Taxpayer awareness is a condition in which the taxpayer knows, understands and implements tax provisions voluntarily, so the higher the level of taxpayer awareness, the better so as to increase taxpayer compliance.

This research uses data from KPP Pratama Bandung Cicadas to highlight concerns about taxpayer compliance, especially with regard to self-assessed taxes. When it comes to tax knowledge, awareness, penalties and compliance, researchers have different opinions. The results highlight the influence of understanding, awareness, and impact on taxpayer behaviour as well as the collection of government taxes. An analysis of the relationship between taxpayer compliance and tax knowledge, awareness, and penalties is carried out through the use of descriptive and verification techniques in a quantitative research. Taxpayers of KPP Pratama Bandung Cicadas will be surveyed to determine the extent to which tax knowledge, awareness, and penalties influence compliance. This is done without comparing or linking the factors. Slovin was used to extract 100 taxpayers from a total of 300,740. We use quantitative and descriptive statistics. Tax compliance and tax policy should be improved as a result of this study. According to the research, people who are more aware of the tax rules are better able to pay their taxes. Enforcing tax rules through the use of tax penalties increases taxpayer understanding. According to the results of the research, the increase in taxpayer compliance at the Bandung Cicadas Primary Tax Service Office can be attributed to increased tax knowledge, awareness, and penalties. Given that these three factors statistically influence taxpayer compliance, it is important to study them together. Tax education, taxpayer awareness, and the effectiveness of tax penalties are some of the recommendations made in the study to increase taxpayer compliance.

Indonesia's national development can be advanced by optimizing domestic sources of funds, particularly through effective taxation. This research aims to analyze the influencing factors of taxpayers on taxpayer compliance, with moderating variables at the Tax Service Office (KPP) Pratama Denpasar Barat. The method of this research is Moderated Regression Analysis (MRA). The research results show that understanding tax regulations and the role of tax consultants has a positive effect on taxpayer compliance, while taxpayer awareness and tax sanctions have a negative effect on taxpayer compliance. Furthermore, risk preference as a moderating variable is able to weaken the influence of understanding tax regulations, taxpayer awareness, tax sanctions, and the role of tax consultants on taxpayer compliance. The conclusion of this research shows that factors from taxpayers have an important role in increasing taxpayer compliance, especially at the KPP Pratama Denpasar Barat. The advice that can be given from this research is for practitioners to carry out regular outreach both offline and online regarding the importance of taxes and show transparency in the use of taxes so that mutual trust and awareness arise between the government and society

  • Ahmad Ramli + 2 more

Purpose: This study examines how religiosity and tax penalties influence taxpayer compliance, with taxpayer awareness as an intervening variable in the land and building tax (PBB) in Mataram City. Methodology: The Partial Least Square-Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) approach was used to assess both the measurement and structural models. The data was collected through a questionnaire with 100 respondents using purposive sampling techniques. Results: Taxpayer awareness significantly influences taxpayer compliance. Religiosity directly affects taxpayer compliance but does not influence taxpayer awareness. Tax penalties influence taxpayer awareness but not taxpayer compliance. Taxpayer awareness mediates the relationship between tax penalties and taxpayer compliance but not mediates the relationship between religiosity and taxpayer compliance. Findings: There is a positive and significant direct influence of the taxpayer awareness variable on taxpayer compliance and religiosity on taxpayer compliance. Tax penalties positively and significantly indirectly influence taxpayer compliance, with taxpayer awareness as an intervening variable. Novelty: The study integrates internal (religiosity) and external (tax penalties) factors in taxpayer behavior. Originality: Provides empirical insights on why tax penalties influence awareness but not direct compliance. Conclusion: Strengthening taxpayer awareness is crucial in improving compliance. The role of religiosity in taxation is inconsistent and varies by perception. Type of Paper: Empirical research paper.
