East Kalimantan vehicle tax rates
The PKB rate is set by the provincial regulation. Since 5 January 2025 regencies and cities also charge an opsen of 66% of the PKB on the same notice. The combined column is simple arithmetic before any regional discount or tax-base reduction.
| Ownership | PKB rate | PKB + opsen |
|---|---|---|
| First vehicle | 0.8% | 1.328% |
| 2nd vehicle | 0.9% | 1.494% |
| 3rd vehicle | 1% | 1.66% |
| 4th vehicle | 1.1% | 1.826% |
| 5th and later vehicle | 1.2% | 1.992% |
Progressive rates apply only to private vehicles under the same name, NIK and/or address; under Pergub 1/2025 they cover two- and three-wheelers of 200 cc and above and four-wheelers of the sedan, jeep, station wagon, minibus, microbus and pickup types.
