Indonesia VAT Rates 2026

Indonesia levies Value Added Tax as PPN (Pajak Pertambahan Nilai). The standard rate is 11%, applied to most goods and services. Indonesia applies a single flat rate with no reduced rates.

Rate update

The statutory PPN rate became 12% in January 2025, but a reduced tax base (11/12 of the selling price) keeps the effective rate at 11% for all non-luxury goods and services. Only luxury goods bear the full 12%.

Applying the correct rate in code

For B2B sales to Indonesia, validate the customer's NPWP first — a verified registration is typically required for correct invoicing and zero-rated exports. For B2C, charge the Indonesia VAT rate where registration rules require it.

Node.js
// 1. Validate the customer's Indonesia tax ID
const check = await fetch(
  'http://localhost:3000/api/v1/validate/ID/CUSTOMER_TAX_ID',
  { headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' } }
).then(r => r.json());

// 2. Fetch current Indonesia VAT rates (no auth required)
const rates = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/v1/rates/ID').then(r => r.json());
// → { standard_rate: 11, reduced_rates: [0] }

// 3. Apply the correct treatment for your supply
applyRate(check.valid && isB2BExport ? 0 : rates.standard_rate);

About Indonesia VAT

Indonesia's 2025 VAT change is a study in political compromise: the statutory PPN rate rose to 12%, but a last-minute regulation set the tax base at 11/12 of the price for everything except luxury goods, leaving the effective rate at 11% for ordinary purchases. The PKP registration threshold of IDR 4.8 billion is among the highest in the world relative to income. Foreign digital platforms have collected PPN on sales to Indonesian consumers since 2020.

VAT in Indonesia is administered by the Direktorat Jenderal Pajak (DJP). Before applying any zero-rate or exemption to a Indonesia business customer, validate their registration first.
