ID Bookkeeping

Indonesia Bookkeeping (Pembukuan & NPPN) Skill v1.0

"Pembukuan" = full books. "Pencatatan" = simple records (NPPN electors). "Norma Penghitungan Penghasilan Neto" (NPPN) = deemed-deduction norm: Net Income = NPPN% × Gross Turnover, where NPPN% is set by KLU industry code.

This skill classifies money movements. It does NOT compute the tax. For PPh Orang Pribadi (individual) calculations see id-income-tax. For PPh Badan (corporate) calculations see id-corporate-tax. For PPN see indonesia-vat.

• Decision tree — Badan (PT, CV, koperasi, yayasan, BUT)? ├── YES → MANDATORY Pembukuan. SPT 1771. No NPPN option. │ PP 23 unavailable for PT after 3 yrs / CV after 4 yrs (PP 55/2022). └── NO (orang pribadi): prior-year gross turnover from usaha/pekerjaan bebas? ├── > IDR 4.8b → MANDATORY Pembukuan.

Switching regimes

Switching regimes

From	To	Allowed?
Pembukuan	NPPN	NO without DJP approval; Pasal 28 ayat 5 + KEP-536/PJ./2000 art. 3. Once full books have been elected they must continue.
NPPN	Pembukuan	YES — taxpayer can always upgrade to full books at the start of the next tax year. Notify DJP.
Either	PP 23 final tax	Annual election by 31 March of the tax year (PMK 99/PMK.03/2018 as amended).

Conservative default: if the prior-year turnover is unknown or border-line at IDR 4.8b, treat the client as having a pembukuan obligation and request the prior SPT and gross-turnover reconciliation before classifying.

What "pembukuan" means

• Pembukuan definition — Full double-entry bookkeeping producing, at minimum: general ledger + subsidiary ledgers (cash, A/R, A/P, inventory, fixed assets), trial balance, P&L (Laporan Laba Rugi), balance sheet (Neraca), and supporting documents (faktur, kuitansi, bukti potong, bank statements) linked to journal entries. Pasal 28(3) UU KUP requires good-faith books reflecting actual business condition. Pasal 28(7) requires Bahasa Indonesia, Latin alphabet, Arabic numerals, and IDR currency, with bilingual / USD permitted only on prior DJP approval (PMK 196/2007). (Pasal 28(3), 28(7) UU KUP; PMK 196/2007)

Who must keep pembukuan

• Who must keep pembukuan — 1. All badan (PT, CV, firma, koperasi, BUMN/BUMD, yayasan conducting business). No turnover threshold. 2. Orang pribadi conducting usaha or pekerjaan bebas with prior-year gross turnover > IDR 4.8b (Pasal 28(2) UU KUP). (Pasal 28(2) UU KUP)

Cash vs accrual

• Cash vs accrual election — Pasal 28(5) UU KUP allows either basis; whichever is elected must be applied consistently and a change requires DJP written approval. Inventory must be valued FIFO or weighted-average (Pasal 10(6)); LIFO is prohibited. Conservative default: if the basis is undocumented, ASSUME accrual and flag for confirmation. (Pasal 28(5) UU KUP; Pasal 10(6) UU PPh)

Record retention

• Record retention — 10 years from the end of the relevant tax year (Pasal 28(11) UU KUP) -- longer than the 5-year assessment SOL (Pasal 13) to cover criminal-procedure timelines. (Pasal 28(11) UU KUP; Pasal 13 UU KUP)

Mechanic

• NPPN mechanic — Net Income (Penghasilan Neto) = NPPN% × Gross Turnover (Peredaran Bruto) The NPPN% varies by KLU industry code and by region tier (the historical KEP-536/PJ./2000 schedule distinguishes "10 ibukota provinsi", "ibukota provinsi lain", and "daerah lainnya" -- often abbreviated tier 1 / tier 2 / tier 3). The taxpayer does NOT separately claim any business expenses; the NPPN% IS the deemed expense deduction. (KEP-536/PJ./2000)

Eligibility

• NPPN eligibility — - Orang pribadi only (no badan). - Prior-year gross turnover ≤ IDR 4.8 billion (Pasal 14 ayat 2 UU PPh, threshold set by PMK 17/PMK.03/2013 and successor instruments aligned with the pembukuan threshold). - Written notification to DJP within 3 months of the start of the tax year (Pasal 14 ayat 2; procedurally PER-17/PJ/2015). - Pencatatan (simple records of gross turnover) must still be kept. (Pasal 14 ayat 2 UU PPh; PMK 17/PMK.03/2013; PER-17/PJ/2015)

What "pencatatan" requires

• Pencatatan requirement — A daily log of gross receipts by month, supported by invoices / receipts. No expense ledger is required because no expenses are deducted. Income from outside the business (employment, dividend, rental) is added separately to total taxable income.

Non-creditable input VAT under NPPN

• Non-creditable input VAT under NPPN — Because the NPPN taxpayer is not deducting actual expenses, input VAT on purchases is also not creditable for PPh purposes -- the NPPN% is gross-of-input-VAT. (Input VAT crediting under PPN itself depends on PKP status, which is a separate question handled by indonesia-vat.)

Failure-to-keep-books uplift

• Failure-to-keep-books uplift — Pasal 14 ayat 5 UU PPh -- if a taxpayer is required to keep books but does not, or refuses to produce them on inspection, DJP may apply the NPPN% to gross turnover AND add a 50% uplift to the resulting taxable income (or 20% for individuals subject to other Pasal 14 conditions; the 50% applies to badan under jabatan assessment). Conservative reading: any non-NPPN-electing taxpayer without books faces the uplift. (Pasal 14 ayat 5 UU PPh)

Section 6 -- Sample KLU NPPN Coefficients

CAUTION. The coefficients below are illustrative samples drawn from KEP-536/PJ./2000. Two warnings:

1. KEP-536/PJ./2000 was issued under the pre-2008 PPh law and uses the old 9-digit KLU. The DJP has migrated to the 5-digit KBLI 2020. You MUST confirm the exact NPPN% applicable to the client's current 5-digit KBLI code in the latest KEP / PER published on www.pajak.go.id before signing off any return.
2. The KEP-536 schedule distinguishes three regional tiers (10 ibukota provinsi -- typically the highest %; other ibukota -- middle; daerah lainnya -- lowest). The samples below show the 10-ibukota tier. Adjust for the client's actual domicile tier.

Where a coefficient cannot be confirmed in the current schedule, write "TBC -- see current KLU table" in the working paper and trigger R-ID-7.

Sample KLU NPPN Coefficients (KEP-536/PJ./2000)

Activity	KBLI	Indicative NPPN% (tier 1)
Retail trade -- food & beverages (perdagangan eceran)	47111	~30% (TBC)
Retail trade -- clothing	47711	~30% (TBC)
Online retail seller (e-commerce)	47911	~30% (TBC -- post-KEP-536 KBLI; use retail proxy)
Restaurants & cafés (restoran)	56101	~25% (TBC)
Construction -- residential building	41011	~20-25% (TBC)
Land transport -- taxi / ride-hail	49429	~20% (TBC)
Vehicle rental without driver	77100	~25% (TBC)
Hairdressing & beauty (salon)	96021	~40% (TBC)
Doctor (specialist, private practice)	86202	~50% (TBC)
Lawyer / advocate (pengacara)	69100	~50% (TBC)
Notary / PPAT	69200	~50% (TBC)
Accountant / tax consultant	69201/69202	~50% (TBC)
Architect	71101	~50% (TBC)
Software developer / freelance IT	62010	~50% (TBC -- pekerjaan bebas)
Independent author / journalist	90001	~50% (TBC)
Manufacture -- garments	14111	~12.5-15% (TBC)
Repair of motor vehicles	45201	~20% (TBC)
Educational tutoring (private)	85490	~35% (TBC)
Photography services	74201	~50% (TBC)

Conservative default: when two KBLI codes plausibly fit a client's activity and one has a higher NPPN% than the other, apply the higher percentage (= higher deemed income = higher tax). Document the choice in the working paper and let the reviewer relax it if they disagree.

Mixed activities

• Mixed activities — If a taxpayer has multiple distinct revenue streams (e.g. a freelance accountant who also runs an Etsy shop), apply the NPPN% separately to each stream's gross turnover. Pasal 14 ayat 3 UU PPh and PER-17/PJ/2015 art. 4 require segregated pencatatan by activity. (Pasal 14 ayat 3 UU PPh; PER-17/PJ/2015 art. 4)

Section 7 -- Transaction Classification

How to map a bank statement line to an SPT line

• Mapping procedure — For each inflow/outflow: 1. Identify the counterparty and the underlying transaction (look at description, reference, invoice). 2. Decide which classification bucket it belongs to (table below). 3. Map to the SPT 1770 (individual) or SPT 1771 (corporate) line. 4. Tag any PPN component (recoverable / non-recoverable / out of scope). 5. Tag any PPh withholding that should have been or was applied. 6. Flag conservative defaults and "Needs Input" lines per the foundation contract.

Section 8 -- Pasal 9 UU PPh: Non-Deductible Expenses

These items are NEVER deductible for either OP (pembukuan) or badan. If they appear in the books, classify them as koreksi fiskal positif (positive fiscal adjustment / add-back) when computing taxable income.

Pasal 9(1) Non-Deductible Expenses (Pasal 9(1) UU PPh)

Pasal 9(1)	Item	Notes
a	Profit distributions (dividen, prive, SHU)	Already taxed at entity level.
b	Personal-benefit expenses of shareholders/partners	Private vehicle, family travel, personal insurance.
c	Reserves & provisions	Exceptions for bank bad-debt, mining reclamation, forestry replanting, insurance technical reserve (PMK 81/2009).
d	Self-paid health/life/accident/endowment premiums (individual)	Employer-paid for employees may be deductible as compensation.
e	Benefits in kind (natura/kenikmatan)	Largely deductible post-UU HPP subject to PMK 66/2023 carve-outs; add back if no carve-out confirmed.
f	Excessive related-party compensation	Only arm's-length portion deductible.
g	Gifts, aid, donations	Exception: approved zakat / disaster relief.
h	PPh on taxpayer's own income	Never deductible. Third-party withholdings are credits, not expenses.
i	Personal living expenses	Private rent, groceries, school fees.
j	"Salary" to members of firma/CV (capital not in shares)	Treated as profit distribution.
k	Administrative tax penalties (UU KUP sanksi)	Always added back.

Conservative default: if a payment plausibly mixes personal and business use (vehicles, mobile phone, internet, partial home office), apportion using a reasonable business-use percentage and document the basis. If no basis can be documented, treat the entire amount as non-deductible.

Section 9 -- Worked Example

Scenario

Andi, an Indonesian individual resident, runs a freelance graphic-design practice. KLU/KBLI 74100 (specialised design activities) -- treated under pekerjaan bebas. Tax year 2025. He notified DJP on 28 February 2025 that he would use NPPN for 2025. His prior-year (2024) turnover was IDR 380 million, so he is eligible. Assume tier-1 NPPN% for design services is ~50% (TBC against current schedule).

Less: PTKP (TK/0 hypothetically -- IDR 54,000,000)	(54,000,000)
Penghasilan Kena Pajak	NIL (loss carried forward NOT allowed under NPPN -- pencatatan does not produce a fiscal loss; Pasal 6 ayat 2 UU PPh only allows loss carryforward where pembukuan is kept)
PPh credits to claim	PPh 23 IDR 877,000 (370k + 500k+ 7k rounding) + PPh 25 IDR 1,200,000 -- may produce a refund (lebih bayar)

This worked example is for illustration only. The actual rate, PTKP, and percentages must be computed in id-income-tax.

Section 10 -- Conservative Defaults (Recap)

Conservative Defaults (Recap)

Situation	Default
Turnover threshold ambiguous	Treat as pembukuan-required
Cash vs accrual ambiguous	Accrual
KLU has two plausible matches with different NPPN%	Use the higher %
Expense plausibly mixed personal/business with no documentation	Treat fully non-deductible
NPPN notification cannot be located in the file	Assume NOT validly elected -- treat as pembukuan and flag uplift risk under Pasal 14(5)
Income type unclear (final-tax vs ordinary)	Treat as ordinary (higher likely tax) and flag for reviewer
Foreign-currency receipt	Translate at the BI tengah-rate on receipt date; flag if BI rate not available
Inventory valuation method undocumented	Assume weighted-average
Bukti potong PPh 23/22/4(2) cannot be located	Do NOT claim the credit until obtained; revenue is still declared gross
Capex vs revex unclear (item between IDR 0 and IDR 1m useful life > 1 yr)	Capitalise. (Pasal 11 has no de-minimis; reviewer can expense.)

Verification status: All citations above are statutory or PMK-level references that were operative at the time of drafting (tax year 2025). The NPPN coefficient table in Section 6 is illustrative; before signing off any return that relies on a specific NPPN%, the reviewer must confirm the current coefficient in the latest DJP-published instrument for the client's exact 5-digit KBLI and regional tier.

Section 12 -- Output Contract

When this skill is invoked to classify a transaction set, produce:

1. Working paper (CSV or table) -- one row per transaction with columns: date, counterparty, amount IDR, classification bucket, SPT 1770/1771 line, PPh withholding flag, PPN flag, conservative-default flag, evidence reference, reviewer note.
2. Regime summary -- pembukuan or NPPN; if NPPN, the KLU code used, the NPPN% applied, and the citation.
3. Reviewer brief -- list of "Needs Input" items and "Assumed" items with cash impact ranking per the foundation contract.
4. Sources block -- every cited Pasal / PMK / KEP that materially drove a classification.
5. Sign-off checklist -- pre-populated for the credentialed reviewer (Konsultan Pajak Bersertifikat / Akuntan Publik / Kuasa Hukum Pajak per UU Konsultan Pajak draft & PMK 111/PMK.03/2014).

No SPT figure leaves this skill without a numbered citation. No NPPN coefficient leaves this skill without a "TBC verified against current KEP/PER on [date]" note.
