Finance Minister Purbaya Extends SPT Reporting Deadline to 30 April
Jakarta (ANTARA) -
Indonesia’s Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa has confirmed that the deadline for submitting Annual Tax Notification Letters (SPT) for Individual Taxpayers (WP OP) will be extended to 30 April 2026, from the original 31 March 2026.
The Ministry of Finance will soon issue an official regulation through a Circular Letter (SE) as the basis for this policy.
“(The SPT filing extension) to 31 April. Extended by one month,” said Purbaya at his office in Jakarta on Wednesday.
Previously, the Director General of Taxes, Bimo Wijayanto, had opened the option to extend the deadline for filing annual Income Tax (PPh) returns for individuals. This consideration arose because this year’s filing period coincides with the Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr holiday period.
On the same occasion, the Director of Dissemination, Services, and Public Relations of the DJP, Inge Diana Rismawanti, stated that extending the filing deadline remains an option under review ahead of the end of March 2026.
“Actually, what we are preparing is the provision of administrative sanction relief for annual PPh SPT submissions for WP OP after the 31 March deadline. In accordance with the KUP Law, the deadline for submitting annual Income Tax SPT for Individual Taxpayers is at most three months after the end of the tax year (31 March 2026),” she explained.
As is known, the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) recorded that 16,723,354 taxpayers have activated Coretax accounts as of 24 March 2026.
Of that number, 8,874,904 taxpayers have reported their annual SPT.
The breakdown of Coretax account activations consists of 15,677,209 individual taxpayers, 955,508 corporate taxpayers, 90,411 government agency taxpayers, and 226 Electronic System-Based Trading (PMSE) taxpayers.
Meanwhile, SPT reports based on the January-December 2025 fiscal year are recorded from 7,826,341 employee individual taxpayers, 863,272 non-employee individual taxpayers, 183,583 corporate taxpayers in rupiah, and 138 corporate taxpayers in US dollars.
For taxpayers with different fiscal years, SPT reports come from 1,549 corporate taxpayers in rupiah and 21 corporate taxpayers in US dollars.
