JAKARTA - Apple announced a price increase for every application purchase on the App Store. The price increases will be carried out in a number of countries, including Indonesia in the next few days.

Apple briefly explained that the price increase was made to follow the adjustment of currency exchange rates in each country. Including the increase in the value of taxes in each country.

"When taxes or currency exchange rates change, we sometimes need to update prices on the App Store," wrote Apple on its official website, Tuesday, October 27.

In Indonesia itself, a regulation has been enacted starting to apply the collection of Value Added Tax (VAT) on trade transactions via an electronic system (PMSE), since September 1. As a result, a number of in-app purchase applications will be subject to 10 percent VAT.

Apart from Indonesia, Apple will also increase application prices in a number of other countries, such as Brazil, Colombia, India, Russia and South Africa. Outside these six countries, Apple is still adjusting subscription prices for services such as Apple Music and iCloud.

App Store price adjustments will also be made in Iceland and Albania to match prices used in other markets that have in-app purchase services with VAT. Regarding the price adjustment, Apple also urges developers to check the latest information on applications that will be sold.
