Jakarta, Indonesia Sentinel — The Jakarta Provincial Government has officially imposed a 10 percent tax on various types of sports facilities, including the increasingly popular sport of padel, which has gained traction among young people in the capital.

The new tax regulation is outlined in Jakarta Revenue Agency (Bapenda) Chief Decree No. 257 of 2025, a second amendment to Decree No. 854 of 2024.

The measure is part of a broader effort to optimize regional revenue through entertainment taxes, specifically targeting recreational sports classified under the Local Tax on Certain Goods and Services (PBJT).
