If you’ve ever made a mistake when creating a Unification Tax Withholding Slip through DJP Online, you’re not alone. Many taxpayers have experienced similar issues—whether it’s entering the wrong NPWP, date, income type, or tax amount. Fortunately, DJP provides a secure and official cancellation feature.

This article will walk you through the process clearly, completely, and in an easy-to-understand way.


What Is a Unification Tax Withholding Slip?

A Unification Tax Withholding Slip is an electronic document that records income tax deductions, such as PPh Article 21, 23, and 26. It is created by the tax withholder through the e-Bupot DJP system and serves as an official archive for the Periodic Tax Return (SPT Masa) report.

  • The withholding should not have occurred (e.g., transaction was canceled)
