Title: Indonesia‘s Motor Vehicle Owners Face Two New Taxes Starting Today
Effective today, January 5, 2025, Indonesian motor vehicle owners are bracing for two new taxes outlined in the Government Regulation No. 1/2022 concerning State Financial Balance between the Central and Regional Governments.
The first tax is an additional tax (tax on top of the existing tax) for Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB), and the second is an additional tax for Motor Vehicle Ownership Fee (BBNKB). Both taxes will be integrated into the Annual Motor Vehicle Tax column on the Vehicle Registration Certificate (STNK).
With these additions, there will be a total of seven components that motor vehicle owners need to pay while registering a new vehicle: BBNKB, additional BBNKB, PKB, additional PKB, Donations to Disaster Emergency Logistics Agencies (SWDKLLJ), Vehicle Registration Admission, and Motor Vehicle Tax Admission Fees.
As a result, motor vehicle STNKs will have two additional biometric cost columns, which could potentially increase the cost of motorcycle ownership.
The additional PKB and BBNKB tariffs are set at 66% of the respective).]
For instance, if a motor vehicle is currently charged a PKB of Rp1,000,000, the additional PKB tariff would be Rp660,000 (66%), increasing the overall PKB to Rp1,660,000.
These new taxes must be paid concurrently with the regular Motor Vehicle Tax.
