The need for optimal management of potential regional taxes and levies is an important problem in increasing local original revenue (PAD) in Ternate City. The real effect of this problem is the low achievement of Ternate City PAD which is only 68.89% per year in 2021. Specs in this matter focus on the need for more human resources for PAD managers, who have yet to utilize information technology to realize PAD, target setting, unprofessional PAD managers, and weak supervision of Ternate City PAD revenues. This study aims to map the Potential Taxes and Levies of the Ternate City Area from these factual conditions. The approach used in this study is Qualitative with an Integrative paradigm, Descriptive method, and SWOT Analysis. The key informant of this study is an individual who became and has been the manager of regional levies and BUMD in Ternate City. The results showed that the low achievement of the Ternate City PAD target was due to the Ternate City government needing an accountable database of Ternate City PAD potential. This is confirmed by the realization target of Ternate City PAD always experiencing declining changes in the main APBD with the shift in APBD. In addition to the organizational governance responsible for collecting PAD being less professional, the government of BUMD, which is the spearhead in improving PAD, is also unprofessional. This can be seen from the continued deterioration of BUMD’s performance in Ternate City.
