The Central Bureau of Statistics as a state institution providing statistics responded to the Covid-19 pandemic by taking part in providing data through the Covid-19 Impact Survey on Business Actors Volume 1 which was held on 10 - 26 July 2020 by Computer Assisted Web and Self Interviewing or Online Survey. This survey aims to provide the latest indicators of business actors affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. This study specifically aims to examine the decline in income of business actors in NTT due to the Covid-19 pandemic by using ordinal logistic regression analysis. The variables analyzed in this study are the decrease of income, business location, business scale, business field, working hour, employee constraint, raw material constraint, customer constraint, and internet usage. The result is that almost half (49,50 percent) of business actors in NTT experienced a decline in income in the “moderate” category or in the range of 21-60 percent.
