Monthly withholding on vendors and non-residents: PPh 23, PPh 4(2) final and PPh 26 with unified slips

We decide which withholding applies to each payment, compute it, issue the unified slip (bukti potong unifikasi) in Coretax, apply treaty rates for foreign vendors with the DGT form, and pay and file on time.

For: Companies and some individuals who pay for services, rent, royalties, interest or dividends to residents (PPh 23 or 4(2)) or to non-residents (PPh 26).

What we need from you

    Interest and royalty withholding

What we discuss

  • Is the vendor resident or non-resident?

    PPh 23 or 4(2) versus PPh 26

  • Is it rent of land or buildings, or other assets?

    10 percent final versus 2 percent

  • Does the vendor use 0.5 percent final tax with a certificate?

    Then you withhold 0.5 percent final instead

  • For foreign vendors, do they have a treaty form ready before payment?

    Without it the full 20 percent applies

  • Who bears the tax: vendor or you (gross up)?
