Corporate Income Tax
Corporate Income Tax
Tax rates
Generally a at rate of 22% applies. Public companies that
satisfy a minimum listing requirement of 40% and other
conditions are entitled to a tax cut of 3% off the standard
rate, giving them an effective tax rate of 19% (refer to pages
75-76). Small enterprises, i.e. corporate taxpayers with an
annual turnover of not more than IDR 50 billion, are entitled
to a 50% discount of the standard tax rate which is imposed
proportionally on taxable income of the part of gross turnover
up to IDR 4.8 billion. Certain enterprises with gross turnover of
not more than IDR 4.8 billion are subject to Final Tax at 0.5%
of turnover.
Tax residence
A company is treated as a resident of Indonesia for
tax purposes by virtue of having its incorporation or its
domicile is in Indonesia. A foreign company carrying out
business activities through a Permanent Establishment (PE)
in Indonesia will generally have to assume the same tax
obligations as a resident taxpayer.
2 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Corporate Income Tax
Tax payments
Resident taxpayers and Indonesian PEs of foreign
companies have to settle their tax liabilities either by direct
payments, third party withholdings, or a combination of
both. Foreign companies without a PE in Indonesia have to
settle their tax liabilities for their Indonesian-sourced income
through withholding of the tax by the Indonesian party
paying the income.
Monthly tax instalments (Article 25 income tax) constitute the
rst part of tax payments to be made by resident taxpayers
and Indonesian PEs as a prepayment of their current year
Corporate Income Tax (CIT) liability. A monthly tax instalment
is generally calculated using the most recent CIT Return
(CITR). Special instalment calculations apply for new
taxpayers, nance lease companies, banks, state-owned
companies, listed companies and other taxpayers with
periodical reporting requirements.
The tax withheld by third parties on certain income (Article 23
income tax) or tax to be paid in advance on certain
transactions (e.g., Article 22 income tax on imports) also
constitute prepayments for the current year CIT liability of the
income recipient or the party conducting the import (refer to
pages 33-34 for income items subject to Article 23 income
tax and pages 26-31 for transactions subject to Article 22
income tax).
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 3
Corporate Income Tax
If the total amount of tax paid in advance through the year
(Articles 22, 23, and 25 income taxes) and the tax paid
abroad (Article 24 income tax) is less than the total CIT due,
the taxpayer has to settle the shortfall before ling its CITR.
Such a payment is referred to as Article 29 income tax.
Certain types of income earned by resident taxpayers
or Indonesian PEs are subject to nal income tax. In this
respect, the tax withheld by third parties (referred to as
Article 4(2) income tax) constitutes the nal settlement of the
income tax for that particular income (refer to pages 32-33
for income items subject to nal income tax under Article
4(2) income tax).
For foreign companies without a PE in Indonesia, the
tax withheld from their Indonesia-sourced income by the
Indonesian party paying the income (Article 26 income
tax) constitutes a nal settlement of their income tax due
(refer to pages 34-35 for income items subject to Article 26
income tax).
Business prots
Taxable business prots are calculated on the basis of
normal accounting principles as modied by certain
tax adjustments. Generally, a deduction is allowed for
all expenditure incurred to obtain, collect and maintain
taxable business prots. A timing difference may arise if an
expenditure recorded as an expense for accounting cannot
be immediately claimed as a deduction for tax.

Corporate Income Tax
Taxation on certain offshore income
Indonesian tax residents are generally taxed on a worldwide
income basis. However, the following offshore income may
be exempted from income tax if it is reinvested or used for
business activities in Indonesia within a certain period:
Income received by an Indonesian taxpayer from a PE
abroad;
Dividends paid by companies abroad; and
Active business income received by an Indonesian
taxpayer from abroad (not from a PE or foreign
subsidiary).
For after-tax income from the PE and dividends paid from
the non-listed subsidiary, the minimum reinvestment amount
is 30% of the prot after tax. Otherwise, the difference
between the 30% threshold and the reinvested portion will
be subject to income tax.
Controlled Foreign Companies
Certain income of a Controlled Foreign Companies (CFCs)
are subject to deemed dividend rules in Indonesia. This
income includes dividends, interest, rentals, royalties,
and gains from sales or transfer of assets, with certain
limitations. A CFC is a foreign entity that is at least
50% owned by an Indonesian taxpayer or at least 50%
collectively owned by Indonesian taxpayers. The scope
of CFC income also covers income from indirectly owned
CFC with a minimum of 50% ownership by another CFC, or
collective ownership by an Indonesian taxpayer’s CFCs, or
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 5
Corporate Income Tax
collective ownership by a number of CFCs (including under
the same or different Indonesian taxpayers).
The ownership threshold that is used to determine the
CFC status is the ownership percentage at the end of the
Indonesian taxpayer’s scal year, which is based on either
the percentage of paid-up capital or the percentage paid-up
capital with voting rights. The only situation in which the
rules do not apply is when the CFC’s shares are listed on a
stock exchange.
Capital allowances
Depreciation
Expenditure incurred in relation to assets with a benecial
life of more than one year are categorised and depreciated
from the month of acquisition by the consistent use of either
the straight-line or the declining-balance method.

The comprehensive lists of the assets included in each category
are set out in certain Minister of Finance (MoF) regulations.
Special rules apply to assets used for certain industries (i.e. oil
and gas, forestry, plantation and cattle breeding).
Amortisation
Intangible property or costs, including the cost of extending
building use rights, rights for business use, rights for use
and goodwill with a useful life of more than one year, should
be amortised on the following bases, as appropriate:
a. Using the straight line or the declining balance method
at the rates specied in categories 1, 2, 3, and 4 under
Depreciation (above) based on the useful life of the
property that is applicable for:
general intangible assets;
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 7
Corporate Income Tax
the costs of incorporation and expansion of the
capital of an enterprise; and
the capitalised costs incurred before the
commencement of commercial operations,
with a useful life of longer than one year. Classication
into the appropriate category is determined on the
basis of the nearest useful life. If an intangible asset
has a useful life of more than 20 years, the amortisation
can be carried out using a 20-year period or the actual
useful life based on taxpayer’s bookkeeping.
b. Using the production unit method on costs incurred
in the acquisition of the right to oil and natural gas
concessions, mining rights, forest concessions, and
other rights to exploit natural resources and natural
products with a benecial life of longer than one year.
Other than for oil and natural gas concessions, the
amortisation may not exceed 20% per annum.
Assets arising from Tax Amnesty and Voluntary Disclosure
programmes
Newly declared assets under 2016-2017 Tax Amnesty
and 2022 Voluntary Disclosure programmes cannot be
depreciated or amortised for tax purposes. The acquisition
costs of these assets are based on the value declared in the
Asset Declaration Letter.
8 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Corporate Income Tax
Asset transfers
Sales of a company’s assets (other than land and building)
may result in capital gains or losses, calculated as the
difference between the sales proceeds and the tax
writtendown value of the assets concerned. Capital gains
are assessable whilst a capital loss is tax-deductible only if
the asset concerned is used in the running of the business,
i.e., for obtaining, collecting, and securing assessable
income.
Revaluation of xed assets
Subject to the Director General of Taxes (DGT) approval,
corporate taxpayers and PEs who maintain Rupiah (IDR)
accounting may undertake a revaluation of their noncurrent
tangible assets for tax purposes. This may be carried out
once every ve years. Each revaluation must include all
business-related assets which are owned by the company
and located in Indonesia, except for land (this may be
omitted). Before requesting the DGT’s approval, the
company concerned must determine that it has settled all of
its outstanding tax liabilities.
The revaluation must be conducted on a market or fair
value basis. The market values must be determined by
a Government-approved appraiser. These are subject to
DGT adjustments if the values, in the DGT’s view, do not
represent the fair or market values of the assets.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 9
Corporate Income Tax
Once approved, the depreciation applied to depreciable
assets must be based on the new tax book values
(approved values) on the basis of a full useful life (in other
words, as if the assets were new).
The excess of the fair market value over the old tax book
value of the revalued assets is subject to nal income tax
at a rate of 10%. Subject to the DGT approval, taxpayers
facing nancial difculties may pay this tax in instalments
over 12 months.
Fixed assets falling under categories 1 and 2 must be
retained at least to the end of their useful life. Land,
buildings, and assets falling under categories 3 and 4 must
be retained for at least 10 years after the revaluation date.
Additional nal income tax at a rate of 10% is imposed on
the original revaluation gains if the revalued assets are sold
or transferred before the end of this minimum retention
period. This does not apply to:
a. Transfer of assets because of force majeure or based
on a Government decision/policy or a court decision;
b. Transferred in the course of a tax-neutral business
merger, consolidation, or business split;
c. Withdrawal of xed assets of a company because of
irreparable damage.

dividends to be received are not subject to income tax;
i. Salaries or compensation received by partnership or
rmas members where their participation is not divided
into shares.

Limitation on interest deduction
The acceptable methods to limit the interest deduction are
those commonly used internationally, such as Percentage of
EBITDA (Earning Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and
Amortisation), Debt-to-Equity Ratio, or other methods.
Losses
Losses may be carried forward for a maximum of ve years.
However, for a limited category of businesses in certain
regions or businesses subject to certain concessions, the
period can be extended for up to 10 years. The carrying
back of losses is not allowed. Tax consolidation and group
relief is not available.
Prot distributions
Tax is liable to be withheld from dividends as follows:
a. Resident recipients
Dividend received from an Indonesian company is non-
tax object if it is received or earned by:
Resident individual taxpayers who reinvest it in
Indonesia within certain period; and/or
Resident corporate taxpayers.
Dividends received by resident individual taxpayers who
did not meet the reinvestment requirement, are subject
to nal income tax at a maximum rate of 10%.
12 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia

b. Non-resident recipients:
20% (lower for treaty countries) nal withholding tax is
due on dividends paid to a non-resident recipient.

Corporate Income Tax
Special industries and activities
Certain contractually based concessions are available in
Indonesia. These include Production Sharing Contracts
(PSCs), Contract of Works (CoWs) and Mining Business
Licences (Izin Usaha Pertambangan/IUP).
Companies engaged in upstream oil and gas typically have
to calculate CIT in accordance with their PSCs. The PSCs
can be “conventional” with CIT effectively based on cost
recovery principles or “gross split” which more closely
follow the general CIT rules.
Certain companies engaged in metal, mineral and coal
mining are governed by CoWs for the CIT calculation.
Different provisions may apply including in respect of CIT
rates, deductible expenses and how taxable income is
calculated. CoW arrangements are however no longer
available under the 2009 Mining Law and recent mining
will generally follow an IUP concession. The Mining Law
stipulates that general prevailing tax laws/regulations apply
to these mining projects. Specic tax regulations however
also exist for mining IUPs.
Transfer Pricing
The Income Tax Law denes related parties as:
a. Taxpayer has capital participation directly or indirectly
at least 25% upon another taxpayers; the relationship
between Taxpayers through ownership at least 25%
14 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Corporate Income Tax
upon two or more taxpayers; or relationship between
two or more taxpayers mentioned later;
b. Taxpayer controls the other taxpayer or two or more
taxpayers are under the same control, either directly or
indirectly; or
c. There are family relationship either blood relationship or
by marriage in vertical and/or horizontal lineage of one
degree.
Transactions between related parties must be consistent
with the arm’s length principle. If the arm’s length principle
is not followed, the DGT is authorised to recalculate the
taxable income or deductible costs arising from such
transactions applying the arm’s length principle.
Under the General Tax Provisions and Procedures
(Ketentuan Umum dan Tata Cara Perpajakan/KUP)
Law, the Government requires specic transfer pricing
documentation to prove the arm’s length nature of related-
party transactions.
Taxpayers under certain criteria are required to prepare
transfer pricing documentation, namely: Master le, Local
le, and Country by-Country Report (CbCR). The Master le
and Local le must be available if requested by the DGT,
whilst the summary must be attached to the CITR of the tax
year concerned. The Notication of the CbCR obligation and
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 15
Corporate Income Tax
the CbCR itself (if required) must be submitted to the tax
ofce within 12 months after the end of a tax year.
Detailed transfer pricing disclosures are required in the
CITR. These include:
The nature and value of transactions with related parties;
The transfer pricing methods applied to those
transactions and the rationale for selecting the
methods; and
Whether the company has prepared transfer pricing
documentation.
Indonesian Tax Ofce (ITO) provides specic technical
guidelines to carry out transfer pricing audits.
Transfer pricing disputes may be resolved through the
domestic dispute resolution process or, where the dispute
involves a transaction with a related party in a country
that is one of Indonesia’s tax treaty partners, the parties
may request double tax relief under the Mutual Agreement
Procedures (MAP) article of the relevant tax treaty. MAP may
be applied concurrently with a domestic dispute resolution
process. If the MAP process has not reached agreement
until the announcement of Tax Court or Judicial Review
Decision on a MAP-related content, the DGT may use the
Decision result as a position in the MAP negotiation or
propose a cessation of negotiation.
16 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Corporate Income Tax
The tax law authorises the DGT to enter into Advance
Pricing Agreements (APAs) with taxpayers and/or another
country’s tax authority on the future application of the arm’s
length principle to transactions between related parties.
APAs conclusions may potentially be rolled back to open
years, albeit on a limited basis. In all cases, the APA period
can be up to maximum of ve years.
Sovereign Wealth Fund
Sovereign Wealth Fund (Lembaga Pengelola Investasi/LPI)
is an institution that is authorised to manage the sovereign
wealth fund investments of the central Government.
For Indonesian tax purposes, LPI is considered as a
domestic corporate taxpayer that is subject to general
Income Tax treatment, but with several special tax
treatments in relation to the deductibility of provision
expense and Duty on the acquisition of land and/or building
rights (Bea Perolehan Hak atas Tanah dan Bangunan/
BPHTB), as well as withholding tax exemption on certain
loan interest income.
Third parties cooperating with LPI may also receive special
tax treatment in relation to their dividend income, which will
depend on the fullment of certain requirements and the
type of the dividend recipient.

Individual Income Tax
Tax residence
An individual is regarded as a tax resident if he/she fulls
any of the following conditions:
He/she resides in Indonesia;
He/she is present in Indonesia for more than 183 days
in any 12-month period;
He/she is present in Indonesia during a scal year and
intends to reside in Indonesia.
Note: The provisions of tax treaties may override these rules.
Indonesian tax residents are generally taxed on a
worldwide income basis. However, foreign citizens may be
taxed only on their Indonesian-sourced income for the rst
four years if they full certain requirements. In addition,
there are certain overseas income that are not subject
to tax in Indonesia (see page 4 on Taxation on certain
offshore income).
An Indonesian citizen who is present in Indonesia for less
than 183 days in any 12-month period may be considered
as a non-resident if they full additional requirements, for
example having a permanent home, centre of vital interest,
habitual abode, the status of tax subject, or other criteria
outside Indonesia.
Non-resident individuals are subject to withholding tax at
a rate of 20% (Article 26 income tax, subject to a relevant
tax treaty provisions) on Indonesia-sourced income (as
specied on pages 34-35).
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 21
Individual Income Tax
Registration and ling
Resident individual taxpayers who receive or earn annual
income exceeding the PTKP threshold must register with
the ITO and le Annual Income Tax Return (AITR) (Form
1770). The tax return should disclose all the individual’s
income, including compensation from employment,
investment income, capital gains, overseas income and
other income, as well as providing a summary of the
individual’s assets and liabilities. An Indonesian shareholder
in a CFC is deemed to receive a dividend with respect to the
CFC income. Please refer to pages 4-5 regarding CFCs.
A family is generally regarded as a single tax reporting unit
with a single tax identity number (Nomor Pokok Wajib Pajak/
NPWP) in the name of the head of the family (typically the
husband). His wife and his dependant children’s income
must be reported on the same tax return in his name;
they may or may not be taxed together with his income
depending on whether their income is subject to Article 21
income tax. To support the implementation of single
identity number, the Indonesian resident number (Nomor
Induk Kependudukan) is used as the NPWP for individual
Indonesian residents.
Tax payments
A substantial part of individual income tax is collected
through withholding by third parties. Employers are required
to withhold Article 21/26 income tax on a monthly basis
from the salaries and other compensation payable to their
22 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Individual Income Tax
employees. If an employee is a resident taxpayer, the
amount of tax withheld should be based on the normal tax
rates (as set out above). If he/she is a non-resident taxpayer,
the withholding tax is 20% of the gross amount (and may be
set at a lower rate under a tax treaty).
Various other payments to individuals also call for
withholding tax obligations from the payers. These include,
among others:
Pension payments made by Government-approved
pension funds;
Severance payments;
Old-age security saving payments from BPJS
Ketenagakerjaan;
Fees for services;
• Prizes/awards.
Interest earned on severance payments transferred to a
manpower severance pay management board is subject
to a nal tax of 20% if the board is a bank, or to a 15%
withholding tax under Article 23 income tax in other cases.
Benets-in-kind (BIKs)
BIKs are generally taxable in the hands of the employee. An
exception applies to BIKs that are required for the execution
of a job, the cost of providing BIKs in certain areas, food
and drink provided to all employees, BIKs nanced from
the Government’s budget, and certain types of BIKs with a
certain threshold.

of withholding taxes. Where a particular item of income
is subject to withholding tax, the payer is generally held
responsible for withholding or collection of the tax. These
withholding taxes are commonly referred to using the
relevant article of the Income Tax (Pajak Penghasilan/PPh)
Law, as follows:
(i) Article 21 income tax (PPh 21)
Employers are required to withhold PPh 21 from
the salaries payable to their employees and pay the
tax to the State Treasury on their behalf. The same
withholding tax is applicable to other payments to non-
employee individuals (e.g., fees payable to individual
consultants or service providers). Resident individual
taxpayers without an NPWP are subject to a surcharge
of 20% in addition to the standard withholding tax.
(ii) Article 22 income tax (PPh 22)
PPh 22 is typically applicable to the payments of the
following events:

International Tax Agreements
Double Taxation Agreements
Indonesia’s Double Taxation Agreements (DTAs/tax treaties)
provide for tax benets in the form of withholding tax
exemptions for service fees and for reduced withholding
tax rates on dividends, interest, royalties and branch
prots received by tax residents of its treaty partners. Tax
exemption on service fees is typically granted only if the
foreign party earning the income does not have a PE in
Indonesia.
To claim the reduced rates, the foreign party must, at a
minimum, present its Certicate of Domicile (CoD) to the ITO
through the Indonesian party paying the income. Without
this document, either in the form prescribed by the DGT or
in the form of the treaty partner country (subject to certain
conditions), the party is not entitled to the tax benet and
tax is withheld at a rate of 20%.
The foreign party must rst full the following anti-treaty
abuse tests that are applicable to all types of income
generated from Indonesia:
1. The entity has relevant economic substance either
in the entity’s establishment or the execution of its
transaction;
International Tax Agreements
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 37

4. The entity has sufcient assets to conduct business,
other than the assets generating income from
Indonesia;
5. The entity has sufcient and qualied personnel to
conduct the business;
6. The entity has business activity other than receiving
dividends, interest, royalties sourced from Indonesia;
and
7. The purpose of the transaction is not to directly or
indirectly obtain the benet under the convention that is
contrary to the object and purpose of the convention.
In addition, the foreign party must full the following
benecial ownership test, if required under the relevant
tax treaty when generating income in the form of
dividends, interest, or royalties:
1. The entity is not acting as an agent, nominee, or
conduit;
2. The entity has controlling rights or disposal rights on
the income, the assets, or the rights that generate the
income;
3. No more than 50% of the entity’s income is used to
satisfy claims by other persons;
38 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia

4. The entity bears the risk on its own assets, capital, or
the liabilities; and
5. The entity has no contracts which obliges the entity
to transfer the income received to residents of a third
country.

Value Added Tax
General
VAT is typically due on events involving the transfer of
taxable goods or the provision of taxable services in the
Indonesian Customs Area. The taxable events are:
a. Deliveries of taxable goods in the Customs Area by an
enterprise;
b. Import of taxable goods;
c. Deliveries of taxable services in the Customs Area by
an enterprise;
d. Use or consumption of taxable intangible goods
originating from outside the Customs Area in the
Customs Area;
e. Use or consumption of taxable services originating from
outside the Customs Area in the Customs Area;
f. Export of taxable goods (tangible and intangible) by a
VATable Entrepreneur (Pengusaha Kena Pajak/PKP);
g. Export of taxable services by a PKP.
The VAT obligations arise upon the above deliveries with the
value exceeding IDR 4.8 billion per annum.
The delivery of taxable goods is dened very broadly; it
includes the following:
Value Added Tax
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 49
Value Added Tax
a. Deliveries of a title to taxable goods according to an
agreement;
b. Transfers of taxable goods according to a hire-purchase
or a nance-lease agreement;
c. Deliveries of taxable goods to an intermediary trader or
through an auction ofcial;
d. Own-use and/or free gift of taxable goods;
e. Remaining taxable goods in the form of inventories and/
or assets, which were originally not for sale, upon a
company’s dissolution;
f. Deliveries of taxable goods within a company (e.g.,
between branches, or between the head ofce and its
branches) unless the company, subject to the DGT’s
approval, centralises its VAT reporting;
g. Deliveries of taxable goods by a PKP in the framework
of sharia-based nancing, whereby the deliveries are
deemed to take place directly from the PKP to the party
in need of the taxable goods.
Non-taxable goods and services
By law, all goods and services, unless otherwise stated,
constitute taxable goods or taxable services. The legal
negative list sets out which goods and services are
categorised as non-taxable with certain exceptions. The
below list refers to the rules as of 1 April 2022.
50 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Value Added Tax
Non-taxable Goods
a. food and drink served in hotels, restaurants and the
like, either consumed in the vicinity or taken away,
including food and drink delivered by caterers which is
Regional Tax object; and
b. money, gold bars for the purpose of Government’s forex
reserve, and securities.
Non-taxable Services
a. religious services;
b. public services provided by the Government to carry
out general governmental matters that cannot be
provided by other types of business; and
c. hotel, parking, catering, art and entertainment services
that are subject to Regional Tax.
Tax rates and tax base
The VAT rate is currently 11% and will be increased to 12%
by 1 January 2025 at the latest. This may be increased or
decreased to 15% or 5% according to a GR. However, VAT
on the export of taxable tangible and intangible goods as
well as export of services is xed at 0%. Certain limitations
for the zero-rated VAT apply to export of services.
The use of Other Value as Tax Base
VAT is calculated by applying the VAT rate to a relevant tax
base. In most cases, the tax base is the transaction value
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 51
Value Added Tax
agreed between the parties concerned. For certain events
or situations, other criteria must be used as the tax base,
including:
a. Market value for transactions between related parties,
remaining inventories of taxable goods upon a
company’s dissolution, and sales of (non-inventory)
assets originally not for sale;
b. Cost of sales (selling price minus gross margin) for
own-use or free gifts and internal deliveries of taxable
goods (e.g., between branches, or from the head ofce
to branches);
c. Auction price for deliveries of taxable goods through an
auction ofcer;
d. Agreed price for deliveries of taxable goods through an
intermediary trader;
e. Average result per lm for movies;
f. IDR 12 million per copy of imported movies;
g. 9.9% of the retail selling price for deliveries of tobacco
products;
h. 100/111 of the Government subsidy value and 100/111
of the highest retail price determined by the Minister
of Agriculture for deliveries of certain fertiliser for
agricultural sector;
i. 100/111 from the retail selling price charged by
Government-appointed entity for the delivery of certain
non-subsidised Liqueed Petroleum Gas.

Final VAT regime
Under “Final” VAT regime, the prevailing VAT rate of 11%
is multiplied by a designated percentage resulting in an
effective “Final” VAT rate. The tax base is generally the retail
selling price unless specically mentioned. The Input VAT
in relation to the acquisition of goods or services related to
deliveries under the “Final” VAT regime cannot be credited.
Taxable deliveries under this regime include:
a. 2.2% of total costs incurred or paid, exclusive of the
acquisition price of land, for the self-construction of a
building;
b. 1.1% of selling price on certain deliveries of agricultural
products by certain sellers;
c. 1.1% of selling price on delivery of used motor vehicles;
d. 1.1% of gross commission/fee (including commission
for insurance agent under their management) on
delivery of insurance agent services;
e. 2.2% of gross commission/fee on delivery of insurance/
reinsurance brokerage services;
f. 1.1% of amount billed on package delivery service;
g. 1.1% of amount billed on freight forwarding service
(including freight charges);
h. 1.1% of selling price for tour packages, transportation
facilities, and accommodation on travel agency or
provision of travel package;

54 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Value Added Tax
VAT reporting
Companies and individuals designated as PKP are required
to report their business activities and settle the VAT liabilities
on these every month. VAT is usually to be accounted for
on a decentralisation basis. As a result, a company carrying
out business activities through a number of business units
(branches) in the jurisdiction of different district tax service
ofces (Kantor Pelayanan Pajak/KPP) must register each
unit with the relevant KPP. It is in this context that internal
deliveries of taxable goods within a company are subject to
VAT.
Generally, a company may centralise its VAT reporting and
exclude internal deliveries of taxable goods from the scope
of VAT by submitting a written notication to the DGT.
However, there are certain categories of taxpayers that are
required to perform the centralisation and another category
of taxpayers that is prohibited from doing so.
Input-output mechanism
VAT liabilities are typically settled by using an input-output
mechanism. A vendor of taxable goods or taxable services
must typically charge VAT to the buyer. From the vendor’s
perspective, it is an output VAT. The buyer has to pay the
VAT to the vendor. From the buyer’s perspective, it is an
input VAT. To the extent that the goods or services are
necessary for running the buyer’s business, the input VAT
can be credited against the buyer’s own output VAT. If the
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 55
Value Added Tax
accumulated output VAT for a particular month exceeds the
accumulated input VAT for the same period, the taxpayer
in question has to settle the difference by the end of the
following month and prior to the VAT return ling deadline. If,
however, the accumulated input VAT for a particular month
exceeds the accumulated output VAT, the taxpayer may
carry over the overpaid VAT to the following months or ask
for a yearly refund at the end of book year.
Import and self-assessed VAT
Import VAT on goods and self-assessed VAT (also commonly
known as reverse charge) on the consumption or use of foreign
taxable services or intangible goods should be understood in
the context of the standard input-output mechanism.
Non-resident vendors or service providers can be appointed
to collect VAT on the Indonesian buyer/importer (see section
VAT on e-Commerce). If they are not appointed and thus
cannot collect the VAT, the Indonesian buyer/importer has to
pay the VAT for and on behalf of the non-resident vendor or
service provider.
VAT Collector
A variation from the standard mechanism, however, is in
force for deliveries of taxable goods and services to VAT
Collectors. The VAT Collectors are currently the State
Treasury, BUMN and some of their subsidiaries, PSC
companies in the oil and gas sector, and mineral mining
companies holding certain Special IUP. As the name implies,
a VAT Collector is required to collect the VAT due from a
56 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Value Added Tax
PKP (vendor) on the delivery of taxable goods or services
and to remit the VAT payment directly to the Government,
rather than to the vendor or the service provider. A company
engaged in deliveries of taxable goods or services mainly
to a VAT Collector may accordingly be in an overpaid VAT
position (see page 58 concerning VAT refunds).
Crediting input VAT
VAT must be accounted for to the DGT every month. Input
VAT for a particular tax period (month), in principle, must be
claimed as a tax credit against the output VAT for the same
tax period. However, the claim can still be made within three
months of the end of the particular tax period if the input
VAT has not yet been expensed.
If a taxpayer has not moved beyond pre-production (i.e.
not delivered or exported VATable goods/services) within a
certain period of time, the taxpayer is considered to have
failed to produce and any Input VAT that has already been
credited can no longer be claimed. The general cut-off for
the pre-production stage is three years, with an extension
for manufacturing sectors and business sectors under
National Strategic Projects, which are ve and six years,
respectively.
Input VAT may also be credited under certain circumstances
such as Input VAT prior to becoming a PKP, Input VAT not
reported in a VAT Return and discovered during a tax audit,
or Input VAT collected through a tax assessment.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 57
Value Added Tax
The validity of particular tax invoices is a key to successfully
claiming the input VAT as a tax credit. A tax invoice must
generally contain the following minimum information:
a. the name, address and NPWP of the taxpayer delivering
the taxable goods or services;
b. the name, address and identication number of the
purchaser;
c. the type of goods or services, the quantity, the sales
price or compensation and any discounts;
d. the VAT that has been collected;
e. the Luxury-goods Sales Tax (LST) collected (if any) on
luxury goods;
f. the code, serial number and date of issue of the invoice;
and
g. the name and signature of the authorised signatory to
the invoice.
Failure to satisfy the minimum information requirement will
mean that the input VAT cannot be used as a tax credit.
PKPs are required to prepare its tax invoice in electronic
format (electronic Faktur Pajak/e-FP). Specically for Retailer
PKP, requirements under point b and g are not required.
A tax invoice must be issued at:
a. the time of delivery of taxable goods or services;
b. the time a payment is received if the payment is
received prior to the delivery of taxable goods or
services;
58 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Value Added Tax
c. the time a term-payment is received in the case of
delivery of a part of the work phase; or
d. such other time as maybe stipulated by an MoF regulation.
VAT refunds
Refund applications can be made at the end of a book year.
The DGT is required to make a decision on a VAT refund
application, on the basis of a VAT audit, within 12 months
of the receipt of a complete application. If no decision has
been made within 12 months, the application is considered
to have been approved.
Relevant supporting documents for a VAT refund must be
delivered to the DGT within one month of the application
date. Any documents delivered after that period may be
ignored by the DGT in the VAT refund calculation.
Early VAT refunds are possible for certain taxpayers (see
pages 100-101 concerning early tax refunds).
VAT facilities on certain goods/services
The deliveries and/or import/utilisation of certain taxable
goods/services are given VAT facilities in the form of
exemption or non-collection. The determination of these
goods/services are made through a GR which is based
on the limited scope as stipulated under the VAT Law. The

Luxury-goods Sales Tax
Luxury-goods Sales Tax
In addition to VAT, deliveries or imports of certain manufactured
taxable goods may be subject to LST. A particular item will only
attract LST once, i.e., tax will be charged either on importation
of the goods or on delivery by the (resident) manufacturer to
another party.
LST must be accounted for every month together with
VAT. The importer or the manufacturer of the goods is held
responsible for the settlement of the LST.
A summary of the indicative LST rates is set out below. It
should be noted that the inclusion of a particular item in
the summary does not necessarily mean that the item will
always be subject to LST. Whether or not the particular
item is subject to LST depends on other factors, including
capacity, size, or price.
To ascertain whether or not a particular item is subject to
LST and to identify the LST rate, reference should be made
to the Customs Book using the relevant Harmonised System
(HS) code.
According to the VAT and LST Law, the LST rate may be
increased up to 200%, however currently the LST rates are
between 10% to 95%.

Carbon Tax
Carbon Tax
Carbon Tax is to be imposed on carbon emissions, which
have a negative impact on the environment. The subjects
of Carbon Tax are individuals or companies purchasing
goods containing carbon and/or carrying out activities
that result in a certain level of carbon emissions within a
certain period. The priority for the Carbon Tax imposition
will be the companies. Carbon taxpayers consist of Carbon
Tax collectors and the above Carbon Tax subjects. These
taxpayers may be subject to payment, reporting, and
recording obligations following a specic procedure (i.e.
Carbon Tax collectors should do ling on monthly basis
whilst Carbon Tax subject should be on annual basis).
The rate of Carbon Tax shall be at least the carbon price
in the domestic carbon market per kg CO2e. However, the
rate shall not be less than IDR 30/kg CO2e. The Carbon
Tax is due upon the purchase of goods containing carbon,
at the end of calendar year when the carbon is emitted, or
other designated timing.
Taxpayers who participate in emission trading (under “cap
and trade” mechanism) and emission offset as well as other
mechanisms (in accordance with laws and regulations in
the environmental sector) can be granted a Carbon Tax
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 67
Carbon Tax
reduction and/or other benets for the fullment of Carbon
Tax obligation.
The rst implementing regulation for Carbon Tax stipulating
the “cap and trade” mechanism for Coal-Fired Power
Plant (under Minister of Energy and Mineral Resources
Regulation No. 16/2022) was issued at the end of 2022.
The rst reporting of Carbon emission and its resulting
Carbon Tax (if any) should be led by 30 April 2024 and
Carbon Tax (if due) should be paid before ling.
To facilitate the carbon trading (currently for emission
offset), the Government of Indonesia launched the
Indonesian carbon exchange (IDXCarbon) on 26 September
2023.

As a commitment to liberalising trade, the Indonesian
Government is progressively lowering import duty rates on
most products. Higher duty rates remain to protect certain
industries and goods regarded as sensitive for security
or social and cultural reasons. On top of normal import
duty rates, there are several additional import duty rates
on certain products such as anti-dumping, safeguard,
compensation, and requital import duty rates.

ASEAN duty rates
Limited relief is given to Association of South East Asian
Nations (ASEAN) countries on imports of goods that have
fullled the origin criteria i.e. wholly obtained or not wholly
obtained from the origin country and have been directly
shipped between such countries. Indonesian Government
implements the ASEAN Trade In Goods Agreement
(ATIGA) since 1 January 2010.
This scheme is intended to increase inter-ASEAN trade by
reducing duty rates on most goods to 0% import duty.
Agreements on preferential duty rates
Indonesia has also implemented preferential duty rates
agreements with other countries, either through trade
agreements or economic partnership agreements that is
carried out bilaterally or through regional agreements.
Import duty relief/exemption/deferral
The Indonesian Government offers import duty relief,
exemption, and/or deferral concessions to foreign and/or
domestic investors in order to promote the development
of local and export-oriented industries. This concession

76 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Concessions
The public should consist of at least 300 parties, each

under which assets are transferred at book value, can
be conducted but is subject to the approval of the DGT.
To obtain this approval, the merger, consolidation, or
acquisition plan in question must pass a business-purpose
test. Tax-driven arrangements are prohibited and therefore
tax losses from the combining companies may not be
passed to the surviving company.
Subject to a similar, specic DGT approval, the same

for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) or additional foreign capital
injection may be required for these types of transactions.

Land and Building Tax
Land and building tax (Pajak Bumi dan Bangunan/PBB) is
a tax on property chargeable on all land and/or buildings,
unless exempted. Each regional Government has to issue a
regulation (Peraturan Daerah/PERDA) to regulate PBB in its
territory.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 91
Regional Taxes
The scope of PBB under HKPD Law covers all land and
building except for the following industries which are
governed by separate regulations:
forestry;
plantation;
mining;
other industries located in national waters outside the
territory of regional area.
The negative list setting out land and buildings not subject
to PBB under HKPD Law includes those:
Used by central and regional Government that are
registered as state property or regional property;
Used for public interest in the areas of religious, social
care, health, education, and national culture, which are
not intended to gain prot;
Used as a cemetery, ancient heritage site, or the like;
Constituting protected forests, natural reserve forests,
tourism forests, national parks, grazing land controlled
by a village, and state land with no right imposed on it;
Used by a diplomatic representative, based on the
reciprocal treatment principle;
Used by an agency or representative of an international
organisation, as determined by the MoF;
Used for railway lines, Mass Rapid Transit, Light Rail
Transit, or the like;
Other residential buildings based on a certain sale
value of the tax object (Nilai Jual Objek Pajak/NJOP)
determined by the Head of Region.
92 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Regional Taxes
PBB is payable annually following a Tax Due Notication
Letter (Surat Pemberitahuan Pajak Terhutang/SPPT) issued
by the Regional Government.
An individual or an organisation that owns a right to a piece
land, and/or takes benets there from, and/or owns, controls,
and/or takes benets from a building can by law be regarded
as the PBB taxpayer for that piece of land and/or building.
Under HKPD Law, the PBB rate is maximum 0.5% and the
tax due is calculated by applying the tax rate on a certain
percentage of NJOP (ranging from 20% to 100%) deducted
by non-taxable NJOP. Any changes are to be made by
issuing a PERDA. The non taxable NJOP is set at IDR 10
million at the minimum. In the event that a taxpayer owns
or controls more than one PBB object in one area, the non-
taxable NJOP is only given to one PBB object for each scal
year.
Tax on land and building transfer
A transfer of rights to land and building will give rise to
income tax on the deemed gain on the transfer/sale to be
charged to the transferor (seller). The tax is set at 2.5% of
the gross transfer value (tax base). However, for transfers
of simple houses and simple apartments conducted by
taxpayers engaged in a property development business, the
tax rate is 1%. This tax must be paid by the time the rights
to land and building are transferred to the transferee. All the
tax paid constitutes a nal tax.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 93
Regional Taxes
In general, the tax base is the higher of the transaction
values stated in the relevant land and building right transfer
deed and Sale and Purchase Binding Agreement (Perjanjian
Pengikatan Jual Beli) based on actual transaction value
or amount that should have been received depending
on the type of transaction. However, in a transfer to the
Government, the tax base is the amount ofcially stipulated
by the Government ofcer in question in the relevant
document. In a Government-organised auction, the gross
transfer value is the value stipulated in the relevant deed of
auction.
Duty on the acquisition of land and building rights
A transfer of land and building rights will typically also give
rise to duty on the acquisition of land and building rights
(Bea Pengalihan Hak atas Tanah dan Bangunan/BPHTB)
liability for the party receiving or obtaining the rights.
BPHTB is also a part of regional taxes which are governed
under HKPD Law. Qualifying land and building rights
transfers include sale-purchase and trade-in transactions,
grants, inheritances, contributions to a corporation, rights
separations, buyer designation in an auction, the execution
of a court decision with full legal force, business mergers,
consolidations, expansions, and prize deliveries.
BPHTB is based on the Tax Object Acquisition Value (Nilai
Perolehan Objek Pajak/NPOP), which in most cases is the
higher of the market (transaction) value or the NJOP of
the land and building rights concerned. The tax due on a
94 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Regional Taxes
particular event is determined by applying the applicable
duty rate of a maximum of 5% to the relevant NPOP, minus
an allowable non-taxable threshold. The non-taxable
threshold amount varies by region: the minimum is IDR 80
million, except in the case of an inheritance, for which starts
from IDR 300 million. The Government may change the non-
taxable threshold via regulation.
BPHTB is typically due on the date that the relevant deed
of land and building right transfer is signed before a public
notary. In a business merger, consolidation, or expansion,
the duty is due on the date of signing of the merger,
consolidation or expansion act. In an auction, the duty is
due on the date of signing date of the Auction Report by the
authorised ofcer.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 95
Stamp Duty
Stamp Duty
Stamp duty is nominal, and payable as a xed amount of
IDR 10,000 on certain documents.
Examples of documents subject to stamp duty are as
follows:
a. Agreements, certicates, statement letters, or similar
documents, and their copies.
b. Notarial deeds and grosse, and their copies and excerpts.
c. Deeds of a Land Deed Ofcer and their copies.
d. Securities in any form and name.
e. Securities transaction document.
f. Auction documents in the form of excerpts, minutes,

5,000,000 which describe the receipt of money or

h. Documents to be used as instruments of evidence
before a court.
Stamp duty may be exempted for certain documents,
such as documents on the transfer of Land and Building
rights solely for religious or non-commercial activities
and documents on the implementation of Government
programmes.

Tax Payments and Tax Return Filing
Tax liabilities for a particular period or year must typically
be paid to the State Treasury through a designated tax-
payment bank (bank persepsi) and then accounted for to
the ITO through the ling of the relevant tax returns. Tax
payments and tax returns ling for a particular tax must
be undertaken monthly or annually, or both monthly and

Late payments of the above taxes incur interest penalties
based on the applicable monthly MoF Interest Rate plus
surcharge for a maximum of 24 months. Part of a month, for
example a single day, is considered a full month.
Late ling of a tax return or failure to le a tax return incurs
an administrative penalty at the following amounts:
Type of tax return IDR
VAT return 500,000

Individual income tax return 100,000
CIT return 1,000,000

Tax Payments and Tax Return Filing
For AITR, taxpayers may extend the ling deadline by up to
two months. This may be done by ling a written notication
to the DGT before the deadline, together with a tentative
tax calculation. The tax due according to the tentative
calculation (if any) must be settled before submitting the
extension notication. If the actual tax due based on the
nal tax calculation is higher than the tentative calculation,
an interest penalty based on the applicable monthly MoF
Interest Rate will apply to the difference until the shortfall is
paid, for a maximum of 24 months.
Failure to le a tax return by the relevant deadline may
result in the DGT to issue a warning letter to the taxpayer
in question. The warning letter will typically require the
taxpayer to le the tax return within 30 days of the warning
letter date. Ignoring such a letter can prompt the DGT to
issue an ofcial tax assessment along with an administrative
penalty of 50% of the assessed tax.
Except for corporate and individual income taxes, taxes are
to be accounted for on a decentralised basis. A company
with business units (branches) spread over the country must
accordingly account for the tax obligations to the district
service tax ofces with which the branches are registered.
Please refer to page 54 regarding centralisation of VAT
reporting.
In general, the main form of a tax return must be prepared
in electronic format (e-tax returns), except for certain
100 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Payments and Tax Return Filing
taxpayers. E-tax returns can be led to the ITO electronically
(e-ling) by submitting the e-tax returns through DGT’s
website or by using an application service provider. E-ling
is mandatory for certain type of taxes for certain taxpayers.
Early tax refunds
An early tax refund is available for taxpayers that meet
certain criteria, as follows :
A. Golden Taxpayers
1) Submit tax returns in a timely manner;
2) Have no tax arrears for all types of taxes, except
tax arrears which have obtained a permit to pay tax
in instalments or that have been audited;
3) Financial Statement audited by a public accountant
or the audit board with an Unqualied Opinion for
three consecutive years; and
4) Never have been convicted of a tax crime in the
last ve years.
B. Taxpayers with low refund values
1) Individuals that do not have any business or
freelance activity that apply for an income tax
refund in their AITR;
2) Individuals that have business or freelance
activities that apply for income tax refund in their
AITR of a maximum of IDR 100 million;
3) Companies that apply for an income tax refund in
their AITR of a maximum of IDR 1 billion; or
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 101
Tax Payments and Tax Return Filing
4) PKPs that apply for VAT refund in their VAT Return
of a maximum of IDR 5 billion.
C. Low-risk PKPs
Companies that engage in the following business
activities are considered as low-risk PKPs:
1) Export Activities;
2) Delivering VATable goods and/or services to a VAT
Collector; and/or
3) Delivering VATable goods and/or services for
which VAT is not collected.
A preliminary tax refund is requested by way of ticking the
refund box in the relevant tax return. If the approved tax
refund amount is different from the requested amount, the
taxpayer can re-apply using a separate letter. However, the
taxpayer needs to revise the relevant tax return if they do
not want to re-apply. The DGT will conduct a formal and/or
material examination on all applicants.
The tax ofce can still do a tax audit on the tax year or
period that has been granted a preliminary tax refund and
the administrative sanctions will be followed if the tax audit
results in a tax underpayment positions.
102 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Accounting for Tax
Generally, for tax purposes, a company’s bookkeeping must
be maintained in accordance with the prevailing accounting
standards unless the tax law stipulates otherwise. Individuals
who carry out business or freelance activities must maintain
bookkeeping. However, if the gross turnover from the main
business or freelance activities has been subjected to nal tax
or non-tax object and are below IDR 4.8 billion in a year, the
taxpayer only needs to conduct recording.
By default, the bookkeeping must be maintained in Rupiah,
composed in Indonesian, and stored in Indonesia. Subject
to specic DGT approval, foreign-investment (Penanaman
Modal Asing/PMA) companies, PEs, subsidiaries of foreign
companies, taxpayers listed overseas, and taxpayers
presenting their nancial statements in their functional
currency of USD in accordance with the Financial
Accounting Standards (Standar Akuntansi Keuangan/SAK)
applicable in Indonesia can maintain their bookkeeping in
USD and compose them in English. A collective investment
contract (Kontrak Investasi Kolektif/KIK) is allowed to
use USD accounting to the extent that it issues USD-
denominated investment funds.
Accounting for Tax
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 103
Accounting for Tax
An application for DGT approval must be led with the
DGT’s ofce no later than three months before the beginning
of the USD accounting year. The DGT is required to decide
on the application within a month. If no decision is made
within that time, the application is automatically approved.
PSCs, CoWs, and IUPs may decide to apply USD
accounting in English simply by notifying the DGT in writing.
This notication must be submitted to the DGT ofce no
later than three months before the beginning of the USD
accounting year.
The use of a foreign language other than English and a
foreign currency other than USD in a company’s
bookkeeping is prohibited. Irrespective of the currency and
the language used, companies typically have to settle their
tax liabilities in IDR (except for PSC companies) and le
tax returns in Indonesian. For CIT, the assertions must be
presented in USD side by side with IDR in the annual CITR.
A company that has obtained approval to maintain USD
accounting may return to IDR accounting subject to DGT
approval. Once approval is granted, the company may not
reapply for USD accounting approval during the ve years
after the cancellation of the USD accounting.
104 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
Indonesia uses a self-assessment system under which
taxpayers are required to calculate, pay, and report their
tax liabilities in accordance with prevailing tax laws and
regulations. The DGT may then conduct a tax audit to test
this self-assessment compliance with the tax obligations
and issue tax assessment as a result of tax audit.
Tax audits
The tax audit of a company may cover only a particular tax
or all taxes for a particular tax period (a tax month) or tax
year. It may be conducted at the company’s premises, at the
DGT ofces, or at both.
Conditions triggering a tax audit
Most tax refund request will trigger a tax audit, except
for taxpayers eligible for early tax refunds (see page 100-
101). Due to the requirement for the DGT to decide on a
refund request within 12 months, a tax audit will typically
begin from a few weeks to several months from the refund
request date. A CIT refund request will normally trigger a
complete tax audit covering all taxes. A refund request of
any other tax will normally trigger a tax audit covering only
one particular tax. The DGT will likely broaden the tax audit
scope to include other taxes.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 105
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
Other than that event, DGT may also set other criteria to
select tax audit target based on risk analysis.
Special tax audit may be conducted for certain purposes
and will be subject to different timeline and procedures from
the general tax audit.
One-month rule
Taxpayers being audited are required to provide documents
and information requested by the tax auditors within a
month of the request date. Failure to provide the documents
or information within a month may prompt the DGT to
determine the tax liabilities on a deemed prot basis. Where
documents and information are not supplied within the one
month period, they cannot be used later by the taxpayer to
dispute the amount of tax assessed.
Closing conference
At the end of a tax audit, the tax auditors will provide the
taxpayer with a written notication of the tax audit ndings
to which the taxpayer must respond in writing if there is a
disagreement. The taxpayer may then reassert its position
with regard to the tax audit corrections and present the
relevant supporting documents in the closing conference
discussion.
If there is still a dispute surrounding a legal basis of an
adjustment during the discussion of the tax audit ndings,
the taxpayer may request a discussion with the Quality
106 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
Assurance Team (QAT) appointed by the Regional Tax Ofce
or the Directorate of Tax Audit and Collection.
The tax auditors may change some of the suggested
corrections in light of the taxpayer’s response to the tax
audit ndings notication, the discussion result with the
QAT, and the closing conference discussion.
The results of the nal discussion are then summarised
in a closing conference document that is signed by the
tax auditors and the taxpayer. The taxpayer will have
to state Agree or Disagree to each of the proposed
corrections in the document. The corrections agreed to in
the closing conference document will constitute a basis
for the minimum amount the taxpayer must pay of the tax
assessment issued based on the document. The disagreed
portion has not become a tax arrears until the issuance of
the Objection Decision or Tax Court Decision if the taxpayer
les for Objection or Appeal respectively.
Products of a tax audit
The legal products of a tax audit consist mainly of Tax
Assessment Letters (Surat Ketetapan Pajak/SKP) as
mentioned above and Tax Collection Letters (Surat
Tagihan Pajak/STP), which must be based on the closing
conference document. An STP typically serves as a legal
instrument to collect administrative tax sanctions not
covered in an SKP. In certain other situations, it may also
be used by the DGT to collect tax due in a particular tax
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 107
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
period (month) within the current year and the interest
penalty on this.
Tax assessments
An SKP applies only to one specic tax for one particular
tax period or year and typically takes into account the
following factors:
The tax due;
The applicable tax credits;
The resulting balance between the tax due and the tax
credits (overpaid, nil, or underpaid);
The administrative penalty (interest or a surcharge).
Types of tax assessment letters
The name of an SKP refers to the resulting balance
between the tax due and the tax credits. Accordingly, there
are three types of SKPs:
Overpaid Tax Assessment Letter (Surat Ketetapan Pajak
Lebih Bayar/SKPLB) if the tax due is less than the tax
credit amount;
Underpaid Tax Assessment Letter (Surat Ketetapan
Pajak Kurang Bayar/SKPKB) if the tax due exceeds the
tax credit amount;
Nil Tax Assessment Letter (Surat Ketetapan Pajak Nihil/
SKPN) if the tax due amount is equal to the tax credit
amount.
108 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
If an SKPKB is issued, this may include administrative
penalties in the form of interest based on the applicable
MoF Interest Rate, plus a surcharge for a maximum of
24 months, or a 75% surcharge.
Which penalties are applicable will depend on the type
of wrongdoing the taxpayer has committed. The penalty
amounts are determined by the application of the relevant
rate to the underpaid tax amounts. Specic on VAT
assessment, if the penalty may result in the application of
multiple administrative sanction, the DGT will only apply
sanction that has the highest value.
Payments of tax assessment
Tax due based on an SKP must be paid within one month
after the issuance of the relevant SKP. If the taxpayer does
not pay the tax due and not apply for an Objection, the tax
due will be collected using a Distress Warrant.
Statute of limitation
The DGT can issue an SKPKB within ve years after the
incurrence of a tax liability, the end of a tax period (month),
or the end of (part of) a tax year.
Once an SKP for a particular tax of a particular month or
year has been issued, additional SKPs may still be issued
within ve years to the extent there is new data (novum)
or information which was not disclosed (or not adequately
disclosed) in the tax returns and/or during tax audits.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 109
Tax Audits and Tax Assessments
The issue of an Additional Underpaid Tax Assessment
Letter (Surat Ketetapan Pajak Kurang Bayar Tambahan/
SKPKBT) calls for a 100% surcharge on the tax due as an
administrative penalty. However, a taxpayer may avoid the
surcharge if the SKPKBT was issued based on taxpayer’s
voluntary disclosures prior to DGT conducting a tax audit to
issue the SKPKBT.
The tax due reported in a tax return is considered certain
if no SKP is issued within ve years. Nevertheless, an
SKPKB can still be issued beyond ve years to a taxpayer
who conduct taxation crime on the expired period.
110 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Collection Using Distress Warrant
Tax Collection Using Distress
Warrant
If a legal tax collection instrument is not paid within the
required time, the DGT may by law issue a Distress Warrant
(Surat Paksa) to a taxpayer. The instruments include the
following documents:
STP;
SKPKB;
SKPKBT;
Tax Objection Decision Letters (which demand an
additional payment from the taxpayer);
Tax Court Decisions (which demand an additional
payment from the taxpayer);
Correction Decision Letters (which demand an
additional payment from the taxpayer).
The relevant taxpayer is required to pay the underpaid
tax stated in a tax collection instrument within a month of
the instrument date. Any late payments trigger an interest
penalty based on the applicable monthly MoF Interest
Rate for a maximum of 24 months.
Under the current Tax Administration Law, taxpayers are
bound to pay only the minimum amount they have agreed
to in the tax audit closing conference, provided that they
le an Objection or at a later stage, an Appeal in respect to
the particular SKP.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 111
Tax Collection Using Distress Warrant
The remaining part of the assessment not agreed during
the closing conference will only be due after the DGT has
made a decision on the Objection or the Tax Court makes
a decision on the Appeal that is not in the taxpayer’s
favour.
If the underpaid tax is not paid within the stipulated time
period, the DGT may undertake the following steps as part
of the execution of the Distress Warrant:
a. Issue a Warning Letter (Surat Teguran) if the
underpaid tax is not settled within seven days of
the due date;
b. Issue a Distress Warrant if the underpaid tax is not
settled within 21 days of the issuing of the Warning
Letter;
c. Issue a Conscation Order (Surat Sita) if the
underpaid tax is not settled within 48 hours of the
issuing of the Distress Warrant;
d. Publish an auction announcement with respect to the
conscated assets if the underpaid tax is not settled
within 14 days of the issuing of the Conscation Order;
e. Undertake a public auction if the underpaid tax is not
settled within 14 days of the auction announcement.
112 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Dispute and Resolution
Tax Dispute and Resolution
A tax dispute between a taxpayer and the DGT will typically
arise following the issuance of an SKP by the DGT which
the taxpayer disputes. An SKPKB, an SKPKBT, and an STP
constitute legal tax collection instruments on the basis of
which the DGT may issue a Distress Warrant if the taxpayer
fails to settle the underpaid tax on time.
The ways available to resolve such tax disputes are as
follows:
Objections
A taxpayer who does not agree with an SKP can submit
an Objection (Keberatan) to the DGT within three months
of the date of issue of the SKP. The Objection must state
the amount the taxpayer has calculated as the tax due and
set out the reasons for its disagreement with the DGT tax
assessment.
The DGT has to issue a decision on the tax Objection within
12 months of the ling date of the Objection. If no decision
is issued by the DGT within 12 months, the Objection is
automatically deemed approved by the DGT.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 113
Tax Dispute and Resolution
If the Objection is rejected by the DGT, any underpayment
is subject to a surcharge of 30%. However, the underpaid
tax and the surcharge are not payable if the taxpayer les
an Appeal with the Tax Court in respect of the Objection
Decision.
An Objection may also be led by a taxpayer with the DGT
ofce with respect to tax withheld by a third party. The same
time limits on ling the Objection and for the DGT’s decision
apply to this type of Objection.
Appeals
A taxpayer who does not accept the DGT’s Objection
Decision can le an Appeal (Banding) with the Tax Court
within three months of the receipt of the DGT Objection.
To the extent that the DGT Objection Decision calls for a
payment of tax due, according to the Tax Court Law, at least
50% of the tax due must be settled before ling the Appeal.
The Tax Court will typically have to decide on an Appeal
within 12 months. Any underpaid tax resulting from the Tax
Court Decision is subject to a surcharge of 60%.
Other avenues for tax dispute resolution
The DGT, following a taxpayer’s Correction Request, or
by virtue of its ofcial position (ex-ofcio), may correct
or cancel an SKP, an STP, or their derivatives issued on
the basis of those letters. The derivatives include, among
others:
114 Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 PwC Indonesia
Tax Dispute and Resolution
Objection Decision Letters;
Decision Letters on the Reduction or Cancellation of
Administrative Sanctions;
Decision Letters on the Reduction or Cancellation of
Tax Assessment;
Decision Letters on an Early Refund of Overpaid Tax.
The DGT must issue a decision on a Correction Request
within six months of the date of ling. If no decision is
issued by the DGT within six months, the Correction
Request is automatically deemed to have been approved by
the DGT.
Taxpayers who do not (fully) accept the DGT Decision on
a Correction Request can le a Lawsuit (Gugatan) with the
Tax Court within 30 days of the receipt of the DGT Decision.
A Lawsuit against the DGT can also be led with the Tax
Court for the execution of Distress Warrant. In this case,
the Lawsuit must be led no later than 14 days after the
execution date.
The Tax Court must decide on a Lawsuit within six months.
PwC Indonesia Indonesian Pocket Tax Book 2024 115
Tax Dispute and Resolution
Judicial Review Requests to the Supreme Court
A Tax Court Decision is considered to be a nal decision
with full legal force. However, the parties involved in a tax
dispute may le a Judicial Review Request (Peninjauan
Kembali/PK) on a Tax Court Decision with the Supreme
Court. This can be done only if any of the following
conditions prevail:
1. The Decision has been based on a perjury, a deception,
or false evidence on the part of the opposing party;
2. A piece of important written evidence is found which,
had it been considered previously, would have led to a
different Decision;
3. Some part of the claim has been ignored without
reason;
4. Something which was not demanded was granted;
5. The Decision is clearly inconsistent with prevailing tax
regulations.
A Judicial Review Request must be led with the Supreme
Court within an allowable request time limit. For conditions
1 and 2, the time limit is three months after the condition is
identied. For conditions 3, 4 and 5, the time limit is three
months after the Tax Court decision.
Any underpaid tax resulting from the Supreme Court
Decision is subject to a surcharge of 60%.
