Indonesian provinces implement vehicle tax relief programs

Eleven provinces in Indonesia are implementing vehicle tax amnesty and relief programs through the end of 2026 to reduce the administrative burden on vehicle owners. These policies include the waiver of late payment fines for Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB), BBNKB, and SWDKLLJ, as well as exemptions from progressive taxes.

In Banten, the program offers a 5% discount on PKB for timely payments, a 20% discount for private vehicle transfers into the province, and a 40% discount for corporate vehicle transfers. Banten's tax relief and fine waivers are scheduled to run until October 31, 2026, with transfer incentives valid until December 23, 2026.

Central Java is offering a program to waive administrative sanctions and progressive taxes from September 21 until December 28, 2026. Meanwhile, East Java has launched a two-month amnesty period that includes waiving administrative fines and providing a 20% reduction on PKB arrears from 2025 and earlier.
