Thecuy.com – PT Biro Klasifikasi Indonesia (Persero), also referred to as BKI, was founded as a government-owned enterprise on 1 July 1964 and later transformed into a limited liability company in 1977. It serves as Asia’s fourth ship classification body after Japan, China, and Korea, and remains the sole Indonesian classification entity authorized to evaluate the seaworthiness of both Indonesian-flagged commercial vessels and foreign ships navigating the Nusantara waters. The evaluation covers hull construction, propulsion systems, and vessel electrical installations to determine operational safety at sea.
BKI has continued to grow throughout the years. In 2021, it was entrusted to lead a state-owned holding comprised of survey service firms Sucofindo and Surveyor Indonesia, launching the new brand IDSurvey towards year‑end. Further confidence was demonstrated in 2025 when BKI was selected as the operational holding for the State Investment Management Agency Daya Anagata Nusantara (Danantara), highlighting its solid financial standing among other SOEs.
