Pengaturan Pajak Penghasilan (PPh) Terkait Transfer Pricing yang Dilakukan oleh Perusahaan Multinasional

Abstract

AbstractThe rise of activities regarding transfer pricing carried out by multinational corporation has the potential to generate state revenue in the taxation sector. The government, in this case the Tax Authority, has taken several preventive measures so that multinational corporation do not practice transfer pricing outside the arm's length principle. The occurrence of differences of opinion that occurs between multinational corporation that act as taxpayers and the Tax Authorities often occurs due to the lack of provisions regarding transfer pricing. Provisions regarding taxation in Indonesia regarding transfer pricing for the Tax Authority are quite comprehensive, although there are often practices regarding the abuse of transfer pricing. This practice has an impact on reducing state tax revenues because income tax (PPh) that should be included in the state treasury is transferred to another country where the company is affiliated.Keywords: Transfer Pricing; Multinational Corporation; Income Tax. AbstrakMaraknya kegiatan mengenai transfer pricing yang dilakukan oleh perusahaan multinasional sangat berpotensi pada penerimaan negara pada sektor perpajakan. Pemerintah dalam hal ini adalah Otoritas Pajak telah melakukan beberapa upaya pencegahan agar perusahaan multinasional tidak melakukan praktik transfer pricing diluar prinsip kewajaran dan kelaziman usaha atau arm’s length principle. Terjadinya perbedaan pendapat yang terjadi antara perusahaan multinasional yang bertindak sebagai Wajib Pajak dengan Otoritas Pajak seringkali terjadi dikarenakan adanya ketentuan yang masih kurang mengenai transfer pricing. Ketentuan mengenai perpajakan di Indonesia mengenai transfer pricing bagi Otoritas Pajak sudah cukup kompeherensif meskipun sering didapati praktik mengenai abuse of transfer pricing. Praktik tersebut berdampak pada berkurangnya penerimaan pajak negara dikaranekan pajak penghasilan (PPh) yang seharusnya masuk kedalam kas negara dialihkan ke negara lain ditempat perusahaan terafiliasi. Kata Kunci: Transfer Pricing; Perusahaan Multinasional; Pajak Penghasilan (PPh).
