JAKARTA, DDTCNews – The Ministry of Finance has released the Ministry of Finance Regulation (MoF Reg.) No. 143 Year 2023 which stipulates the taxation of cigarettes, including e-cigarettes.

MoF Reg. 143/2023 elucidates that cigarettes include cigarettes, cigars, cornhusk cigarettes and other forms of cigarette subject to cigarette excise. Moreover, the regulation emphasises that cigarette tax covers all types of cigarettes, including e-cigarettes.

Cigarette tax is collected by the Customs and Excise Office simultaneously with the collection of cigarette excise. To calculate cigarette tax, the first step is determining the cigarette tax base.

The cigarette tax base refers to the excise duty stipulated by the central government on cigarettes. To calculate cigarette tax, the first step is to determine the cigarette tax base. The rate used to calculate cigarette tax amounts to 10%. The following is the procedure for the calculation of cigarette tax:

Cigarette Tax = Tax Base x Tax Rate

Please note that supplies of tobacco products manufactured domestically or overseas are subject to value added tax (VAT). Supplies of tobacco products are subject to VAT using other values multiplied by the VAT rate as the tax base.

The VAT rate applicable from 1 April 2022 amounts to 11%. From 1 January 2025, the rate becomes 12%. The other values are obtained from the following formula:

Other Value = 100/(100+t) x Tobacco Product Retail Selling Price 

Based on this calculation, the VAT rate on tobacco products will be 9.9% from 1 April 2022 and 10.7% from 1 January 2025. The following is how VAT on supplies of tobacco products is calculated:

VAT = Rate x Tobacco Product Retail Selling Price
