JAMBI-West Sumatra DGT (West Sumatra) and Jambi Regional Offices through state tax collectors carry out law enforcement actions in the form of simultaneous blocking of 61 tax arrears accounts with a tax arrears value of Rp47 billion.

Reported by ANTARA, Friday, May 19, the act of blocking simultaneous tax arrears accounts is a legal action by the Directorate General of Taxes, which is protected by law and implemented based on Minister of Finance Regulation Number 189/PMK.03/2020 concerning Procedures for the Implementation of Tax Collection for Taxes That Still Must Be Paid.

In accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Finance Number 189/PMK.03/2020 Article 1 point 26 it is stated that the blocking is an act of securing goods belonging to tax arrears with the aim that there are no changes to the goods in question.

Blocking is part of confiscation activities. Confiscation is the act of a state tax confiscation interpreter to control the goods in charge of taxes, in order to be used as collateral to pay off tax debts according to statutory regulations.

The blocking of taxpayer assets stored in the Financial Services Institution (LJK), one of which includes bank accounts, is the first step for the state tax confiscation interpreter in a series of tax law enforcement processes.

Before arriving at the blocking stage, a warning letter notification has been submitted to taxpayers, delivery of forced letters and other active collection actions, including persuasive steps so that taxpayers pay off their tax arrears, either by displacing or submitting an application to postpone tax payments in accordance with statutory provisions.

Furthermore, the revocation of the blocking can only be done if the Taxpayer (WP) pays off the tax debt and collection fees and if the taxpayer does not pay off his tax debt, the Tax Service Office will follow up with a request for a book transfer from the tax account to the state treasury.

The West Sumatra and Jambi DGT Regional Offices hope that this account blocking activity can provide a deterrent effect for uncooperative tax arrears and become an example for other taxpayers to always comply with applicable laws and regulations in fulfilling their tax rights and obligations.

Taxpayers who have tax debts are urged to immediately pay off tax debts so that Taxpayers avoid being blocked.

The West Sumatra and Jambi DGT Regional Offices are always committed to achieving optimal tax revenues for the realization of the nation's economic recovery.

For this reason, the taxpayer is reminded to carry out his tax obligations by calculating, calculating and paying the amount of tax owed to the state treasury in accordance with the provisions of the tax laws and regulations.
