As the largest source of state budget revenue, the government continually increases tax revenues, one of which is by providing comprehensive tax reforms to the public. The government's goal to maximize revenue in the taxation sector is contrary to the company's goal as a taxpayer, namely, trying to reduce the tax burden to obtain greater profits while still complying with government tax regulations. Hence, companies need to prepare a tax plan. This study aimed to identify the application of tax planning to minimize the payment of Value Added Tax (VAT) and PPh Article 4 Paragraph (2) at PT.
