This research uses quantitative methods with multiple linear regression approaches. Data is obtained from the annual financial statements of hotel, restaurant and tourism sub-sector companies published on the IDX during a certain period. Samples were selected using purposive sampling method with certain criteria. The results showed that Company Size has no significant effect on Audit Delay, while KAP Quality and Profitability. Simultaneously, the three independent variables have a significant influence on Audit Delay.
