Summary

Introduction

The issue of taxpayer non-compliance is a serious challenge faced by tax authorities in achieving revenue and hindering tax performance. One of the efforts made by the government to improve compliance is by imposing tax sanctions. The application of tax sanctions is aimed at creating taxpayer compliance. Hopkin (2014) state that heavier sanctions can improve tax compliance as long as the procedure is seen as fair by the public. According to Chooi (2020), the effort to increase taxpayer awareness to pay taxes is the core of tax regulations and the imposition of sanctions in the field of taxation. The taxpayers’ knowledge about tax sanctions is still very minimal so that the government needs to play an active role in communicating the tax regulations and its consequences for non-compliance
