Jakarta Revenue Agency Opens Samsat Outlet at Jakarta Fair for Easier Tax Payment
The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government, through the DKI Jakarta Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda), is providing convenient motor vehicle tax payment services at the Jakarta Fair (Pekan Raya Jakarta or PRJ). Through the presence of a Samsat outlet in the PRJ area, the public can not only enjoy various entertainment, exhibitions, and culinary offerings but also directly pay their Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB) at the same location. This step is part of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government’s efforts to bring regional tax services closer to the public so they are more accessible and do not consume taxpayers’ time. The service is made even more beneficial by a programme waiving administrative sanctions for Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB) and Motor Vehicle Title Transfer Fee (BBNKB). The programme is running to celebrate the 499th anniversary of Jakarta City, from 1 June to 31 August 2026. Through this policy, citizens with vehicle tax arrears can settle their obligations without late penalties. The policy is expected to ease the burden on taxpayers while increasing compliance with regional tax payments. This administrative sanction waiver programme presents a momentum that the public, particularly motor vehicle owners in Jakarta, can take advantage of to reorder their tax obligations. Besides helping to ease taxpayers’ burdens, this policy also encourages increased public compliance in paying regional taxes. As a form of appreciation, Bapenda DKI Jakarta is also giving exclusive souvenirs to citizens who pay their PKB at the PRJ Samsat outlet while supplies last. The presence of these souvenirs serves as recognition for taxpayers who have utilised the service and fulfilled their vehicle tax obligations. Beyond making it easier for the public, vehicle tax payments also play an important role in regional development. The taxes paid by citizens become one of the sources of regional revenue used to support development and improve public services in Jakarta. Bapenda DKI Jakarta invites the public to take advantage of the PKB and BBNKB administrative sanction waiver programme during the designated period. Citizens visiting the PRJ can visit the Samsat outlet to make PKB payments easily and practically while enjoying the atmosphere of the Jakarta Fair. With the presence of Samsat outlet services at the PRJ, Bapenda DKI Jakarta hopes citizens will find it increasingly easy to access regional tax services. This programme also serves as a reminder that paying vehicle tax is not just an administrative obligation but also a form of public contribution to supporting the development of Jakarta City.
