Total sample used was 179 companies with total of 498 observations. The sampling method used was purposive sampling and data was analysed with multiple linear regression. Tax avoidance as dependent variable is measured by Effectice Tax Rate. Independent variables used in this research are corporate governance and audit quality. Corporate Governance as independent variable is measured by the proportion of independent commissioners, institutional ownership, and audit committee. The result shows that the variable proportion of independent commissioners has a significant positive effect, institutional ownership has a significant negative effect, and the audit quality and audit committee variables have no significant effect on tax avoidance.
