Annual SPT Reporting Extended until 30 April 2026, Taxpayers Have More Time

The government has officially granted leniency to taxpayers. The annual SPT reporting for Individual Taxpayers (WP OP) has been extended until 30 April 2026, from the previous 31 March 2026. This policy was directly announced by Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa. With this extension, the public has more time to report their annual SPT and fulfil their tax reporting obligations without rushing. As a follow-up, the Ministry of Finance (Kemenkeu) will soon issue an official regulation in the form of a Circular Letter (SE) that serves as the basis for the SPT annual reporting extension policy. The Director General of Taxation, Bimo Wijayanto, stated that the situation is one of the factors causing many taxpayers to not yet report taxes on time. “What we are preparing is the provision of administrative sanction relief for the annual SPT PPh WP OP submitted after the 31 March deadline,” he said. He added that, in accordance with the General Provisions and Tax Procedures Law (UU KUP), the normal deadline for annual SPT reporting is at most three months after the end of the tax year, namely until 31 March.
