Criminal Sanctions in Indonesian Taxation Law: Re-Evaluating Proportionality and Legal Certainty


ABSTRACTThis study examines the implementation of criminal law policy within the field of taxation, with a particular emphasis on the application of the ultimum remedium principle and the implications of the repeal of Article 13A of the Law on General Provisions and Tax Procedures (UU KUP). In this context, taxation is understood as an integral part of criminal legal policy and the enforcement of law concerning tax-related offences that carry criminal consequences. The study aims to provide policy recommendations for relevant stakeholders in designing criminal enforcement strategies in taxation, ensuring that the ultimum remedium principle remains the central reference for maintaining proportionality and justice. The research employs a normative juridical approach, focusing on regulatory analysis and the examination of legal arguments regarding the impact of Article 13A’s removal on the direction of tax criminal law policy. The findings highlight that the presence of the ultimum remedium principle in tax law is essential to ensuring a balance between state interests and the protection of taxpayers' rights. The repeal of Article 13A may give rise to new dynamics in the practice of tax criminal enforcement, particularly in shaping enforcement strategies that are responsive to current socio-economic conditions.Keywords: formulation, criminal law, policy, coping, taxes

Etika dan integritas menjadi pilar utama yang meneguhkan kehormatan profesi ini. Fenomena saat ini marwah (spirit) tersebut belum sepenuhnya terjaga. Salah satu persoalan mendasar yang dihadapi profesi ini adalah lemahnya penegakan kode etik akibat fragmentasi organisasi advokat, dan juga berbagai alasan pembenar untuk mempermudah seseorang lulus menjadi advokat. Ketika advokat yang dikenai sanksi etik dapat berpindah ke organisasi lain tanpa konsekuensi nyata, maka kredibilitas profesi pun menjadi taruhan. Inilah urgensi yang mela...
