Post-Lebaran Holiday, 9.07 Million Taxpayers Recorded as Having Filed Annual Tax Returns
Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia - The Directorate General of Taxes under the Ministry of Finance has recorded 9,072,935 taxpayers who have submitted their annual tax returns (SPT) as of Wednesday, 25 March 2026.
In detail, the number of employee individual taxpayers who have filed is 7,993,396, while non-employee individual taxpayers number 891,594 for the fiscal year from January to December 2025.
Meanwhile, the number of corporate annual tax return filers is 186,216 in rupiah and 138 in US dollars.
Separately, the number of taxpayers with different fiscal years filing annual tax returns includes 1,570 corporate taxpayers in rupiah and 21 corporate taxpayers using US dollars.
On the other hand, the number of taxpayers who have activated their DJP Coretax accounts reaches 16,830,447. This consists of 15,782,719 individual taxpayers, 957,078 corporate taxpayers, 90,424 government agency taxpayers, and 226 digital economy taxpayers.
As is known, the initial deadline for individual taxpayers to file annual tax returns was 31 March 2026. However, Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa stated that the filing of annual tax notifications (SPT) for individual taxpayers would be extended until 31 April 2026.
He explained that the extension of the filing period, originally ending on 31 March 2026 for individual taxpayers, is due to the 2025 tax year filing period coinciding with the long holidays of Nyepi and Idulfitri or Lebaran 2026.
“So until 31 April, extended by one month because of the holidays,” said Purbaya at his office in Jakarta on Wednesday (25/3/2026).
In addition, due to the long holidays and the Lebaran homecoming period in the midst of society, Purbaya said that the extension of the deadline for individual taxpayer annual SPT filing also considers the Coretax system, which often still has minor issues related to loading.
“Some people experience that, so we’ll extend it,” Purbaya emphasised.
Meanwhile, the Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) of the Ministry of Finance revealed that the plan to implement the extension of the annual SPT filing deadline for individual taxpayers will also consider an evaluation of public filings until the end of March 2026.
DJP Director of Dissemination, Services, and Public Relations Inge Diana Rismawanti said that another option being considered is providing administrative sanction relief if the 2025 annual SPT filing for individual taxpayers exceeds the 31 March deadline.
She stated that the 31 March deadline for individual taxpayer income tax (PPh) annual SPT filing is actually in line with the provisions in the General Tax Provisions and Procedures Law (UU KUP). Under UU KUP, the provision is a maximum of three months after the end of the tax year.
“So what we are preparing is the provision of relaxation in the imposition of administrative sanctions for individual taxpayer PPh annual SPT submitted after the 31 March deadline,” Inge revealed.
