Introduction

Development in Indonesia requires large funds, and Medan City, as one of the big cities in Indonesia, plays a significant role in this development. The government is looking for sources of funds from various potentials, including taxes. At present, tax is the main source of state revenue, replacing the role of oil and gas (oil and gas) which was once a mainstay. However, other potentials that have not been explored to the maximum are marine products. Indonesia, with its large sea area, has great potential that has not been fully exploited. Funds obtained from taxes can be distributed for the development, payment, and distribution of income.

In the taxation system, there is a mechanism of objection for taxpayers who objected to tax determination issued by the Directorate General of Taxes. The West Medan Pratama Tax Service Office has an important role in handling this objection application.
