Depok-Every taxpayer (WP), whether individual or corporate, is required to report their Annual Tax Return (SPT) on time before the due date. This year, the deadline for reporting SPT is March 31, 2024. The Directorate General of Taxes (DJP) of the Indonesian Ministry of Finance noted that 5.41 million taxpayers had reported their annual tax returns as of February 28, 2024. The number of taxpayers reporting the 2024 SPT increased by around 1.63 percent compared to the same period last year.
In order to facilitate the public to understand the correct SPT reporting process, the Tax Administration study program, Vocational Education Program, Universitas Indonesia (UI) through the Tax Clinic is again holding Tax Action 2024. In collaboration with the UI Vocational Taxation Student Association (HMP), Tax Action 2024 aims to provide free consultations on filling out Annual Personal Income Tax Returns (Tax Year 2023).
This community service activity has been carried out regularly for the last eleven years. The consultation assistance was provided by five lecturers and 89 Tax Administration students on a voluntary basis, who provided assistance and consultation on filling out SPT for UI academics and the non-UI community (general).
