# Aceh vehicle tax 2026: rates, online checks and payment

**How much is vehicle tax in Aceh, and how do I check and pay it?**

Aceh's vehicle tax (PKB) rate is 1% for a first vehicle, rising to 1.2% for a second vehicle and 1.4% for a third; for a fourth and later vehicle the Qanun only allows up to 6% and sets no fixed rate, plus a 66% opsen for the regency or city. Check the bill through e-Samsat Aceh or Action Mobile, and pay annual tax there or in the national SIGNAL app. Late payment incurs 1% interest a month for up to 24 months.

## Aceh vehicle tax rates

Aceh PKB rates (provincial regulation) and combined rate with 66% opsen

| Ownership | PKB rate | PKB + opsen |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First vehicle | 1% | 1.66% |
| 2nd vehicle | 1.2% | 1.992% |
| 3rd vehicle | 1.4% | 2.324% |

Under Qanun Aceh 4/2024 Article 9, a second vehicle is taxed at 1.2% and a third at 1.4%; for the fourth and further vehicles the Qanun only says the rate 'may be set progressively up to 6%', with no fixed figure, and no Pergub setting it was found. Ownership is counted by name and NIK (individuals) or NIB (companies); the Qanun does not exclude motorcycles or company vehicles. Public transport, ambulances, fire engines, social/religious bodies and government vehicles pay a flat 0.5%. The progressive rate was waived throughout 2025 (Pergub 37/2024) and, according to BPKA, also during the amnesty that ended on 30 April 2026.

## How to check and pay Aceh vehicle tax online

BPKA's e-Samsat Aceh at https://esamsat.acehprov.go.id/: enter the plate number (the BL prefix is preset), the NIK on the owner's e-KTP (the name must match the STNK) and the last 5 digits of the chassis number (nomor rangka) to see the bill and get a payment code. Pay the code at a Bank Aceh Syariah ATM or teller, in the Action Mobile app, at a Pos Indonesia counter or in the PosPay app, then have the STNK endorsed at a Samsat office, MPP or Samsat Keliling with the owner's original e-KTP. Private owners can also check and pay with the national SIGNAL app (Korlantas), which lists Aceh.

- [SIGNAL (Samsat Digital Nasional)](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.signal.id): National Samsat app for paying the annual PKB and SWDKLLJ online and getting an e-TBPKP; Aceh is one of the 27 provinces it lists. Published on Google Play by Korlantas Polri - Pembina Samsat Nasional; private (non-company) owners only.
- [e-Samsat Aceh (web)](https://esamsat.acehprov.go.id/): BPKA's own web service for checking the PKB bill by plate number, owner's NIK and the last 5 digits of the chassis number; it issues a payment code to pay at Bank Aceh Syariah, the Action Mobile app, Pos Indonesia or PosPay. Linked from the BPKA website; the STNK must then be endorsed at a Samsat office. No BPKA app was found on Google Play.
- [Action Mobile (Bank Aceh Syariah)](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aceh.action): Mobile banking app of Bank Aceh Syariah, the regional development bank; the e-Samsat Aceh page names it as a channel for paying the e-Samsat payment code, and its Play description lists tax payments. Google Play developer: PT. Bank Aceh Syariah; requires a Bank Aceh account.

## Aceh vehicle tax relief in 2026

**Pemutihan Pajak Kendaraan Bermotor Aceh (Pembebasan Pajak atas Kendaraan Bermotor) 2025-2026.** Ran 12 November 2025–30 April 2026 and has ended.

100% of unpaid PKB principal arrears except the current tax year, so owners paid only the current year's PKB principal plus the SWDKLLJ insurance contribution (BPKA); 100% of the administrative sanctions for late PKB and for late BBNKB. The arrears write-off did not cover late PKB on the first registration of a vehicle or on vehicles being moved out of Aceh (mutasi keluar). BPKA also said no progressive PKB was charged during the programme, although the Pergub text does not mention it. Available at all Samsat offices in Aceh and Samsat Keliling, Drive Thru, MPP and Samsat Gampong services. It began on 12 November 2025, was announced by Samsat offices as extended into 2026, and ended on 30 April 2026; no new programme had been announced by 25 September 2026.

Legal basis: Peraturan Gubernur Aceh Nomor 25 Tahun 2025 tentang Pembebasan Pajak atas Kendaraan Bermotor (ditetapkan dan diundangkan 12 November 2025; Pasal 5: berlaku sampai dengan 30 April 2026). [Official announcement](https://peraturan.bpk.go.id/Details/356548/pergub-prov-nad-no-25-tahun-2025-pembebasan-pajak-atas-kendaraan-bermotor)

### Other 2026 reductions

- Persons with disabilities: a 50% PKB discount and a 100% late-fine waiver, launched by the provincial government on 27 May 2025 and still promoted by Samsat Takengon in July 2026 (legal basis cited: Qanun 4/2024 and Pergub 34/2024, whose Article 159(4) allows a 50% reduction on application for vehicles modified for disabled owners). Conditions per Samsat: vehicle in the owner's own name and the owner registered with Dinas Sosial Aceh (KPD card).
- Vehicles powered by renewable energy (for example battery electric vehicles) are outside the PKB object under Qanun 4/2024 Article 6(3)(d), unless other laws provide otherwise.
- Samsat Takengon (Aceh Tengah) gave small prizes, such as tumblers in August 2026, to owners who paid PKB through SIGNAL; this is a reward, not a tax reduction.

## Penalty for paying Aceh vehicle tax late

Late PKB incurs interest of 1% a month for up to 24 months, with any part of a month counted as a full month; the same applies to opsen. The SWDKLLJ contribution has its own fine of 25% to 100% of the annual amount, capped at Rp100,000. (Provincial basis: Pergub Aceh Nomor 34 Tahun 2024 Pasal 23 ayat (1) (bunga 1% per bulan dari PKB terutang yang tidak atau kurang dibayar, dari tanggal jatuh tempo sampai tanggal pembayaran, paling lama 24 bulan, bagian bulan dihitung penuh 1 bulan, ditagih dengan STPA); Qanun Aceh Nomor 4 Tahun 2024 itself sets no PKB late-payment rate and leaves collection procedure to a Peraturan Gubernur (Pasal 75 ayat (1)).)
