Why Choose Us? Because You Deserve a Tax Consultant That Actually Gets It
Not Just Another Tax Firm. We’re Your Strategic Weapon in a World of Red Tape.
You’ve seen the typical pitch—“We’re experienced, we’re reliable, we’ll help you comply.”
Sure. That’s basic. That’s expected. That’s… table stakes.
We’re Stevia, and we’re rewriting the playbook on what a tax consultant in Indonesia should be.
We’re not here just to fill out your forms. We’re here to unlock the full financial potential of your business—while keeping the tax man satisfied.
What Makes Us Different?
We See the Big Picture (Even Before You Do)
Other consultants only see the numbers. We see your vision, your growth plans, and your pressure points—and we engineer tax strategies that align with it all. Want to scale? Exit? Restructure? Acquire? Let’s plan it before the tax authorities catch up.
We Speak Tax and Business
Our consultants are more than tax professionals. They’re ex-auditors, ex-CFOs, ex-investment guys who know how boardrooms work and how real businesses operate. We don’t just quote the law—we interpret it into moves that make business sense.
Speed, Clarity, and No Bureaucratic B.S.
No more weeks of waiting. No vague reports. No legalese fog. We deliver insights faster, speak in clear language, and execute with military precision. That’s why our clients trust us in moments of crisis and confidence.
Global Perspective. Local Muscle.
Foreign investor? Remote entrepreneur? International group? We understand DTA treaties, repatriation rules, and PE risks—because we’ve handled them across borders. But we also know the local nuances that never show up in English PDFs. We play both fields—global and local—better than anyone.
Custom-Built, Never Copy-Pasted
Your business is one-of-a-kind. So why should your tax advice be cookie-cutter? We don’t believe in recycled strategies. Every solution is handcrafted based on your goals, risk profile, and even your investor expectations. You’re not just a client—you’re a puzzle we love solving.
We Fight for You—Not the System
Here’s the truth: sometimes the system isn’t fair. When audits hit, or disputes arise, you want a partner who goes beyond checklists. We’ve gone to court. We’ve won restitutions. We’ve defended clients when things got messy. We don’t fold. We fight smart.
Still Wondering Why Us?
Because you’ve worked too hard to lose money to inefficient tax planning.
Because you don’t have time for second-guessing.
Because growth waits for no one—and red tape shouldn’t be what stops you.

Case Stories
Here are 3 compelling case stories that our tax consulting firm’s real-world impact for international clients. the challenge, the solution, and the result.
Case Story 1: Saving a U.S. Tech Startup from a $200,000 Tax Trap
Client: Trakchain Technologies (USA)
Industry: SaaS / Remote Services
Challenge:
The client was billing Indonesian enterprise clients through a Delaware C-Corp, with zero physical presence in Indonesia. Suddenly, they received a notification from local tax authorities: potential Permanent Establishment (PE) and back taxes owed—plus penalties.
Solution:
Stevia stepped in, ran a risk review, and restructured their invoicing model using a representative office with no revenue function. We drafted a PE risk defense letter, advised on withholding tax application, and negotiated with the KPP to avoid back tax penalties.
Result:
✅ No PE exposure confirmed
✅ $200,000+ in potential tax liabilities avoided
✅ Clean slate and a compliant structure moving forward
Case Story 2: Fixing a Messy VAT Audit for a German Manufacturer
Client: Eurasia Logistics GmbH (Germany)
Industry: Supply Chain / Manufacturing
Challenge:
The client was hit with a VAT audit after inconsistent reporting across bonded zones and multiple SKUs. Their in-house team didn’t fully understand Indonesian VAT input/output reconciliation, and things spiraled fast.
Solution:
We reconstructed 12 months of transaction records, mapped SKUs to the correct VAT codes, and represented them directly at the tax office. We also fixed three BPJS and withholding errors the client didn’t even know existed.
Result:
✅ VAT audit passed without penalty
✅ IDR 450 million VAT refund approved
✅ Internal team trained to prevent future issues
Case Story 3: Optimizing Cross-Border Payments for a Singapore VC Firm
Client: NeoGravity Ventures (Singapore)
Industry: Venture Capital
Challenge:
NeoGravity was funding multiple Indonesian startups but losing money on withholding tax during dividend and interest payments. They also faced delays with profit repatriation due to regulatory missteps.
Solution:
Stevia restructured their SPVs and leveraged Indonesia–Singapore DTA treaties to lower withholding tax rates. We advised on proper documentation to support treaty claims and guided the fund on timing repatriation within regulatory limits.
Result:
✅ Withholding tax rate reduced from 20% to 10%
✅ Dividend payments flowed freely
✅ Fully compliant repatriation strategy for future exits
