The main revenue source
PBJT (pajak barang dan jasa tertentu, the tax on specific goods and services) covers hotels, restaurants, parking and entertainment. Provincial treasury data show it raised Rp4.13 trillion by June 2026.
It is the largest local tax line in Bali. Total local taxes reached Rp6.91 trillion, while own-source regional revenue (PAD) hit Rp9.28 trillion, up 7.26% on 2025.
Property and vehicle taxes
BPHTB, the tax on acquiring land and building rights, raised Rp743.4 billion. Buyers pay it when rights are registered, so it tracks land market activity.
Motor vehicle tax brought in Rp803.7 billion and vehicle transfer tax Rp602.8 billion. Cigarette tax fell 20.47%.
Visitor numbers
Bali received 2.59 million foreign visitors from January to May 2026, led by Australians. Domestic visitors in May totalled 2.3 million, up 3.81%.
Badung remains the main destination. The figures were presented by Supendi, head of the regional treasury office in Bali.
How to read the data
The figures come from the treasury and cover all of Bali's budgets, meaning the province, eight regencies and Denpasar. They show the overall picture, not any single area.
PBJT replaced the old separate hotel and restaurant taxes after national tax reform. News reports still often call it PHR.
Compare half-year figures with annual targets carefully, as Bali's peak season falls largely in the middle of the year.
