Progressive Tax: Definition, Fees, and How to Calculate It

There are various types of taxes that apply in Indonesia. One of them is a progressive tax for motor vehicle owners.

The existence of this tax is deliberately imposed to reduce the number of existing motorized vehicles and reduce the number of traffic jams that are common in urban areas.

What is the progressive tax rate and how is it calculated? Read more in the following description.

 

What is Progressive Vehicle Tax?

What is a progressive tax? A progressive tax is a tax rate imposed on motorized vehicle owners with a percentage based on the number of tax objects and the amount of the object's value.

A progressive tax is imposed for people who have more than one vehicle with the same type of vehicle, owner's name, and address. In other words, the more the number of vehicles owned, the greater the value of the vehicle tax that must be paid. This type of tax is often referred to as a multilevel tax.

So, if you have 2 motorbikes or cars, then this tiered tax can certainly apply. Likewise with the ownership of 4 cars with different names but the same residential address or combined in one Family Card (KK), then the second to fourth cars are subject to this tax.

Progressive taxes also apply to old vehicles that have been sold but have not been renamed and you already have a new vehicle. Therefore, before you decide to buy a new vehicle, be sure to immediately reverse the name of your old vehicle that has been sold.

Progressive tax does not apply if you have 1 car and 1 motorbike. In addition, TNI/Polri motorized vehicles, ambulances, hearses, public transportation, fire engines, government vehicles, and vehicles for social and religious institutions are not taxed at this level.

How to Calculate Progressive Vehicle Tax

Calculating progressive taxes is based on 4 important things

  • Selling Value of Motorized Vehicles (NJKB)
  • Value of Motorized Vehicle Tax (PKB)
  • Progressive Tax Value
  • Compulsory Road Traffic Accident Fund Contribution (SWDKLLJ)

The following is an example of a multilevel or progressive vehicle tax calculation to make it easier for you to calculate it.

For example, you have 2 cars and live in Jakarta. Both cars were purchased in the same year. The first car has a breakdown of taxes and other fees as below.

  • Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB) at the STNK of IDR 2,700,000 and SWDKLLJ IDR 153,000
  • Motor Vehicle Sales Value (NJKB) = (Rp. 2,700,000:2) X 100 = Rp. 135,000,000

If you want to find out how much the tax rate is, then the calculation is:

PKB: IDR 135,000,000 X 2% = IDR 2,700,000

SWDKLLJ: IDR 153,000

Progressive Tax Amount: IDR 2,700,000 + IDR 153,000 = IDR 2,853,000

So, the tax rate for your first car is IDR 2,853.00.

 

As for the second car, which has a price of IDR 120 million, the calculation is:

PKB: IDR 120,000,000 X 2.5% = IDR 3,000,000

SWDKLLJ: IDR 153,000

Progressive Tax Amount: IDR 3,000,000 + IDR 153,000 = IDR 3,153,000

From the results of the calculation above, the second vehicle tax is IDR 3,153,000.

The calculation method above applies to motorized vehicles, whether it's a car or a third, fourth, and so on a motorcycle. From these calculations, it can also be seen if the tax value will increase in line with the increase in motorized vehicles that you have.
