The results of the study show that marketing communication has a positive and significant effect on taxpayer commitment and tax payment decisions. Trust also has a positive and significant effect on taxpayers' commitments and tax payment decisions. In addition, taxpayer commitment has a positive and significant effect on the decision to pay taxes. The test results also prove that taxpayer commitment is able to significantly mediate the influence of marketing communication and trust on taxpayer decisions. The determination coefficient value showed that marketing communication and trust were able to explain the taxpayer's commitment by 41.3 percent, while the decision to pay taxes could be explained by the marketing communication, trust, and commitment of the taxpayer by 55.9 percent. These findings show that improving the quality of marketing communication and trust can strengthen taxpayer commitment which ultimately encourages an increase in tax compliance decisions at KPP Pratama Lubuk Pakam.]]>
