Tax Office Extends Deadline for Corporate Income Tax Annual Returns until 31 May 2026

JAKARTA - The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) has officially extended the deadline for reporting the Annual Notification Letter (SPT) for Corporate Income Tax (PPh) until 31 May 2026.

DJP Director General Bimo Wijayanto stated that this policy was implemented in response to the high demand for relaxation from taxpayers and to provide additional time for the reporting process.

“This morning, I sought guidance from Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa, and he instructed us to consider relaxing the submission of the annual corporate PPh SPT. We are processing this extension and will release it soon,” Bimo said during a press conference at the Central Jakarta Madya Tax Office on Thursday (30 April 2026).

“So today, we have decided this given the numerous requests for extension. There are about 4,000 requests from corporate taxpayers for relaxation,” he explained.

With this extension, DJP hopes that taxpayers can submit their SPTs more completely and accurately.

“Hopefully, this provides more certainty for taxpayers and additional time to prepare everything needed, including the completeness of calculations and other administrative requirements,” he said.

Bimo also emphasised that the relaxation decision still considers the state revenue targets.

“As for extending payment relaxation, we are calculating and analysing it first, and we will announce it soon after our analysis is final,” Bimo stated.

Meanwhile, tax revenue performance up to the end of April is still showing a positive trend.

With this policy, DJP hopes the corporate annual SPT reporting process can run more optimally without disrupting state revenue performance.
