How to File Your Annual SPT via DJP Coretax: A Step-by-Step Guide

The DJP provides an online annual tax return (SPT) reporting service through the Coretax system. Through this system, taxpayers (WP) can submit their tax reports without having to visit a tax office. Online SPT reporting forms part of the government’s tax administration transformation to facilitate services for taxpayers. The Coretax system is expected to make the reporting process faster, more integrated, and accurate. Moreover, the entire process is conducted digitally so documents and reporting evidence can be received directly by taxpayers via the system. Therefore, taxpayers must ensure the data entered is correct so the reporting process runs smoothly. According to the DJP, a Taxpayer is an individual or entity, including taxpayers, tax withholders, and tax collectors, who have the rights and obligations of taxation in accordance with tax laws. Taxpayers include individual taxpayers; undivided inheritance taxpayers; corporate taxpayers; and Government agencies designated as withholders and/or collectors of tax in accordance with tax laws.
