Before 30 October 2022, taxpayers must submit a monthly/quarterly PIT withholding declaration (Form 05KK/TNCN) regardless of whether there is a tax deduction or not, as long as wages and salaries are paid.
From 30 October 2022, the taxpayer who is an organization or individual paying income in the case of monthly or quarterly PIT declaration is not required to submit a PIT return if in that month or quarter there is no withholding of PIT of the income recipient.
