Government to Disburse Civil Servant THR 2026: Details and Calculations

THR Payment Schedule and Components

The Indonesian government is preparing to disburse the Tunjangan Hari Raya (THR) for civil servants (PNS) in 2026. According to recent announcements, the THR payments are expected to be made approximately 10 to 15 days before the Idul Fitri celebration. This financial support is crucial for maintaining the purchasing power of civil servants during the festive period.

The calculation of THR for civil servants will be based on Government Regulation (PP) No. 11/2025. The regulation stipulates that THR will be paid at 100% of the basic salary without any deductions, including no deductions for contribution payments. However, the payment of performance allowances (tunjangan kinerja or tukin) will be determined separately based on the country's fiscal condition, potentially being given fully or partially.

Different Schemes for Various ASN Categories

Different categories of civil servants will receive THR according to their specific circumstances:

1. Civil Servants (PNS): Receive 100% of basic salary plus certain allowances
2. ASN Teachers/Lecturers without performance allowances: Can receive professional allowances equivalent to one month's salary
3. ASN Lecturers/Professors: May receive professional honorarium according to prevailing regulations
4. CPNS (Probationary Civil Servants): Receive 80% of basic salary plus family, food, and positional allowances

Exclusions and Special Considerations

Not all types of allowances are included in the THR calculation. Certain allowances are excluded from the payment. The government emphasizes that the new regulation aims to provide legal certainty and improve the welfare of civil servants while boosting national economic activity before religious holidays.

Economic and Social Impact

The disbursement of THR is expected to have a positive impact on national economic activity, particularly in the retail and consumer goods sectors, as civil servants receive additional funds to spend during the festive period. The government's careful consideration of various ASN categories demonstrates an effort to maintain equity and support the welfare of its employees.
