Are we allowed to put $$$ into fixed deposit with Bank in Indonesia if we are not Indonesian ?.
I did try before in Jakarta about 2 years ago. I was not allowed. Even Indonesian, they must have NPWP (Income Tax Number) if they need to put their $$$ into fixed deposit account.

I experience is myself that why I remember such rule/procedures.
