The name Samsat (abbreviation for Sistem Administrasi Manunggal Satu Atap or One-stop Administrative System) must be familiar to car owners as it regulates vehicle taxes that are charged every year. However, there are still many who don’t understand the administration system of Samsat, and perhaps there are still some who perceive that Samsat is a regional apparatus organization or an independent agency.
There are still several organizational elements within Samsat itself. To avoid confusion here are 101 guidelines of everything you need to know about Samsat.

History of Samsat
In 1970, the process of renewing the STNK tax (Vehicle Registration Certificate) was quite time consuming, because car owners had to come to the Tax Office to pay tax payments, then to the Jasa Raharja Office for SWDKLLJ and finally had to come to the Police Station to get an STNK.
This long and quite troublesome process gave birth to Samsat in the trials carried out in 1974 - 1976. Seeing the success of the trials that cut through this long process finally put forth INBERS 3 Ministers, Menhankam, Menkeu, and Mendagri No. Pol. KEP / 13 / XII / 1976, No. KEP-1693 / MK / IV / 12/1976, 311 YEAR 1976.
Through the issuance of this decree, SAMSAT which involves the Tax Office, the Raharja Service Office, and the Police Office is officially enforced throughout Indonesia to this day. Even so, each agency is still required to issue its own proof of payment.
Samsat Function
With the development of technology and information, Samsat services have started to develop and are even easier to serve citizens to create, validate, or extend the completeness of motorized vehicle certificates.
Until now, 7 Samsat services can be used with their respective functions. The following is a complete explanation of what Samsat functions are.
- Main Samsat: This service was the first to be launched and it is still around today. The service system is still conventional, where people have to come to Samsat by themselves and enter the counters that have been arranged to complete different steps, such as registration, verification, payment, and submission.
- Samsat Drive THRU: This service is quite easy for the community because the service here is quite fast. You only need to prepare the original BPKB (“Buku Pemilik Kendaraan Bermotor” or Proof of Motor Vehicle Owner), STNK (“Surat Tanda Nomor Kendaraan” or Vehicle Registration Certificate), and original KTP (“Kartu Tanda Pengenal” or ID cards) documents without having to bother making photocopies. However, this service is only available for vehicle registration extensions only.
- Mobile Samsat: As the name implies, this service uses a car to get around from one place to another to pick up the ball or visit people who are located quite far from Samsat. Just like Samsat Drive THRU, people who come only need to bring the original BPKB, STNK, and KTP. However, this service is only available for vehicle registration extensions only.
- Samsat outlets: This Samsat service is located in public places such as malls or shopping centers. However, this service is only available for vehicle registration extensions only.
- Sub-district Samsat: This Samsat is located in a sub-district so that it is easier to reach. However, this service is only limited to the DKI Jakarta area and only available for vehicle registration extensions.
- E-Samsat and Samsat Online: This service is the latest innovation where people don't need to come to the Samsat office and instead, use a smartphone application that can be downloaded. The payment system is using an ATM or E-Banking.
- Samsat Digital: This service is the latest breakthrough from Ditlantas Metro Jaya, where the system is almost the same as the main Samsat but everything is replaced digitally from filling out digital forms to uploading documents.
This method has proven to be very easy for the community in processing their vehicle documents while at Samsat. This takes a very short time and you can choose which one is the most suitable to use.
