TAX COMPLIANCE GETS EASIER FOR COMPANIES, BUT NEW DATA HIGHLIGHTS POST – FILING CHALLENGES

JAKARTA, Indonesia, Nov 17 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Economies around the world continue to make progress in simplifying and reducing the burden of tax compliance on businesses, says the latest edition of Paying Taxes 2017, a report by The World Bank Group and PwC.

Released today, the report finds that the Total Tax Rate decreased by 0.1 percentage points to 40.6 percent; time to comply declined by 8 hours to 251 hours; and the number of payments by 0.8 to 25 payments.

In an expanded analysis this year, the report finds that for some economies, post-filing processes for value-added tax (VAT) and corporate income tax (CIT) returns could be amongst the most challenging and lengthy processes for businesses to comply with. In some cases, the length of the processes can create cash flow and administrative delays for companies of more than a year.
