Indonesia digital governance and tax reforms
Overview
In late August 2026, Indonesia continued its expansion of mobile administrative services. In Jakarta, Polda Metro Jaya deployed mobile driver's license (SIM) units to various malls and public spaces, offering Saturday morning renewals for SIM A and SIM C categories. In Yogyakarta and Kulonprogo, police departments expanded accessibility through drive-thru options, public service malls, and specialized night service programs such as ‘SIMENOR’ in Kulonprogo.
Simultaneously, the Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning (ATR/BPN) progressed its land service transformation through the ‘PERINTIS 10 Hari’ pilot program. This initiative aims to complete land rights transfers—including sales, grants, and exchanges involving Land Deed Officials (PPAT)—within 10 days. Currently being piloted across 17 land offices, the program covers approximately 70 percent of land office services. The ministry intends to expand this to include initial land registration, potentially increasing coverage to 80 percent, alongside land subdivision and merging services. Officials noted that successful implementation relies on participant readiness regarding deed signings and the advance preparation of tax obligations, such as Income Tax (PPh) and Buyer's Transfer Fees.
