Ease of Reporting MSME Annual Tax Return with Coretax

Arunika Consulting Team

The year 2026 marks the full era of Coretax Administration System use in Annual Tax Return reporting. For Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME - Usaha Mikro, Kecil, dan Menengah) actors, this new system promises ease and data integration far better than the previous DGT Online system.

How is the experience of reporting MSME Annual Tax Return (Final PPh 0.5%) in Coretax? Hereโ€™s the review.

Coretax Superior Features for MSMEs

1. Pre-populated Payment Data

One of the most helpful features is auto-filled Final PPh payment data. If throughout 2025 you routinely deposited Final PPh 0.5% every month with the correct billing code, that data will immediately appear in your SPT draft. No need to retype NTPN (Tax Payment Nomination Number) one by one!

2. Real-time Validation

When filling in the list of assets or obligations, the system performs format validation directly. This reduces the risk of reject at submit time due to data format errors.

3. User-Friendly Display

The Coretax interface is designed more modernly with clear step-by-step (wizard) guidance. The language used is also easier to understand by tax laypeople.

Brief Steps to Report MSME SPT in Coretax

  1. Login to the Coretax portal.
  2. Select the Annual Tax Return menu.
  3. Select Tax Year 2025.
  4. The system will detect your profile. If you are a pure MSME, select the PP 55/2022 (0.5%) tariff option.
  5. Verify Gross Turnover: Check the monthly turnover recap that appears. Correct if there are discrepancies.
  6. Fill Asset & Debt List: Enter year-end 2025 balances.
  7. Fill Family List: Update if there are additions/reductions of family members.
  8. Submit: Send SPT and get verification code (can be via email/WA).

Tips for Smooth Reporting

  • Prepare Archives: Even though pre-populated, still prepare physical/digital deposit proof archives just in case there is miss data in the system.
  • Update Profile: Ensure KLU (Business Field Classification) data and contact data in your Coretax profile are the latest.

Coretax makes taxes easier, but diligence is still number one.
