When your Google AdSense payment reaches the threshold, you may receive a notification that your Tax Residency Certificate (Surat Keterangan Domisili Pajak) has expired. To continue receiving payments without interruption, you must upload a new certificate—something Indonesian creators are now required to obtain through CoreTAX, the updated platform that replaced DJP Online.
This guide walks you through every step, based entirely on the video tutorial transcript.
Why You Need to Renew Your AdSense Tax Residency Certificate
Google AdSense periodically requires proof of your tax residency status. If the certificate expires—such as on January 1, 2025 in the example from the transcript—you must submit a new one to continue receiving payments and avoid withholding issues.
Previously, Indonesian taxpayers could generate the certificate via DJP Online → KSWP, but this service has been discontinued. All requests are now done through CoreTAX.
Step 1: Log In to the CoreTAX System
You will need:
- Your registered NIK
- Your old password (you will be prompted to change it)
Once logged in, you will enter your CoreTAX dashboard.
Step 2: Request the Electronic Certificate Authorization Code
Inside CoreTAX:
- Go to Portal Saya
- Select Kode Otorisasi DJP
- Enter your CoreTAX password
- Click Save
This code is required before you can digitally sign documents later.
Step 3: Create an Administrative Service Request
Navigate to:
Layanan Wajib Pajak → Layanan Administrasi → Buat Permohonan Layanan
Choose:
- Document type AS03 – Surat Keterangan Domisili
- Surat Keterangan Domisili Subjek Pajak Dalam Negeri
Click Save.
Step 4: Fill In the Case Workflow (Alur Kasus)
This section may load slowly—be patient.
Important fields to complete:
- Start Month: Choose when your certificate should begin (e.g., March)
- End Month: Must be in the same year (e.g., December 2025)
- Transaction Counterparty:
Google (Google Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd.)- Country of Counterparty:
Singapore- TIN Number:
20081794R- Transaction Description: Google AdSense Payment
All of this is directly mentioned in the transcript.
Step 5: Generate the PDF Document
Click Create PDF, then fill out:
- Title: Permohonan Surat Keterangan Domisili SPDNAS
- Document Type: Original
- Classification: Confidential
- Document Description: Google AdSense Payment
- Tag: Baru
- Tax Type: PPh Pasal 21
- Leave the Tax Year and Tax Month blank
Save the document.
Step 6: Sign the Document Digitally
Click Sign / Tanda Tangani, then Save.
This final step validates the submission.
How Long Does the Certificate Take?
The transcript explains that generating the certificate takes approximately 24 hours.
After that, you can check:
Dokumen Saya → Refresh
Once issued, the certificate will appear with a date (example: 21 March 2025).

Upload the Tax Residency Certificate to Google AdSense
In your AdSense account:
- Open the tax section
- Upload the downloaded certificate
- Click Submit
Verification typically completes much faster than the stated 7 working days.
