Starting 1 July 2026, Indonesian marketplaces are designated to withhold PPh Pasal 22 at 0.5% of gross turnover for domestic sellers; the Rp500 million annual turnover exemption applies only to individual taxpayers (wajib pajak orang pribadi) who submit the required statement letter, not to all merchants. The rule is not limited to corporate sellers and also covers domestic online merchants more broadly.
