The basic formula:

Taxable Income = Gross Income – 5% Occupational Expense Deduction – PTKP.

Simple example:

If your gross income is IDR 100 million and your PTKP status is TK/0 amounting to IDR 54 million, your Taxable Income (PKP) is calculated after deducting the occupational expense. The tax payable follows the progressive income tax rates in accordance with prevailing regulations.

These rates refer to provisions under the General Taxation Law (KUP Law) and its implementing regulations.

FAQ About SPT 1770S

What is the difference between SPT 1770S and 1770SS?

1770S is for taxpayers with gross income above IDR 60 million per year. 1770SS is for taxpayers with gross income equal to or below IDR 60 million per year.

If I work for two companies, do I still use 1770S?

Yes, as long as your total gross income exceeds IDR 60 million and you do not run an independent business.

Do I still need to file if my tax has already been withheld by my employer?

What happens if I file late?

You will be subject to an administrative fine of IDR 100,000 for individual taxpayers.

Does the Coretax system automatically calculate tax?
