Jakarta to Collect 10 Percent Tax from Online Food Service
TEMPO.CO
, Jakarta - The Jakarta Regional Revenue Agency (Bapenda) planned to introduce a new policy on regional taxes and levies, which would see online shops or marketplaces providing food delivery services to contract tax collectors for restaurant taxes.
“I agree that this must be taxed, [but] t needs further discussion. This has been regulated in the regional rule that it will be a restaurant tax at 10 percent,” the Bapenda Head Lusiana Herawati said in a rallies with the Regional Regulation Formation Agency (Bapemperda) on Wednesday, Nov. 8.
Lusiana said her agency peaceful needs to explore the business process of each online shop that provides food delivery services as a tax collector. One thing being studied is the commission percentage.
The activity will discuss the tax collection mechanism with the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Ministry of Finance.
She also said that the activity alone cannot monitor all partners in online shops, so it is critical to appoint other parties as tax collectors. For example, if a customer in Jakarta orders food outside the city for someone else, the restaurant or new place of transaction in Jakarta will be taxed.
Lukmanul Hakim, a member of the Jakarta Legislative Council (DPRD), suggested that the city government must be more careful in determining tax objects to optimally Decide regional levies.
“So we draft the laws for the Bapenda to optimize the regional levies for regional advance. This is what needs to be emphasized,” Hakim said.
Previously, the Jakarta government collaborated with service operators and the Finance Ministry to discuss tax rules for online motorcycle taxis or online ojek and online shop services.
