Output Tax (Pajak Keluaran)
Output Tax (Pajak Keluaran) is the VAT that a PKP must collect when supplying taxable goods (BKP), taxable services (JKP), or exporting. Governed by Article 1 paragraph 25 of the VAT Law. Output Tax = DPP x applicable VAT rate. Collection must be evidenced by a Tax Invoice. The difference between Output Tax and Input Tax is either the amount to remit (if PK > PM) or the overpayment to claim back (if PM > PK).

VAT (Value Added Tax / PPN)
VAT (Pajak Pertambahan Nilai / PPN) is a tax levied on every supply of taxable goods (BKP) and/or taxable services (JKP) within Indonesia's customs area. Governed by Law No. 8/1983 on VAT, last amended by Law No. 7/2021 (UU HPP). The standard VAT rate is 11% since 1 April 2022, rising to 12% from 1 January 2025. PPN is an indirect tax: the economic burden falls on the final consumer, while the registered taxpayer (PKP) acts as a collector, remitting the difference between Output Tax (PK) and Input Tax (PM) to the state.
