Directorate General of Taxes Launches Mass Employee Residential Identity Number (NIK) Validation & Registration Portal to Validate the Employee with Temporary Tax ID (999xxx)

The Directorate General of Taxes (”DJP”) has officially released a new feature on Portal NPWP versi 2.1, enabling companies and government institutions to validate and register employee’s Residential Identity Number (NIK) in bulk. The purpose of this feature is to validate employees who are registered under temporary Tax ID (999xxx) and to enable the issuance of proper Withholding Tax Art. 21 Slip. This update supports seamless payroll processing and aligns with the NIK as Single Identity Number for Tax Administration.

Why is Residential Identity Number (NIK) validation important?

  • Withholding Tax Slip A1/A2 cannot be issued if employers continue using temporary Tax ID (999xxx)
  • Once registered, the company must cancel the Withholding Tax Art. 21 Slip that uses the temporary Tax ID (999xxx) and reissue the employee’s Withholding Tax Art. 21 Slip
