Dispute between taxpayers and tax office generally arises upon disagreement on the result of tax audit process, or in certain cases, upon disagreement on particular decision by the tax office. While the standard statute of limitation in Indonesia is 5 years, taxpayers are exposed to tax audit for those open years and thus have to prepare and maintain tax and other relevant documentation whenever the controversy comes.
