JAKARTA.  The Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) will release the e-Invoice (e-Faktur) version 3.0 application nationwide, on 1 October 2020. The existence of this latest version of the e-invoice application is expected to make it easier for taxpayers to carry out their obligations.

In this application there are several new features available.  Some of these new features include prepopulated input taxes, in the form of import declaration (PIB), prepopulated input taxes in the form of e-invoices, prepopulated VAT refunds, synchronization of stamp codes on the e-invoice application, and prepopulated tax return for the period of VAT.

With the prepopulated concept, VAT-Registered Persons (PKP) does not need to input tax data manually, because the system will provide the data. The concept has been used in the process of submitting an Annual Income Tax Return (SPT Tahunan PPh).
