The minister highlighted that the implementation of the core tax system is driven by the increasing number of taxpayers and the volume of documents that need to be processed by the tax system.

"This aligns with the growing challenges, where our number of taxpayers has increased from 33 million to 70 million, and the number of documents that need to be processed by our tax system has also increased, such as our e-invoices, which have risen from 350 million documents to 776 million documents," she explained.

Minister Mulyani emphasized the importance of developing the IT system and database in taxation.

"Since 2018, we have started designing changes to this tax system by adopting the Commercial off The Shelf (COTS) System, which has been used by various countries to build a good tax system," she remarked.

The core tax system will enhance the automation and digitalization of all tax administration services, allowing taxpayers to access self-service features and automatic tax return submissions. This will increase transparency in taxpayer accounts.

"Taxpayers can see a 360-degree review of all their tax information. Services will become faster, more accurate, real-time, and law enforcement oversight will also be more accurate and fair," the minister emphasized.
