In recent years, digital taxation has been a hot discussion topic in many countries, including Indonesia. In Europe, tax authorities have questioned why ordinary people find it difficult to avoid taxes, while digital giants freely do so. In fact, fintech giants such as Amazon, Facebook, Uber, eBay, and Google have employed thousands of experts to find legal loopholes to avoid or reduce tax payment (The Guardian, 3/2/2019).

The digital tax problem was discussed during the G-20 ministerial meeting in Fukuoka, Japan, recently. One of the agreements during the meeting was to draft a digital tax initiative. It is expected that by 2020, the global digital tax can be introduced.
