DJP aims to finish audits and tax receivables before year‑end

The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) announced a goal to complete audits and collect tax receivables before the end of 2025. So far, the outstanding tax balance has risen to IDR 139.83 trillion, with repayments amounting to IDR 81.29 trillion.

Bimo Wijayanto explained that collection will be carried out through persuasive and active actions, and the net tax receivable for 2024 stands at IDR 35.25 trillion according to the Central Government Financial Report. The government is also preparing tax incentives that meet the Qualified Refundable Tax Credit (QRTC) or cash subsidy criteria to comply with the Global Minimum Tax (GloBE) rules.

Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa expects the Coretax system to be fully operational soon, which should streamline tax administration for taxpayers, including the palm‑oil industry. DJP and the Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) have created a task force to implement MUI’s tax fatwa, aiming to enhance fiscal fairness.
