The purpose of this research are to identify Muslim taxpayers’ perception towards tax rabate over income zakat payments in Indonesia and explain the factors that affect it. This research uses data collection methods with a closed questionnaire and a total number of 100 respondents into the research sample. The answer of closed questions that represent the observed variables were then  being analyzed by value of Structural Equation Modeling which is run by AMOS 22 programme. From the results of the questionnaire, this research found that important to know the halal status of the tax rabate on zakat paid, the legal consciousness of a person, and the religiosity of a person plays a role  in giving positive perceptions toward tax rabate over zakat payments. However, if seen from  the results of the model formed by SEM analysis, it’s found that halal-haram aspects and religiosity of taxpayers are positive significant factor for growing perceptions toward tax rabate over zakat payments, but legal consciousness are not significant factor for growing perceptions toward tax  rabate over zakat payments. This research was conducted in the context of proposed tax policy. This research will definitely play an important role for the countries or tax policy makers related to zakat, and academics in understanding the perception of Muslim taxpayers towards tax rabate over income zakat payments in Indonesia.
