NTT State Revenue Reaches Rp1.94 Trillion by July 2026

Kupang — State revenue in East Nusa Tenggara (NTT) reached Rp1.94 trillion by 31 July 2026, equal to 55.26% of the annual target and up 12.18% year on year, according to the provincial office of the Directorate General of Treasury (DJPb) of the Ministry of Finance. Central-government and transfer spending brought total state expenditure in the province to Rp17.91 trillion, or 58.59% of the allocated budget.

The figures were released in a 3 September 2026 press statement on the performance of the national budget (APBN) within NTT up to the end of July 2026. The office reported that APBN implementation remained a key instrument supporting regional economic activity.

Revenue led by taxes and non-tax receipts

Tax revenue was the largest component of state revenue, amounting to Rp1.34 trillion, or 48.38% of its target. Within this category, income tax contributed Rp860.69 billion and value-added tax Rp545.25 billion, according to the DJPb release.

Customs and excise revenue showed the fastest growth, rising 92.19% year on year and reaching 168.16% of its annual target. The treasury office reported that this performance was driven mainly by higher receipts from imports and excise, including trade related to coffee, copra, candlenuts and cashews.

Non-tax state revenue (PNBP) stood at Rp600.81 billion, equivalent to 80.81% of its target. The release noted that services in sectors such as education and health contributed significantly to PNBP, including through public service agency (BLU) revenues.

Central spending and transfers to regions

Central-government expenditure in NTT reached Rp5.44 trillion, representing 52.45% of its ceiling and a 28.01% increase compared with the same period a year earlier, according to the DJPb office. The release described this spending as an important driver of regional economic activity.

Transfers to regional administrations and villages were substantially larger than direct central spending, totaling Rp12.47 trillion or 61.73% of the allocation by the end of July. This category covers funds distributed to the provincial government, district and municipal governments and villages.

Within the transfer categories, non-physical Special Allocation Funds (DAK Nonfisik) recorded the highest growth, increasing 18.23% year on year. Village Fund disbursement had reached 84.18% of the allocation for 3,137 villages; the DJPb office reported that several districts and regencies, including Alor, Ende, Manggarai, West Manggarai, West Sumba and Rote Ndao, had fully disbursed their Village Fund quotas.

Economic context

The treasury figures were released against a backdrop of solid regional growth. According to data presented by the NTT statistics office and reported by local media, the province’s economy expanded 5.01% year on year in the second quarter of 2026, with quarter-on-quarter growth of 7.11%. Accommodation and food services recorded the highest growth among business sectors, while public consumption and investment also supported overall performance.

Nationally, the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reported that Indonesia’s economy grew 5.29% year on year in the second quarter of 2026 and 3.73% compared with the previous quarter. This placed NTT’s second-quarter growth above the national quarter-on-quarter figure.

Regional budget position

The DJPb office also highlighted the consolidated regional budget position in NTT. Regional governments recorded Rp11.75 trillion in revenue, equal to 43.10% of their target, and Rp10.17 trillion in expenditure by the end of July, producing a surplus of around Rp1.58 trillion. Operating expenditure was the largest spending item, while local taxes generated Rp870.03 billion, or 60.27% of locally generated revenue.

The treasury office said it was continuing to monitor budget execution, assist spending units and coordinate with regional governments to accelerate transfers such as revenue sharing and physical Special Allocation Funds. It also noted that Finance Ministry service units in the province had maintained operations under adverse conditions, including at the Ruteng State Treasury Service Office during disaster-related disruptions in late August 2026.
