Annual Tax Reports Set by DGT when Pandemic Covid-19 – In early 2020, the Directorate General of Tax (DGT) prepares to welcome the annual routine, which is the receipt of the Annual Tax Return (SPT). In accordance with the principle of self assessment, taxpayers who meet subjective and objective requirements have an obligation to report the Annual Tax Return. But not this year especially in Indonesia, where Indonesia is experiencing a disaster, the Corona/Covid-19 Virus Outbreak. Where it causes constraints in the submission of the Annual Tax Return.

The Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) has appealed to all taxpayers both individuals and business entities to immediately report/submit their taxpayers in the form of annual notification (SPT) even though the deadline for submission was at the end of April 2020.

As we know, based on data on the official website of the Directorate General of Tax (DGT), as of May 1 2020 morning, the number of annual tax returns that have entered as many as 10.97 million. The number is still down around 9.43% compared to the realization in the same period last year, the figure is slightly higher at 12.11 million.

From the amount above the annual tax return that has been entered, electronic or online reporting still dominates at most 10.60 million or takes a share of 96.60%. Although the number of incoming SPTs fell 6.33%, the portion was already higher than last year which only reached 93.41%. Meanwhile, manual reporting was recorded at 372,897 or down 53.30% compared to the position as of 1 May 2019 of 798,475. The manual portion of annual SPT submission also shrank from 6.59% last year to 3.40% this year.

The Directorate General of Tax (DGT) will continue to provide consultation and guidance to taxpayers, amid a work from home (WFH) policy during the Covid-19 pandemic. For information, if you have not submitted/reported the annual tax return, you can still report the tax return with the consequences of being fined for late reporting/submission in the form of administrative sanctions (fines) of Rp. 100,000 (personal taxpayers) and Rp. 1 million (corporate taxpayers).
