The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) under the Ministry of Finance\nis currently discussing options to extend the annual personal income tax\nreturn (SPT) filing deadline for individual taxpayers. The extension is\nbeing considered because the current filing deadline coincides with the\nshared holiday period for Eid al-Fitr.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe matter is still under discussion,\u201d said Inge Diana Rismawanti,\nDirector of Education, Services and Public Relations at the DJP, to CNBC\nIndonesia on Tuesday (17 March 2026).<\/p>\n
The DJP\u2019s Director General, Bimo Wijayanto, previously stated that an\nevaluation would be conducted approximately one week before Eid. If the\nfiling trend data shows positive growth, the reporting deadline would\nlikely remain unchanged.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will assess the situation one week before Eid. If the filing\ngraph shows positive growth, the deadline for individual taxpayers will\nlikely remain as scheduled,\u201d Bimo told journalists at the Dhanapala\nTower in Central Jakarta on Tuesday (10 March 2026).<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, Bimo emphasised that the DJP has prepared contingency\nmeasures should an extension prove necessary. He added that any such\nproposal would first be submitted to the Minister of Finance for\napproval.<\/p>\n
\u201cHowever, we are ready with contingency plans depending on our level\nof confidence one week before Eid. I will then present the matter to the\nMinister to request permission,\u201d he said.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/djp-option-to-extend-annual-tax-return-filing-deadline-still-under-discussion-1773723187", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
