The DGT has issued Decision No. KEP-269/PJ/2020 dated 10 June 2020 concerning Designation of Tax Withholders Obliged to Withhold and Submit Article 23/26 Withholding Tax (“WHT”) based on DGT regulation No. PER-04/PJ/2017. The main points of this regulation are summarized as follows:
- The DGT requires all Taxable Entrepreneurs (“PKP”) that act as Art. 23/26 withholders to withhold tax, provide tax withholding slips, and submit Art. 23/26 WHT Returns based on DGT regulation No. PER-04/PJ/2017 starting from the August 2020 tax period.
- Even if the taxpayer is no longer registered as a PKP, the obligations to withhold tax, provide tax withholding slips, and submit Art. 23/26 WHT Returns as stated in Point 1 will still apply.
- For a taxpayer that register as a PKP after KEP-269/PJ/2020 is issued, the obligations to withhold tax, provide tax withholding slips, and submit Art. 23/26 WHT Returns will start from the date of registration.
