Govt sets up special tax offices to probe mining, oil and gas firms

The Jakarta Post | April 3, 2012

The Directorate General of Taxation has established two new offices dedicated to handling the tax obligations of mining, oil and gas companies.

Director general Fuad Rahmany said on Monday that the establishment of the two offices was important to ensure that mining, oil and gas companies paid their dues.

Fuad said that for decades, Indonesia, as one of the members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), had been unable to fully verify its potential tax income from the mining, oil and gas sectors.
