00:00The Ministry of Finance has confirmed that the adjustment of the tax rate for tobacco products will not be implemented in 2025.
00:08The government said it will consider other policies by adjusting the price of sales at the industry level.
00:16The Ministry of Finance has confirmed that the adjustment of the tax rate for tobacco products will not be implemented in 2025.
00:25The Ministry of Finance has confirmed that the adjustment of the tax rate for tobacco products will not be implemented in 2025.
00:32The Director-General of the Ministry of Finance, Askolani, explained that this decision was made based on the results of the discussion of the budget for the 2025 state spending, which was just agreed by the DPRRI.
00:48The government's position on the adjustment of the tax rate for tobacco products will not be implemented in 2025.
00:58However, the government will consider other alternative policies, such as adjusting the price of sales at the industry level,
01:08which will be reviewed in the coming months to determine the policies that will be implemented by the government.
01:19The policy of the 2025 state spending can be considered as a down-trending policy.
01:30The difference between 1, 2, and 3 cigarettes is a factor that can cause down-trending in the tobacco industry.
01:46The Director-General of the Ministry of Finance, Askolani, stated that the government will consider other policies by adjusting the price of sales in the industry,
01:54and this decision will be made in the coming months.
01:58In addition, the policy of the 2025 state spending will consider the phenomenon of down-trending,
02:05which is the shift in consumption from expensive cigarettes to cheaper cigarettes,
02:09and the significant price difference between 1, 2, and 3 cigarettes.
02:23This time, we will review the tobacco tax rate and the current industrial picture.
02:30The Association of Indonesian Tobacco Factories, or GAPRI, appreciates the government's decision not to raise the tobacco tax rate at the CHT in 2025,
02:40as stated by the Director-General of the Ministry of Finance, Askolani.
02:45However, one of the government's considerations is the emergence of the phenomenon of down-trading cigarettes
02:50as a result of the increase in the tobacco tax rate in 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024,
02:58whose average value is above 10% every year,
03:01so that the total increase in the tobacco tax rate from year to year has reached above 65%.
03:08This phenomenon is also indicated by consumers who turn to consume cigarettes at a cheaper price, including illegal cigarettes.
03:17In addition to appreciating the down-trending tobacco tax rate in 2025,
03:22GAPRI also asked the government not to change the price of cigarette sales next year,
03:28and there is no increase in PPN to 12%.
03:31GAPRI also stated that based on the legal cigarette market conditions,
03:35which are threatened by the pressure of non-fiscal and fiscal policies,
03:39the cigarette factory of GAPRI members continues to survive,
03:42with industrial productivity and productivity,
03:45as well as a decline in production and a slowdown in CHT receivables,
03:50which requires mitigation policies.
03:52On the other hand, the Minister of Finance stated,
03:55or is studying the plan to increase the price of cigarette sales,
04:00although the increase in the tobacco tax rate will not rise in 2025.
04:07We will see what policies will be taken by the government,
04:11whether there will be adjustments to the price of cigarette sales at the industrial level,
04:15so that the price of cigarette sales will rise again,
04:17and how the impact will be on the practice in the field,
04:20whether the tobacco producers will experience a negative impact
04:25from the increase in the price of cigarette sales or adjustments to the price of cigarette sales at the industrial level.
04:30Meanwhile, the minister is related to the tobacco tax rate.
04:33Speaking of the tobacco tax rate, this is not a joke,
04:37because it turns out that the implementation of the tobacco tax rate, or CHT,
04:41still dominates the state's receivables,
04:44from the perspective of taxation and taxes,
04:47as stated by the Ministry of Finance recently,
04:50where it is not unbearable,
04:52the receivables of the tobacco tax rate, or CHT,
04:55turned out to be more than Rp 100 trillion last August.
05:00For more details, let's see the complete information.
05:07The Ministry of Finance notes that the receivables of tobacco and tobacco taxes
05:11until August 2024 reached Rp 183.2 trillion,
05:16or 57.1% of the budget target for state income and spending in 2024.
05:21The realization of the receivables increased by 6.8% annually or year on year.
05:28The receivables of tobacco and tobacco taxes are still able to grow by 6.8%.
05:34All components of the receivables of tobacco and tobacco taxes
05:37are also monitored to experience growth.
05:41The receivables of income taxes amounted to Rp 33.9 trillion,
05:46or 59.1% of the budget target.
05:51The receivables of income taxes grew by 3.1% year on year,
05:57which was boosted by an increase in the import value by 3.4%
06:02and strengthened by the exchange rate of US dollars.
06:08According to the Ministry of Finance,
06:10the receivables of tobacco and tobacco taxes are dominated by the tobacco tax sector.
06:14From the total receivables of tobacco taxes amounting to Rp 138.4 trillion,
06:18the tobacco tax dominated by the state tax sector
06:21with a nominal amount of Rp 132.8 trillion.
06:25In addition to the tobacco tax,
06:27the tobacco tax is also obtained from the alcohol tax
06:30amounting to Rp 5.4 trillion
06:33and the alcohol tax amounting to Rp 93.6 trillion.
06:38Meanwhile, from the receivables of interest payments,
06:41the Ministry of Finance announced the receivables of interest payments
06:44amounting to Rp 33.9 trillion
06:47grew by 3.1% year on year.
06:50Then, the receivables of interest payments amounting to Rp 10.9 trillion
06:54rose sharply with a growth rate of 59.3%.
06:59IDX Channel coverage team
07:05Yes, the tobacco tax rate from year to year
07:08indeed recorded a significant number,
07:11even dominating the receivables of Indonesia.
07:14And the latest, in August 2024,
07:17Rp 138.2 trillion was donated by the tobacco industry,
07:22especially the cigarette industry,
07:24and was accepted as a national treasure,
07:26a rather fantastic figure.
07:28Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance
07:30stated that it will wait for the government's study
07:34of the era of Prabowo Subianto
07:38or the incoming government in 2025,
07:41before establishing a tobacco tax policy next year.
07:44Director General Beacukai Askolani affirmed
07:47that President Jokowi Dodota's government
07:50will approve the tobacco tax for next year.
07:53Moreover, the 2025 National Tobacco Tax
07:56has been approved as part of the 2025 National Tobacco Tax Law.
08:01In other words,
08:02the tobacco tax rate in 2025
08:05and next year
08:07will be determined by Prabowo Subianto
08:10and his cabinet.
08:12Previously,
08:13the State Treasury Accountability Agency
08:16reported a 5% increase in tobacco tax
08:20in 2025
08:22and also in 2026.
08:25The figure is lower than the increase in 2023
08:29and also in 2024,
08:30which averaged to reach a double digit or 10%.
08:34Meanwhile, after announcing the tobacco tax rate in 2025,
08:38the Ministry of Finance also stated
08:40that it is studying the plan
08:42to increase the price of tobacco sales.
08:45Director of Receipt and Strategic Planning,
08:47Directorate General Beacukai,
08:49M. Aflah Farobi said
08:51that his party cannot hesitate
08:53in adjusting the price of tobacco sales.
08:56Because this policy is estimated to affect
08:59the way people consume tobacco,
09:02such as an increase in tobacco tax,
09:04which makes people choose to use tobacco
09:07at a lower price
09:09or with the so-called downtrading phenomenon.
09:12For that, the Ministry of Finance considered four things
09:15before implementing this policy,
09:17namely the impact on the tobacco industry,
09:19especially on tobacco farmers,
09:21and also the impact on public health,
09:23as well as the control of tobacco consumption.
09:26In addition, the government also considered
09:28an increase in the price of state-owned tobacco
09:31and its impact on the circulation of illegal tobacco,
09:34so that the increase in the price of tobacco sales
09:37that will be maintained by the government
09:39will make the production of illegal tobacco
09:42more expensive
09:43because it has the potential to lose state-owned tobacco,
09:46even estimated to reach more than 50 trillion rupiah
09:50from the illegal tobacco circulation
09:53that does not comply or is not fit to pay taxes to the state.
09:57Meanwhile, the review of the tobacco tax rate
10:00or the tobacco tax,
10:02economists say there needs to be a new formula
10:05in increasing the tobacco tax rate.
10:07What is the new formula proposed by economists?
10:10Let's see the following information.
10:12The increase in the tobacco tax rate
10:16that has been aggressive for the past few years
10:19is estimated to be a burden to the state
10:21and the circulation of illegal tobacco.
10:23Therefore, the government estimates
10:25it is necessary to re-formulate the tobacco tax rate plan.
10:29The head of the Center of Industry, Trade and Investment,
10:32Indef Andrisa Triundugroho, said
10:34in determining the CHT rate,
10:36the government needs to make a firm,
10:38transparent and positive impact
10:40on the industry and the country.
10:42Thus, he recommended to the government
10:45so that economic growth,
10:47inflation and health factors can be made
10:49in determining the size of the tobacco tax rate.
10:52To continue the control of tobacco consumption
10:54is estimated not only to be based on the tax rate,
10:57but also on incentives and taxes.
10:59Therefore, the excessive increase in the tobacco tax rate
11:02for the tobacco industry
11:04will affect other sectors
11:06such as agriculture,
11:08labor, labor force, and retail.
11:11Economists say that when the tobacco tax rate rises too high,
11:14the price of cigarettes also increases.
11:16Meanwhile, the manufacturer can not alleviate
11:18the burden of the increase in the tobacco tax rate
11:20directly and indirectly to the consumer.
11:22As a result, the consumer moves to more affordable cigarettes
11:25and opens up a wider market
11:27for the circulation of illegal cigarettes.
11:31IDXJournal coverage team
11:37Yes, that was a new proposal
11:39related to the formula for the increase in the tobacco tax rate.
11:42There is also a review of the policy of the tobacco tax rate
11:44which is moderate and multi-year
11:46is considered to be the most effective way
11:48to optimize the country's revenue.
11:50The reason is that the implementation of the tobacco tax rate
11:53in the last two years
11:55is not effective in boosting the country's revenue
11:57from the tobacco tax rate.
11:59The Executive Director of the Indonesia Budget Center,
12:01Elisabeth Kusrini, said that
12:03the CHT policy in 2023 and 2024
12:08is not effective in optimizing the country's revenue.
12:11The realization of the country's revenue from the tax rate
12:14fell when the CHT increased by 10%
12:16for two consecutive years.
12:19According to her, the policy of the tobacco tax rate
12:21needs to be evaluated and adjusted
12:23in order to optimize the country's revenue
12:26while still achieving the public health goals.
12:29Therefore, she urged
12:31that the policy of the moderate and multi-year tobacco tax rate
12:34proposed in the framework of macroeconomic
12:37and fiscal policy principles of 2025
12:40can be a reference
12:42aimed at optimizing the country's revenue
12:45and maintaining economic stability.
12:48The policy of the moderate and multi-year tobacco tax rate
12:50is expected to provide
12:52a guarantee of business certainty
12:54for industry players
12:56given the high tobacco tax rate
12:58in the past few years
13:00with a two-digit increase in the tax rate.
13:04If we talk about the tobacco tax rate in Indonesia,
13:08these two things are quite similar
13:12and create a dilemma.
13:15The Ministry of Finance
13:17or the government stated that
13:19the increase in the tobacco tax rate from year to year
13:22is to reduce the prevalence of smoking
13:25in the Indonesian community
13:26which continues to increase.
13:28But on the other hand,
13:29the government also benefits
13:33from the tobacco tax rate which is always high
13:36from year to year.
13:37Therefore, there must be a balance
13:39and there must be a way
13:40to achieve these two goals,
13:43minimize or reduce the prevalence of smoking
13:46while optimizing the country's revenue.
13:48We hope that the government
13:50and all stakeholders
13:52can sit together
13:54to create new strategies.
13:57Because the economist also said
14:00that there must be a more strict regulation
14:04for tobacco activities outside the room
14:07so that the prevalence of smoking
14:08or tobacco activities can also be suppressed.
14:10And also from retail business players,
14:13education must also be given
14:15to consumers or the general public
14:18about the impact of tobacco activities.
14:23So that in the end,
14:24this thing is still carried out
14:26but the government can still apply the tax
14:29fairly
14:30so that the country's revenue
14:32can also be recorded well from time to time.
