However, delinquent taxpayers still exist and cost quite a lot of money of their own countries.

Thus, this paper discusses about the implementation of tax amnesty in selected countries and which factors that have role in a successful tax amnesty program. Further, impact of tax amnesty in tax revenue as well as pros and cons of this program from literatures are discussed to improve our tax amnesty knowledge.
