Easy Way to Download and Install iOS 18, Does Your iPhone Get It?

The 128GB version of the iPhone 16 is priced at S$1,299 or equivalent to USD995 (Rp15,417,634.25). The taxable or customs value is goods above USD500.

In this case, the customs value = value of goods – USD 500, or USD 995 – USD 500 = USD 495, which is equivalent to IDR 7,628,791 (Google exchange rate when this news was written).

Import duty is calculated at 10 percent of the customs value or 10 percent x 7,628,791 = Rp. 762,879 or rounded up to Rp. 763,000.

Import value, calculated as customs value plus import duty, or, the import value is Rp 7,628,791 + 763,000 = Rp 8,391,791.

Meanwhile, VAT is calculated at 11 percent of the import value, or VAT = 11 percent x Rp 8,391,791, or Rp 923,097.

So the total tax to be paid is import duty and VAT, or Rp. 763,000 + Rp. 923,097 = Rp. 1,686,097.

Income tax for NPWP owners: import value x 10 percent or 8,391,791 x 10 percent = Rp. 839,179

Income tax for non-NPWP owners: import value x 20 percent or IDR 8,391,791 x 20 percent = IDR 1,678,358.

Import duty: IDR 763,000/ PPn: IDR 923,097/ Income tax: IDR 839,179 (NPWP) and IDR 1,678,358 (non NPWP).

So, if you buy the cheapest version of the iPhone 16 from Singapore, for example, the total money you have to spend is:

Rp. 15,418,000 + 763,000 + 923,097 + 1,678,358 = or equivalent to Rp. 16 million or Rp. 17 million.
