"To Increase Acceptance, Foreigners Can Now Participate in State-Organized Auctions"

Dream - Participants in government auctions must be prepared to face new competitors. The Directorate General of State Assets (DJKN) of the Ministry of Finance stated that foreign citizens (WNA) who do not have a Tax Identification Number (NPWP) are allowed to participate in auctions organized by the state starting this year. This provision is part of the government's relaxation for foreign citizens, which is regulated in Minister of Finance Regulation (PMK) Number 122 of 2023 concerning Auction Implementation Guidelines.

"Requirements for Foreign Nationals to Participate in an Auction"

Head of the Sub-Directorate of Auction Policy at the Directorate General of State Assets of the Ministry of Finance, Diki Zenal Abidin, conveyed a number of regulations that must be fulfilled by foreign nationals (WNA) to participate in the auction.

"Self Identity"

To be able to participate in the auction process, foreign residents who do not have a Tax Identification Number (NPWP) can show identification documents from their home country.

"Foreigners, the auction requirement must have a Tax Identification Number (NPWP) but now we give relaxation, those who don't have an NPWP, not Indonesian citizens, they have their own identity according to their country's issuance,"

The following 'Bahasa' text translated to 'English' while preserving any html tags is: "word Diki at the DJKN headquarters, Central Jakarta, quoted from Merdeka.com, Friday, January 26, 2024."

"Objects that Can be Purchased"

Although allowed to participate in auctions, foreign citizens who do not have MPWP (Foreigner's Property Ownership Certificate) cannot participate in all auction objects organized by the state. One example is auction objects in the form of land with ownership rights that cannot be followed.

"I underline, it will still depend on the auction object. If the auction object cannot be owned by foreigners, it won't be possible. For example, land with ownership rights."

ungkap Diki.

Diki said, granting participation permission for foreign nationals who do not have NPWP (Taxpayer Identification Number) is to optimize state revenue. Considering that not all state auction tax objects are of interest to Indonesian citizens.

"Here I give an example, when the object turns out to be not enough for domestic needs but interesting for foreign countries, well if it is forced in this country it won't sell, there are several aspects and several objects, but as long as it is not prohibited by the law."

"katanya." translates to "he/she said."

"Previously, the Directorate General of State Assets (DJKN) of the Ministry of Finance recorded a total transaction value of Rp44.34 trillion from auctions throughout the year 2023. This achievement is the highest record in the history of auctions in Indonesia. "The auction value is the highest record in history, yes, from the target of Rp33 trillion, we reached Rp44.34 trillion," said Joko Prihanto, the Auction Director of DJKN."
