- Abstract
This study aims to design a digital tax scheme based on a case study of the effort to tax Booking.com. This study used a qualitative case study methodology. Articles related to tax subjects and tax objects in a tax treaty are secondary data. Designing a digital tax on a case study on Booking.com starts by determining the tax subject, followed by its tax object. Based on Article 5 (2a) of the tax treaty Indonesia – Netherlands, the term permanent establishment shall include a place of management. The publication of booking.com stated that it was registered and based in Amsterdam in the Netherlands. In Article 5 (2b), the term permanent establishment shall include a branch, and the publication of Booking.com states that support companies do not render the service and do not own, operate, or manage the website or any other website. New designs should add additional criteria to determine whether booking.com is a permanent establishment from an income perspective. This study contributes to both the equity principal tax treaty between domicile and source-country partners. Practically, it can be an alternative to ratifying the tax treaty of Indonesia with potential source income from Indonesia with tax domicile in contracting country partners.
