The government issued the implementing regulation concerning the final tax rate for MSME Entrepreneurs. Such regulation is stated in Regulation of Minister of Finance (PMK) Number 164 Year 2023 which has been ratified and officially enacted since 29 December 2023. What are the key rules? Lat’s take a peek at the infographic below.
Imposition of 0.5% Final Income Tax Rate
Not all MSME entrepreneurs are subject to the final income tax rate of 0.5%. Such rate is only imposed on entrepreneurs who have gross turnover above IDR500,000,000 (five hundred million rupiah) up to IDR4,800,000,000 (four point eight billion rupiah) in a year.
MSME entrepreneurs with income under IDR500,000,000 in a year are not subject to tax rules, while entrepreneurs with gross turnover above IDR4,800,000,000 in a year are subject to general provision rates, which means they are not regulated through PMK Number 164 Year 2023.
In general, the provision of the final income tax rate is optional. Entrepreneurs who meet the criteria for the gross circulation range in a year are still allowed to choose if their business wants to be subject to rates in accordance with the general provisions. In addition, the regulation is also only binding within this period.
