Recap

To accommodate and implement the Yearly Tax Calculation in accordance with Indonesian regulations, Government Regulation (PP) No. 58 of 2023 and Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) No. 168 of 2023, The calculation of Income Tax Article 21 (PPh Article 21) is performed using the Monthly Effective Tax Rate (TER Bulanan).

For the final tax period, either at the end of the year or in the tax period in which an employee ceases employment, the tax calculation is performed using the progressive income tax rates as stipulated in Article 17 of the Income Tax Law.

In addition, companies can access the Annual Recap, which helps to:

  • Review total annual income and accumulated tax per employee
  • Support year-end tax reconciliation
  • Generate official tax documents such as Form 1721-A1 or SPT

NOTE

The Annual Recap is specifically applied for Indonesian tax reporting and is used for tax withholding purposes.

Annual Recap

View from Annual Recap

The annual income summary automatically calculates the accumulated income tax for the selected year based on:

  • Payroll reports that have been set to Paid
  • The period during which the employee’s contract is active at your property

In the Annual Recap, the system accumulates income tax from all Paid payroll reports within the selected year.

Example:

  • If an employee joined your property in September, the calculation will start from Month 9.
  • If the employee’s last salary was paid in November, the calculation will end at Month 11.

This ensures that the annual tax calculation reflects only the employee’s active working period within your company.

In this view, you can also filter the data by employee name and download the annual recap report.
