Tax

Regional Tax & Levies

Regional tax often dwarfs income tax and VAT for hospitality and property businesses in Bali. We handle PBJT, PBB, BPHTB, and levies end to end.

Overview

Overview

Regional taxes and levies are the obligations most taxpayers overlook — because they're administered by local government, not the DGT. But for businesses in hotels, restaurants, entertainment, and property in Bali, regional tax often dwarfs income tax and VAT. IBU handles regional-tax compliance end to end.

Taxes we manage

  • PB1 — Hotel & Restaurant Tax.
  • Entertainment Tax for bars, lounges, and event organisers.
  • Advertising Tax for outdoor and on-premise signage.
  • Land & Building Tax (PBB), including challenges to unreasonable NJOP valuations.
  • BPHTB — Land & Building Acquisition Tax for property transactions.
  • Groundwater Tax for businesses using deep-well water.
  • Non-Metallic Mineral Tax for relevant industries.

Local presence

Every regency and city in Bali has its own bylaw and rates. The IBU team maintains working relationships with Bapenda offices in Denpasar, Badung, Gianyar, Tabanan, Buleleng, Klungkung, Karangasem, Bangli, and Jembrana — which makes a real difference during field inspections and taxpayer-data updates.

What you get

A regional-tax compliance calendar, monthly PB1 and Entertainment Tax reporting, annual PBB management, and audit-ready documentation should the local government run a compliance review.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our services.

PBJT — Specific Goods and Services Tax — is the regional tax introduced by the HKPD Law that consolidates hotel, restaurant, entertainment, parking, and street-lighting taxes.
For hospitality and property businesses, PBJT and PBB often contribute more than income tax or VAT. They are administered by local government, so they need separate attention.
Yes. Where the assessed value (NJOP) is out of step with reality, we can pursue a correction so the PBB reflects the property fairly.
The HKPD Law allows a higher PBJT band for certain entertainment categories. The exact rate is set by each regency or city bylaw, and we apply the correct local rate.
Yes. Land and building acquisition duty on a property transaction is part of our regional-tax scope, processed with the local Bapenda.
