Mau nanya ya pak.
Misalnya kasus saya adalah saya karyawan yang dikontrak oleh perusahaan asing, namun karena perusahaan tersebut memiliki anak perusahaan di Indoensia, maka saya ditugaskan untuk bekerja di Indonesia, dengan frekuensi sebulan seminggu di kantor pusat (luar negeri) dan tiga minggu di Indonesia. Gaji saya dibayarkan di negara asing tersebut (karena saya dikontrak di negara tersebut) dan sudah dipotong pajak di negara tersebut sesuai dengan peraturan yang berlaku di negara itu.

Karena keluarga saya berada di Indonesia, setiap bulan gaji saya tersebut saya bawa ke Indonesia.

Pertanyaan saya adalah, apakah di Indonesia saya juga terkena pajak penghasilan?

Thanks before
