e-Invoice in Indonesia
Companies registered in Java and Bali in Indonesia have been required to use electronic invoices since 1 July, 2015.
And as of July 1, 2016, all Indonesian companies have been required to use electronic invoices. The Indonesian Minister of Finance Bambang P.S. Brodjonegoro expects a successful electronic invoice implementation to raise the VAT revenue.
It stipulates that VAT Entrepreneurs (PKPs)located in Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Nusa Tenggara, Papua, and Maluku are required to use the e-tax invoice (e-Faktur) system when issuing their tax invoices effective from 1st July 2016. This requirement has applied to the PKPs in Java and Bali since 1st July 2015; therefore, by 1st July 2016, all PKPs in Indonesia should already have implemented the e-Faktur system.
New system stipulates the following important points:
- 1. The PKPs should register or activate their e-Faktur applications starting from 16 June 2016.
- 2. The PKPs should use their e-Faktur applications to prepare their VAT returns.
- 3. The PKPs should obtain the certificate of e-Faktur from the registered tax office.
- 4. Invoices that are not issued as e-Faktur or e-Fakturs, that are not issued in line with the procedures, shall be considered as not being issued and PKPs will be subjected to an administrative sanction of %2 of VAT base of related invoice.
- 5. On the buyer side, the received e-Faktur that they receive should be validated through the VAT input feature of e-Faktur application or by scanning the barcode or QR code list as printed on the e-Faktur.
- 6. VAT amount stated in the invoice which is not issued as e-Faktur or is not issued in line with the procedures cannot be credit as Input VAT.
