Based on the latest technological developments, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become an important pillar in the digital transformation of taxation systems. Here are four main benefits of AI application in the context of modern tax administration:

1. Administration (Service Improvement and Efficiency)

AI helps facilitate access to services for Taxpayers and automates repetitive administrative tasks.

  • Online Registration: NPWP registration and other administrative processes become faster and more efficient.
  • Virtual Assistant: Utilization of AI-based chatbots allows Taxpayers to get answers to their questions automatically 24/7.

This transformation shifts tax administration management to e-administration form, ensuring easy access to encourage voluntary compliance.

2. Supervision (Compliance Prediction)

AI technology is used to improve supervision effectiveness with predictive approaches:

  • Reporting Prediction: The system can predict Surat Pemberitahuan (SPT - Tax Return) reporting compliance patterns.
  • Revenue Estimation: AI helps make more precise tax revenue estimates.

The use of AI in this supervision has proven to have higher accuracy compared to traditional statistical methods and can significantly reduce human error risks.

3. Evasion Detection (Fraud Prevention)

AI plays a crucial role in maintaining tax system integrity by detecting potential fraud and tax evasion:

  • Real-time Analysis: Allows real-time transaction checking.
  • Anomaly Patterns: Processes massive data (big data) to recognize suspicious patterns or hidden anomalies difficult to detect by manual analysis.

This allows tax authorities to detect violations instantly and take necessary preventive actions.

4. Risk Analysis (Compliance Risk Management)

AI application enables more objective and data-driven risk evaluation:

  • Historical Evaluation: Evaluates historical event patterns and past data to automatically determine Taxpayer risk levels.
  • Risk Profile: With accurate risk profiles, tax authorities can create better Compliance Risk Management systems.

As a result, examination or audit target determination is based on objective data and clear risk indicators, not just random sampling.
