There are various ways that can be done to overcome the plastic waste problem in Indonesia, one of them being recycling. However, there are several factors that influence the development of the plastic recycling industry in Indonesia, tax being one of them. The Indonesian Plastic Recycling Association stated that tax, specifically the imposition of 10% VAT is one of the inhibiting factors for the development of the plastic recycling industry. Therefore, this research aims to determine the form of incentive that can be given to support the plastic recycling industry in Indonesia.
