Indonesian regional revenue optimization efforts

Overview

Indonesian regional governments are implementing various strategies to optimize regional original income (PAD) and improve tax compliance through digitalization and targeted enforcement.

In Ciamis, the Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) has focused on asset optimization, managing tax receivables to minimize bad debts, and promoting digital transaction literacy via QRIS payments. By late 2026, the agency also initiated special operations targeting vehicles that failed to re-register to increase motor vehicle tax awareness.

Other regions have reported varying progress toward revenue targets. In Padang, the local government is pursuing a target of Rp1.04 trillion for the 2026 amended budget. As of September 7, 2026, the city realized Rp628.586 billion, representing approximately 64.43 percent of the total target. Officials are working to bridge a remaining gap of roughly Rp128.646 billion to meet the third-quarter goal.

Serang has also reported steady growth in PAD, with revenue rising from Rp289.86 billion in 2024 to Rp399.91 billion in 2025, a 37.97 percent increase. For the 2026 fiscal year, Serang has set a target of Rp553.24 billion, which is a projected increase of 90.87 percent compared to the 2024 baseline. Meanwhile, Medan continues to prioritize strengthening motor vehicle tax compliance and accelerating the digitalization of local government transactions.
