Indonesia applies a self-assessment tax system: every company is responsible for registering, calculating, paying and reporting its own taxes, while the Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) reviews and audits those filings. For foreign-owned companies in particular, the mix of corporate income tax, withholding taxes and VAT, combined with frequent regulatory updates, makes tax one of the most demanding parts of operating in Indonesia.

Our team works alongside your finance function so that obligations are met on time, filings are accurate and your tax position supports your business plans instead of slowing them down.

  • Tax registration for new entities, including VAT registration when required
  • Monthly and annual tax calculation and reporting
  • Tax planning for new investments, transactions and group structures
  • Tax incentive and transfer pricing reviews
  • Support during tax audits and disputes
