Indonesia To Place Tax Officers In Overseas Embassies,
by Mary Swire, Tax-News.com, Hong Kong
Tuesday, August 24, 2010
As part of the government’s drive to increase budgetary revenue, its
Tax Director General, Mochammad Tjiptardjo, has disclosed a plan to place tax
officials in Indonesia’s embassies in selected countries.
Tjiptardjo has to raise tax collections significantly next year to meet the
budgetary targets. Tax revenue is forecast to increase by 13% in 2011, and that
will have to be achieved mainly through tax administration measures and action
against tax evaders.
As part of the latter, he has disclosed that his office and the Ministry of
Foreign Affairs have been talking about the possibility of putting tax officials,
in 2011, into Indonesia’s embassies abroad. The objective would be to
increase revenue from Indonesian taxpayers with assets or operations abroad,
through the means of increased international cooperation and tax information
exchange between tax agencies.
Tjiptardjo has disclosed that 15 officials are already undergoing training
to be ready for their assignments. The countries in which those tax intelligence
officers will be placed have not yet been announced, but Singapore, Hong Kong,
Japan, the United States, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom have previously
been mentioned.
