with partner CMOs, track usage, and receive distributions — without collecting directly from users.

Who is it for?

Indonesian writers & producers

Your song is on Spotify Brazil, Japanese radio, or a bar in Berlin? We help you collect cross-border royalties via partner CMOs.

Foreign artists & labels

Indonesia has a 280M-person market — many royalties go unclaimed due to bureaucracy. We are your bridge to Indonesian CMOs.

Music publishers

Your catalogue is managed under one official ID (IPI publisher), with consolidated quarterly distributions.

Master / neighbouring rights owners

Performer rights & mechanical for sound recordings — channelled via LMKN Pemilik Hak Terkait + relevant CMOs.
