<![CDATA[Tax compliance remains a major challenge, yet the influence of cultural values, particularly among tax consultants who shape taxpayers’ compliance decisions, remains underexplored. This study examines the influence of Hofstede's cultural dimensions on tax compliance among registered tax consultants in Indonesia. A quantitative explanatory research design was employed using a survey of 117 registered tax consultants in Bali. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The empirical results support all proposed hypotheses. H1 and H4 are supported, indicating that power distance and uncertainty avoidance positively influence tax compliance, while H2 and H3 are supported, demonstrating that individualism and masculinity negatively influence tax compliance. The regression model is statistically significant (p 0.001) and explains 48.5% of the variance in tax compliance (R² = 0.485). The findings show that cultural values are important determinants of tax compliance among tax consultants, complementing traditional economic and institutional explanations. Tax authorities and professional associations should therefore integrate cultural and behavioral considerations into tax education, ethics training, and compliance programs to strengthen voluntary compliance.]]>
