Indonesia Plans Rp632 Trillion in Tax Incentives for 2027
Indonesia’s finance minister, Suahasil Nazara, says the government plans Rp632 trillion in tax incentives for 2027, equal to an estimated 2.26% of the country’s gross domestic product.
The incentives work through tax relief, including exemptions from some taxes.
The government says they are intended to support households, small businesses and investment while protecting purchasing power and economic growth.
Manufacturing, agriculture and trade are expected to use much of the support, as they did in 2026.
That year, estimated tax incentives totalled Rp576.4 trillion, with manufacturing receiving the largest share at Rp137.2 trillion.
The planned relief matters because the government says it is designed to strengthen productivity and business competitiveness.
The government’s next step is to provide the planned incentives in 2027, with support tailored to different sectors.
