Indonesia TP Context

The Indonesian DGT enforces one of the strictest transfer pricing regimes in Southeast Asia. Under PMK-213/PMK.03/2016, taxpayers must follow the three-tiered BEPS documentation approach if specific gross turnover or transactional thresholds are met.

A unique feature of the Indonesian system is the mandatory TP Summary (Ikhtisar), which must be attached to the annual corporate income tax return. Failure to prepare contemporaneous documentation can lead to the rejection of the TP method and significant tax adjustments.

Key Regulatory Framework

PMK-213/2016

The cornerstone regulation defining documentation requirements, thresholds, and the 4-month rule for preparation.

Law No. 7/2021 (HPP)

Harmonization of Tax Regulations strengthening the DGT's authority to audit and adjust intercompany pricing.

PMK-172/2023

Consolidates rules for the implementation of the arm's length principle and dispute resolution (MAP/APA).

Mandatory Thresholds

▶ Local & Master File

Required for taxpayers exceeding IDR 50 Billion turnover.

Documentation is mandatory if:
• Annual gross turnover > IDR 50 Billion
• Affiliated transactions > IDR 20 Billion (tangibles)
• Affiliated transactions > IDR 5 Billion (services/interest/intangibles)

Documents must be available within 4 months after the end of the fiscal year.

▶ TP Summary (Ikhtisar)

Mandatory attachment for the Annual Tax Return (SPT).

The Ikhtisar is a condensed summary of the TP documentation. It must be signed and attached to the annual tax return filing.

Late preparation of the TP documentation is often detected through this summary, leading to potential administrative penalties and audit triggers.

▶ CbC Reporting

Threshold for groups over IDR 11 Trillion.

Indonesian parented MNEs with consolidated revenue ≥ IDR 11 Trillion must file a Country-by-Country Report.

Secondary filing may apply to Indonesian subsidiaries if the ultimate parent is in a jurisdiction that does not exchange information with Indonesia.
