Indonesia expands licensing, tax, investment & media reforms

Overview

Indonesia’s mobile driver‑license renewal programme (SIM Keliling) kept expanding in July 2026, adding sites in Jakarta, Bandung and Gunungkidul while fees stayed at Rp 80,000 for SIM A and Rp 75,000 for SIM C. The service now runs in Jakarta, Bogor, Bekasi, Bandung and several villages, with limited evening slots on Saturdays. A mobile Samsat (vehicle‑tax) unit was deployed to four locations in Bali, offering on‑site registration renewals.

The Directorate General of Taxes made the Coretax platform mandatory, reporting a 24.6 % rise in individual‑income and corporate‑tax collections in H1 2026 and confirming no tax‑rate hikes. Finance Minister Purbaya Yudhi Sadewa highlighted digitalisation of the informal economy, stronger audits and curbing illegal imports as drivers of the improved revenue base. A Supreme Audit Agency review flagged roughly Rp 5.84 trillion in uncollected tax debt.

Investment performance exceeded targets: total investment in 2025 reached Rp 1.931 trillion (12.7 % YoY), creating 2.71 million jobs, with domestic and foreign capital almost evenly split. Hilirisation projects added Rp 152.7 trillion in Q2 2026, led by bauxite, and the government announced plans for an International Financial Centre.

The digital crackdown removed 3.7 million illegal gambling sites, but Kaspersky reported a shift to social‑media bots and fake accounts to promote gambling, urging tighter cooperation among platforms, regulators and financial institutions.

Legislators reviewed the 2025 budget for public broadcasters and consulted on a draft media law aimed at aligning regulation with digital platforms. Minister of Higher Education, Science and Technology Brian Yuliarto called for world‑class maritime human resources, while Industry Minister Agus Gumiwang Kartasasmita celebrated the graduation of 2 369 vocational students, underscoring the need for a skilled industrial workforce as the processing sector grew 5.04 % in Q1 2026.
