Abstract

According to the current situation, the Department of Revenue focuses on enhancing tax compliance through electronic systems, aiming to elevate the department and align with government policies that stimulate small-scale investment and financial measures. This initiative aims to motivate both medium-sized enterprises and SMEs to engage with benefits provided by the government, impacting tax compliance via electronic systems. To bolster the department’s effectiveness, efforts include improving service convenience, system development for user-friendliness, and efficiency to simplify transactions. Clear guidance on tax payment processes and benefits fosters positive perceptions and suggestions that can increase motivation for entrepreneurs including 6 approaches, providing discounts or special benefits for those who pay their taxes on time or promotions that increase the business value of entrepreneurs incentivizing timely payments. Adjustments and continuous system upgrades aim to instill confidence and satisfaction among users, emphasizing the significance of lawful tax payments and fostering sustainable compliance practices for the future.
