TIMIKA - Tax revenue during the first quarter (January 1-March 31) 2026 at the Timika Pratama Tax Service Office, Central Papua was realized at Rp93.7 billion or 9.37 percent of the target of Rp1.009 trillion this year.
Head of the Timika Pratama KPP Agus Hery Winarso in Timika, Saturday, said that the tax revenue was dominated by the revenue sources of government agencies, both vertical agencies that manage the state budget and local governments that manage the APBD.
"The hope is that in the second quarter, especially starting in June, it can increase significantly because there have been project disbursements or handover of work from both vertical agency sources of the APBN and district APBDs, as well as APBDes (Village Income and Expenditure Budget)," said Agus.
Meanwhile, the realization of the Timika KPP Pratama tax revenue in 2025 was recorded at Rp837.8 billion.
Agus predicted that the tax revenue of the Timika Pratama KPP in the future would not be as large as in the 2024 period which reached Rp. 4.55 trillion.
This happened because some state revenues, especially taxes from PT Freeport Indonesia and a number of subcontractor companies and their privatization, are no longer managed by the KPP Timikamelainkankini, but are transferred to the large taxpayer office in Jakarta.
The transfer of management of corporate taxes is in line with the implementation of the Cortex policy implemented by the government since 2025.
"The receipt of PPh 21 and PBB (land and building tax) of the mining sector of PTFI, as well as PTFI vendors, was previously recorded in the Timika KPP, but with the implementation of Cortex, these companies are now recorded in the KPP for large taxpayers in Jakarta because their parent NPWP is there," explained Agus.
Although the recording of tax revenue from these companies is in the large taxpayer KPP in Jakarta, this does not affect the Mimika Regency's revenue which is sourced from the tax revenue sharing fund (DBH).
"Although the PPh 21 is not recorded here, there will be special calculations in accordance with the Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) in relation to the central and regional fiscal balance funds," explained Agus.
Referring to the landslide incident in the PTFI underground mine area which occurred in September 2025 which had an impact on the company's operations for several months, Agus hopes that it will not interfere with state revenue from the tax component.
"We hope that the conditions at the PTFI mine site can be quickly recovered and the impact will not last long. So far, from the perspective of revenue in Mimika, it is still quite safe," he said.
To note, the working area of the Timika Pratama KPP covers four regencies, namely Mimika, Intan Jaya, Deiyai and Paniai.
