General government revenue as % of GDP GGR_NGDP

Overview
Indonesia's government revenue stood at 13.73% in 2025, a decline of +0.82% from 2024. The IMF projects 13.73% by 2025. Indonesia ranked 175th globally.
Indonesia's government revenue has experienced significant fluctuations over the past 45 years, with a notable decline during the COVID-19 pandemic. The country's government revenue peaked at 19.45% of GDP in 2008, a period marked by strong economic growth driven by domestic consumption and investment. However, the revenue trough of 12.35% in 2020 highlights the severe impact of the pandemic on the country's fiscal position. As of 2025, Indonesia's government revenue has recovered to 13.73% of GDP, still ranking below several peer countries, including Turkmenistan, which recorded a slightly higher revenue of 13.82% during the same period. The relatively low ranking underscores the country's ongoing challenge to improve its fiscal resilience. A sustained increase in government revenue would likely require a combination of economic growth and structural reforms aimed at enhancing tax collection and reducing dependence on oil and gas exports.
