Dominated by Automatic Matching

Of the number of NIK-NPWPs that have been matched, only 4.32 million were done independently. While the rest is done automatically through the system.

Meanwhile, quoting cnbcindonesia.com, the Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) revealed that 681,000 NIKs have not been matched.  Therefore, DGT urges taxpayers who have not, to immediately do the NIK-NPWP matching independently.

Self Verification

The reason is, some data need to be confirmed and verified independently by the Taxpayer. If, until the deadline, the NIK-NPWP matching has not been done, taxpayers will have difficulties in accessing tax services. Here are some services that require the NPWP:

1. government fund disbursement services; 
2. export and import services
3. banking services and other financial sectors; 
4. business entity establishment and business licensing services; 
5. government administration services other than those organized by the DGT; and 
6. other services that require the use of NPWP.

To do the matching, here are some steps that taxpayers need to take. 

1. Taxpayers can access the djponline.pajak.go.id page, and then log in by entering the NPWP, password, and security code.
2. Open the profile menu, then select Profile Data then select the Main Data tab.
3. In the Main Data tab, enter the 16-digit NPWP that matches the e-KTP, then click the Validate button.
4. Wait until the process of matching DGT data with the Directorate General of Population and Civil Registration (Dukcapil) server is complete.
5. If the results of the NIK data matching match, a notification will appear "data found, then select OK to continue.
6. Click Change Profile, then the taxpayer is logged out.
7. Try to log in using NIK, if successful, the matching is complete.

For information, the provisions regarding NIK-NPWP matching are contained in Law Number 7 of 2021 concerning Harmonization of Tax Regulations (HPP).

While the technical provisions are regulated in Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 112/PMK/03/2022 which was released on 8 July 2022.

With the use of NIK as NPWP, the government is trying to realize the Single Identity Number, one identity for various administrative purposes. (ASP/KEN)
