Abstract :
The increase in the development in various fields triggers the need for land
and buildings whereas they are very limited. Since land and buildings are very
crucial for human life, it is natural if the acquisition of land and building is taxable
with BPHTB (Duty on Land and Building Right Acquisition). The research problems
were as follows: how about the regulation on BPHTB levying system on land and/or
building transact, how about the regulation on the role of PPAT/Notary on BPHTB
levying on land and building transact in Humbang Hasundutan Regency, and how
about fulfilling the principle of Justice in imposing sanction on PPAT in signing land
and building transact with unpaid BPHTB in Humbang Hasundutan Regency.
The research used juridical normative and descriptive analytic method with
socio-juridical empirical which studied legal provisions is a certain society.
Descriptive analysis was aimed to describe and explain the data in narrative form.
The result of the research shows that in its implementation BPHTB uses selfassessment
system and its official system as the verification system is done by the
Regent of Humbang Hasundutan in his Directive No. 26/2012. The official system,
related to the principle of law, Lex Inferiori derogat Lex Superiori, has violated the
prevailing law and regulation. PPAT/Notary plays a significant role in levying
BPHTB because, as a public official, he deals with land transact; he will sign it after
its BPHTB is paid off by the taxpayer. PPAT/Notary will sign a deed of land and
building transfer after the taxpayer submits the evidence of tax payment. The
imposition of sanction on PPAT in signing the deed of land and building transfer with
unpaid BPHTB in Humbang Hasundutan Regency does not fulfill the principle of
justice since there is the difference in the type of sanction between interim PPAT and
specific PPAT. A PPAT who violates against the regulation is imposed the sanction in
fine of Rp. 7,500,000 (seven million five hundred thousand rupiahs). The sanction is
not imposed on Specific PPAT and interim PPAT, whereas the three of them are the
same PPAT according to PP No. 37/1998 on the Regulation on PPAT Position.
Besides that, PPAT/Notary also plays his role in helping taxpayers calculate the
amount of BPHTB.
