- Description and amount
- PPN breakdown and total in IDR
Field by field

- Tax rates: PPN — NPWP / NIK
- Currency: IDR (Rp)

Invoice numbering
Default numbering pattern: INV-2026-0042. A Faktur Pajak is required for PPN-eligible B2B transactions in Indonesia.
Tax terminology: PPN
Invoices are labelled with the terminology Indonesia businesses expect. Presets are provided as a starting point and are not tax advice.
- PPN standar: 11%
- PPN mewah: 12%
- Tidak kena pajak: 0%
Indonesian invoices normally show PPN (VAT) in addition to the subtotal.
Payment practice

Invoicing notes for Indonesia
Faktur Pajak for VAT
PPN-charged transactions need a tax invoice (faktur pajak) with both parties' tax identifiers.
Large round amounts
Rupiah has two decimal places but rarely uses them — most invoices show whole rupiah.
Withholding references
Corporate buyers often deduct PPh withholding, so record the reference on your records.
