Hulu, just like many other services, is not available in Indonesia. And that’s why you are here. You want to know how to watch Hulu in Indonesia.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to make it work, but also how to create a Hulu account, which traditionally requires an American card.
...But first...
Primary due to the rights to the content issue. Secondly, because that market doesn’t currently interest Hulu.
...See, Hulu has a very different approach than platforms like Netflix. Netflix is a global platform for everyone; meanwhile, Hulu, it’s a platform that specifically targets Americans or, more specifically, the American region.
And that’s why Hulu is not even available in Canada.
The content to rights issue?
Well, when a service doesn’t have the rights to show a certain piece of content, it needs to block it for that viewer because otherwise, it will get in trouble.
Hulu? It doesn’t own a lot of its content. And in cases it does, it sometimes sells rights to it so that other platforms can show it in other countries.
All of this then results in you not being able to watch any Hulu in Indonesia and thus having to read thighs guide.
Want to watch Hulu in Indonesia today?
To watch Hulu in Indonesia, you will need to make Hulu think you are in the US.
How do you do that?
By using a VPN to be there virtually.
If you never heard of VPN services, they have many uses, but in this case, they allow you to switch your location on the internet, to be somewhere else.
...By being in the US virtually by using a VPN, you will, in theory, be able to watch Hulu, but it’s not as simple as that.
That’s because most VPN services do not work with streaming platforms as streaming platforms make efforts against VPN services.
...And that’s where PrivateVPN comes in as a service with a primary focus on entertainment, meaning fewer servers than that of other VPN companies, but instead, servers that are able to unblock most streaming platforms out there, such as Hulu.
Here’s how it goes:

...However, we did find an alternative to that issue.
You will need to sign up for Hulu on your phone.

...The only catch is that you will need to change the region of your app store to be in the US, so that you can download the Hulu app.
We’ll show you how to do that now.
Entertainment is best watched on a TV.

The first option will allow you to watch right away.

It will allow you to enjoy Hulu in the most comfortable way possible.
If you just ordered a Fire TV, sign up for an American account to sign up for Hulu.
...Already have an Amazon Fire TV Stick and don’t have an American account?
...The best thing about this Hulu guide? It applies to many other streaming services.
These exact steps will help you unblock just about any service you want, but you can find that out when you sign up for PrivateVPN.
