Abstract

Timely submission of annual income tax returns is a central aspect of formal tax compliance, while business record preparation and access to taxpayer support may influence administrative readiness. To examine the associations of bookkeeping record completeness and tax service accessibility with timely filing among individual business taxpayers in West Pontianak, Indonesia. : A cross-sectional study comprising 200 individual business taxpayers in West Pontianak District was conducted for the 2025 tax year. Ten-item scores assessed bookkeeping completeness and tax service accessibility (range 10–50), and timely filing was defined as submission by 31 March 2026. Binary logistic regression estimated mutually adjusted odds ratios (ORs). 118 respondents (59.0%) were classified as timely filers. Mean scores were 34.10 (SD 6.98) for bookkeeping and 35.12 (SD 6.88) for service access. Bookkeeping was positively associated with timely filing (adjusted OR 1.154, 95% CI 1.092–1.220; p < .001), whereas service access was not statistically significant after mutual adjustment (adjusted OR 1.041, p = 0.102). The in-sample AUC was 0.756. More complete bookkeeping records were independently associated with timely annual return filing; tax service accessibility may operate through more complex or indirect pathways that a composite linear specification does not fully capture.

Abstract

Timely annual tax reporting requires taxpayers to understand administrative obligations and complete electronic procedures, but evidence often concerns broad compliance attitudes rather than reporting dates. This study examined tax knowledge, perceived fairness, and electronic filing ease as correlates of timely reporting among individual micro, small, and medium enterprise taxpayers in Tangerang City, Indonesia. A cross-sectional survey was conducted from December 2025 to January 2026 within a November 2025–February 2026 research period. Purposive recruitment with equal district quotas yielded 240 respondents from Tangerang, Karawaci, and Cibodas. Tax knowledge was assessed using ten objective questions; fairness and filing ease were measured using eight-item scales. The outcome was submission of the tax-year 2024 return by 31 March 2025. Binary logistic regression adjusted for education, monthly turnover, years registered as a taxpayer, and filing assistance. Overall, 145 respondents (60.4%) reported on time. Tax knowledge was positively associated with timely reporting (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.243, 95% CI [1.111, 1.391], p < .001), as was filing ease (aOR = 2.048, 95% CI [1.376, 3.048], p < .001). Fairness was not statistically significant after adjustment (aOR = 1.379, 95% CI [0.966, 1.968], p = .077). Sensitivity analyses retained this pattern, although estimates differed. The findings identify procedural knowledge and usability as relevant correlates, supporting evaluation of targeted education and filing support without establishing causal effects.
