Covid-19 Incentives Extended, Recipient Business Sectors are Trimmed


Once again, the government has extended the tax incentives provided for companies affected by the Covid-19 pandemic by six months until December 2021.

Some of the tax facilities whose validity period has been extended are:

  • Income Tax Article (ITA) 21 borne by the government (DTP)
  • Final Income Tax borne by the government,
  • Acceleration of VAT refunds,
  • Reduction of ITA 25 installments, and
  • Exemption of ITA 22 on Import

The incentive extension is contained in the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 82/PMK.03/2021, which revises the previous provisions (PMK Number 9/PMK.03/2021).

Business Classifications are Trimmed

However, the criteria for receiving tax incentives are trimmed. Practically only the recipients of incentives government-borne ITA 21 whose criteria are not changed, that is given to 1,189 Classification of Business Classifications (KLU)

The government through the Minister of Finance confirms that tax facilities will be provided selectively. That is only for business sectors that are considered to be still stranded and need to get support to recover.

In addition, the extension of the validity period of tax incentives also focus on fiscal capacity in supporting the strengthening of public health, while accelerating the national economic recovery.

The following are the criteria for KLU who are entitled to receive tax facilities until the tax period of December 2021:
