Monthly Tax Reporting
- Share:
Paying your taxes in Indonesia usually involves a couple of steps. You’ll typically send your tax payments to the government through a designated bank, sometimes called a “bank persepsi.” Then, you’ll officially record everything with the tax office (DGT) by filing the necessary tax returns.
One important part of this process is monthly tax reporting. If you’re running a business in Indonesia, you’re required to file a monthly income tax report, even if your company hasn’t made any money yet. It’s a legal requirement, so it’s important to stay on top of it.
