Income from the tax sector is generally the main income for all countries in the world in order to finance its activities. Increased revenue from the tax sector is often hampered, due to the large tax evasion and tax avoidance activities. Tax evasion and tax avoidance practices are triggered by the practice of low tax rates and other facilities provided by the tax heaven countries. In order to combat tax evasion and tax avoidance, the approach taken by each country is different. But basically approach done can be distinguished on soft apporach and hard approach. One approach that is classified as a soft approach is a tax amnesty program. In 2016 the Government of Indonesia is implementing a tax amnesty program based on Law Number 11 of 2016 concerning Tax Amnesty applied from 1 July 2016 to 31 March 2017. This paper will evaluate the successful implementation of the tax amnesty program that has been implemented in Indonesia. Evaluation is based on the achievement of 3 objectives, namely the repatriation of assets from abroad, expansion of the tax base and increase in tax revenue for the short and long term. From the point of asset repatriation, the tax amnesty program is considered quite successful, because although the target of asset repatriation is not achieved, but the asset repatriation has reached 30.54% of the estimated financial assets abroad. From the point of view of the expansion of the tax base, the number of declarations and repatriation reaches Rp. 4,737.56 trillion has exceeded the target. Meanwhile, from the point of view of increasing short-term tax revenues, the objective of the amnesty program can be considered quite successful, because it contributes 10.15% to the average amount of tax revenue in 2016 and 2017, although it has not been able to raise the growth rate of overall tax revenue for the year 2016 and 2017. Increased tax revenues for the long term can not be evaluated, because the tax amnesty program was completed 1 year ago.

AbstractThough tax amnesties (TAs) are considered as a policy tool to increase revenue for governments, they have generated some puzzles. To solve the puzzles of TA we should not ignore the behavioural aspects of delinquent taxpayers. In this paper, we focus on a relatively neglected but important area of the TA literature. Considering that people who participate in tax amnesty policy (TAP) may not honestly report the whole amounts of evaded tax, thus they commit a secondary tax evasion. We indicate that even considering the risk of abstaining from TA and incurring possible uncertainty of tax evasion penalties, participating in a TA provides a higher level of utility for the delinquent taxpayers. Also, due to a secondary tax evasion usually accompanying with TA, we show that during the initial assessment period of a TAP the tax revenue drastically increases and when the assessment period is approaching the tax revenue stably declines and ultimately converges to a fixed value. Furthermore, we show that if delinquent taxpayers participate in the TAP and the penalties are larger than the expected tax revenue of the government, it increases the tax revenue without reducing the welfare of other taxpayers, so as to achieving Pareto improvement.

Tax amnesty program is one instrument that is used widely by the tax authorities  in many countries in order to increase tax revenue, broaden the tax base, improve tax compliance and other purposes. In addition to having a large role in increasing tax revenue, tax amnesty program also may be adversely affected as opposed to the benefits generated. Not all countries implement tax amnesty program success in implementing it. Experiences in the tax amnesty implementation in several countries showed that the program of tax amnesty are carried out several times and the implementation time was easily anticipated by the taxpayer generally not as successful if the program of tax amnesty is only a one-time, non-recurring and can not be anticipated time of its implementation by the taxpayer. In 2016 the Government of Indonesia to implement tax amnesty program that will be implemented starting on July 1, 2016 to March 31, 2017. After going through the analysis based on the experience of implementation of tax amnesty program conducted by several other countries can be predicted that the tax amnesty program implemented by the Government of Indonesia will be a success. Tax amnesty program implemented is estimated to have a great opportunity to meet the expectations of increasing tax revenue, broaden the tax base, improve tax compliance significantly. However, for the hope of repatriation of assets of the taxpayer from abroad into the country seems not to be able to meet expectations.

On July 1, 2016, the Government established Law No. 11 of 2016 concerning Tax Amnesty. This law has been postponed several times, after tough discussions in the House of Representative (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat – DPR) since 2015. The failure to achieve tax revenues over the past few years has triggered the enactment of this law. The government sees that tax revenues are still low due to a lack of public awareness in reporting taxes, even though the government in the last few years has relied heavily on state revenues from the results of tax revenues. The World Bank notes that Indonesia's tax ratio in 2014 was only 10.84% ​​of Gross Domestic Income, while the average tax ratio of countries in the world was 14.81%. So the level of tax collectibility in Indonesia is still very small, so it is quite heavy in supporting state spending. The purpose of this study was to find out the benefits of tax amnesty as an effort to stimulate national income, to find out the magnitude of the tax amnesty contribution in increasing state revenues, and analyze the influence of several factors in increasing tax revenue after tax amnesty. The implementation of tax amnesty that ended at the end of March 2017 was quite good. The results showed that the number of taxpayers participating in the tax amnesty were 974,058, the amount was still small compared to the potential tax in the country. The amount of state revenue from the Tax amnesty is 107 trillion from 1,104.9 total realized tax revenues in 2016. An important point that must be done immediately after the tax amnesty is the administration update related to data and information management with an integrated IT system with all stakeholders, coordination of tax law enforcement through examination, and institutional transformation.

The development of tax evasion in a country, often the problem solving is done by voluntary disclosure or tax amnesty. Both voluntary disclosure or tax amnesty seem to be a dilemmatic policy between the desire to uphold the rule of law by prosecuting tax smugglers on the one hand by imposing tax amnesty on the other which is viewed from a legal point of view which negates these claims legally. Tax amnesty is a counterproductive action in the tax sanctions system that regulates the waiver of prosecution or reduces or eliminates claims against penalties or fines contained in the provisions of taxation legislation. The positive side of the tax amnesty program is an increase in state revenues from the tax sector. However, an increase in tax revenues is not always followed by an increase in tax ratio.

The analysis of the individual's choice of illegal tax evasion has typically ignored an alternative, legal method by which taxes can be reduced: tax avoidance. This article analyzes the joint individual choice of evasion and avoidance; it also examines optimal government policy in such a world. Its principal conclusion is that the existence of another channel for tax reduction alters many of the conclusions of the simpler evasion literature. Specifically, government policies that reduce evasion may not increase the tax base because avoidance may increase instead, and tax rate reductions may be a powerful tool for generating tax base increases because reductions make both evasion and avoidance less attractive. In addition, optimal government choices depend critically upon its objectives. The government selects larger values for its instruments when its goal is net revenue maximization or when those individuals who evade are not valued highly in its welfare function. It also appears that greater tax complexity generates more tax revenues.

<p>People Tax is the main source of state income. The better the tax policy of a country, the better the development of a country. One of the factors that influence the level of public awareness in paying taxes is corruption. Study shows that tax collection is one of them influenced by corruption. In the data of Corruption Perceptions Index 2016 reported by Transparency International, Indonesia is ranked 90 out of 176 countries. Tax evasion is a serious problem for many countries. Every year, the government loses revenue potential as many residents evade taxes in various ways. For this reason, the government implements tax amnesty. Tax amnesty is designed to permanently reduce the amount of underground economy activity, thereby increasing tax revenues in the future and developing countries can grow well.</p>
