Effective 01 January 2009, Fiscal Fees Waived for Registered Tax Payers and Increased 250% for Those Choosing Not to Obtain a NPWP
New Year’s Day 2009 marked the introduction of a major change in the government’s policy on the fiscal tax charges to local residents and Indonesian nationals.
The Rp. 1 million (US$90) formerly charge to residents and Indonesian citizens has been eliminated for those in possession of an official tax number (NPWP) and increased to Rp. 2.5 million (US$225) for those without a tax number.
According to the Jakarta Post, the tax office has been undertaking rehearsal drills to minimize inconvenience during the introduction of the change in fiscal tax policy.
Separate channels have been set up for individuals who must pay the new tax rates and those eligible for the new exemption. According to the Jakarta Post, information pamphlets have also been prepared to guide the public.
