The importance of business licensing as a matter of legality is a manifestation of legally valid permits given by the government to business actors to carry out their business officially. The birth of the Job Creation Law gave birth to a business licensing system which previously contained the Online Single Submission system version 1.1 which was later developed into a risk-based approach/RBA or based on the level of risk of the business to be carried out. The aim of this research is to determine the implementation of business licensing for Surakarta City MSMEs through the Online Single Submission Risk Bassed Approach. This research method is empirical juridical legal research and uses a qualitative approach. This research uses primary data and secondary data. The primary data obtained came from interviews conducted at the Surakarta City Investment and One Stop Integrated Services Service. Then supported by secondary data obtained from library materials. Due to the convenience of the OSS-RBA system, system errors often occur or the server goes down, thus hampering the goal of facilitating business licensing, becoming a barrier for business actors to issue their business permits quickly. These obstacles make it difficult for business actors to log in or register on the OSS page, which means that the NIB is not immediately published. And many business people are still confused about the process flow for using OSS-RBA and are still blind to internet technology. However, despite these obstacles, the Surakarta City DPMPTSP has made various efforts to improve the quality of business licensing services in the City of Surakarta.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of Government Regulation Number 23 of 2018 in Klambir Lima Kebun Village, Hamparan Perak District, which focuses on its impact on Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). PP Number 23 of 2018 regulates the reduction of the Final Income Tax (PPh) rate for MSMEs from 1% to 0.5% for taxpayers with a turnover of less than IDR 4.8 billion per year. This policy aims to ease the tax burden, simplify calculations, and improve MSME taxpayer compliance, while encouraging the growth of new entrepreneurs. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis from MSME actors and village officials. The results of the study indicate that this tax rate reduction policy provides significant benefits for MSME actors in Klambir Lima Kebun Village. Business actors feel helped by the lower tax rate, so they can allocate more resources for business development. However, the level of taxpayer understanding of this regulation still varies. Most MSME actors do not fully understand the procedures for reporting and paying taxes in accordance with this policy, so they need further guidance and socialization from the government. This study concludes that the success of implementing PP Number 23 of 2018 at the village level is highly dependent on educational and mentoring efforts for MSME actors. This finding provides insight for the government in designing tax policies that are more inclusive and responsive to the needs of MSMEs.

This study aims to review the impact of tax avoidance on the debt maturity structure of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) based on existing literature. Tax avoidance provides MSMEs with the ability to improve short-term cash flow by reducing tax liabilities, which in turn allows for flexibility in managing debt, including extending debt maturity. With increased cash flow, MSMEs tend to rely more on debt as a financing source; however, they also face the risk of higher financing costs due to increased risk perceptions from lenders. The impact of tax avoidance on company reputation can also affect relationships with creditors, potentially leading to higher borrowing costs or difficulties in obtaining debt in the future. Although tax avoidance offers short-term benefits, MSMEs need to consider the potential long-term negative impacts, such as financial risks and reputational damage, when making debt management decisions. This study provides important insights for MSMEs in managing tax avoidance wisely, balancing financial benefits with the potential reputational impact.
