JAKARTA - The Manokwari Samsat Technical Implementation Unit recorded that the amount of official vehicle tax (randis) belonging to the West Papua Provincial Government in 2023 that must be completed reached Rp1.4 billion.
Head of UPT Samsat Manokwari Septinus Ullo said the official vehicle tax collection letter had been submitted to the Regional Financial and Asset Management Agency (BPKAD) of West Papua.
"We have sent a letter of collection to the provincial government through BPKAD," said Septinus in Manokwari, Antara, Wednesday, October 18.
He hopes that the provincial government will immediately resolve the arrears before the program to remove fines and transfer fees for motor vehicle taxes ends on October 31, 2023.
The government should be an example for the community regarding timeliness in completing the obligation to pay motor vehicle taxes.
"If it passes October 31, the value is more than IDR 1.4 billion. So we hope to finish it soon," explained Septinus.
In 2022, he said, the provincial government has completed tax arrears for official vehicles, both two-wheeled and four-wheeled, with a value of approximately Rp. 3 billion.
Samsat continues to coordinate with BPKAD so that payment of official vehicle taxes does not pass due, because it will accumulate with fines.
"I have checked with several Samsat in other provinces, it turns out that West Papua is quite obedient in paying official vehicle taxes," said Septinus.
He appreciated the rapid response of the Manokwari Regency Government, which has paid off official vehicle tax obligations in 2023 of approximately IDR 900 million.
In accordance with the direction of the Corruption Eradication Commission (KPK), UPT Samsat must have the courage to collect arrears in motor vehicle taxes belonging to the local government.
"Not only the people I collect, but I also collect the government because of the tax obligation every year," said Septinus Ullo.
