Indonesia–Singapore Tax Treaty for Indonesian Founders
For Indonesian founders operating through a Singapore holding company, the Indonesia-Singapore Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) is usually one of the more consequential pieces of the structure, and one of the least understood. The treaty was substantially updated in 2022, changing how capital gains, dividends, interest, and royalties are taxed between the two jurisdictions. Understanding what the treaty actually changed, and the conditions that must be met to access it, is essential before making structural decisions with long-term tax implications.
