Note! 3.23 Million ASN Pensioners Have Already Received THR; Here's Its Value
Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - Since 5 March 2026, PT Taspen (Persero) has officially begun distributing the Hari Raya allowance, THR 2026, to all pensioners, including civil servant retirees (ASN) such as PNS. The THR distribution is conducted simultaneously through the pension payment system integrated with 45 Taspen payment partners across Indonesia. In this year’s disbursement, Taspen will pay THR to 3,234,556 pensioners based on the income components paid in February 2026, comprising basic pension, family allowances, food allowances and additional income. The THR payments are not subject to deductions for contributions or other deductions, including pension loan deductions, except for income tax as applicable under law, which is borne by the Government. For pension recipients counted as of February 2026 or earlier whose first pension payment processing occurred after 25 February 2026, THR for 2026 will be paid starting 5 March 2026. Where a civil servant or pensioner is also a widow/widower recipient and/or a recipient of a widow/widower allowance, the THR is paid to both: to the recipient personally and as a widow/widower pensioner and/or as a widow/widower allowance recipient. Meanwhile for civil servants or pensioners who originate from civil servants after becoming pensioners of a state official or vice versa, only one THR is paid, equal to the larger amount. For civil servants and state officials whose pension is counted from 1 March 2026 onwards, THR payments for 2026 are carried out by the relevant Agency, as stated in Taspen’s press release. The government regulates THR payment procedures for ASN and their pensions in Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) RI Number 13 of 2026 concerning Technical Guidance for the Implementation of THR and the Thirteenth Salary for 2026 funded from the APBN. Under the regulation, THR payments to civil servants will be charged to the Budget Implementation List (DIPA) of each work unit. For non-structural bodies that are not work units (satker), payments are charged to the DIPA of the relevant ministry or its parent satker. THR is disbursed directly to the recipient’s bank account via a web-based payroll application.
