(Chinhphu.vn) - According to the Tax Department (Ministry of Finance): after 7 days of implementing automatic tax refund, the number of personal income tax (PIT) refund requests that have been identified by the tax agency for automatic tax refund is 42,881 files with the amount of 229.3 billion VND, the tax agency has created a tax refund order and sent it electronically to the Treasury to pay tax refunds to taxpayers.

Taxpayers can log in to the eTaxMobile application with a VNeID level II account to access functions such as "Look up settlement information", "Suggested personal income tax settlement declaration"

In order to refund taxes to taxpayers quickly and promptly, from April 3, 2025, the Tax Department has implemented automatic personal income tax refunds from the 2024 personal income tax settlement period.

After 7 days of implementing automatic tax refund, the number of personal income tax (PIT) refund requests that have been identified by the tax authority for automatic tax refund is 42,881 files with an amount of 229.3 billion VND. The tax authority has created a tax refund order and sent it electronically to the Treasury to pay tax refunds to taxpayers.

The automatic tax refund system synthesizes taxpayer information from the database of the income paying agency, tax declaration data of individuals and data from the national database on population. The application will automatically create a suggested personal income tax settlement declaration form, pre-filling tax refund information for taxpayers.

Taxpayers only need to access the eTaxMobile application to confirm the information. When the taxpayer confirms, the system automatically creates a tax refund decision and creates a refund order to transmit information to the State Treasury to pay the tax refund to the taxpayer.

According to the Tax Department ( Ministry of Finance ): To get an automatic personal income tax refund, individuals and taxpayers need to quickly download and install the Etax Mobile application on their mobile phones, thereby helping individuals to get a quick tax refund, save time and not have to go to the tax office.

Through reviewing data at tax authorities, up to now, there are 94,165 units that have deducted personal income tax but have not yet paid the deducted personal income tax to the state budget.

Hereby, the tax authority recommends that income-paying units promptly pay the deducted personal income tax of individuals to the State budget to avoid being fined and charged late payment fees according to the provisions of law and not to affect the right to automatic tax refund of individuals making tax refund settlements.

Previously, in early 2025, the Tax Department issued Decision No. 108/QD-TCT to implement the Automatic Personal Income Tax Refund Process. Accordingly, the settlement of personal income tax refunds according to the process will be implemented from the 2024 personal income tax settlement period.

Deputy Director Mai Son said: This is a group of tasks on digital transformation deployed by the Tax sector under the direction of the Government, the Prime Minister , and the Ministry of Finance on accelerating the process of administrative procedure reform, developing e-Government and implementing digital transformation, in order to promote the application of information technology in tax management, simplify procedures for taxpayers and reduce processing time and workload of tax authorities.

With the implementation of the automatic personal income tax refund application, the Tax sector has taken a big step forward in applying IT and can affirm that this is one of the important automatic applications deployed to accelerate the process of comprehensive and synchronous digital transformation in tax management with the goal of "Taxpayers as the center of service", while continuing to accelerate the process of simplifying tax administrative procedures, thereby saving maximum time and effort in performing procedures on taxpayers' tax obligations.

In order to simplify personal income tax (PIT) settlement procedures, the Tax sector has upgraded electronic tax applications, including eTaxMobile and Electronic Tax for individuals.

Taxpayers can log in to the eTaxMobile application with a VNeID level II account to access functions such as "Look up settlement information" and "Suggested personal income tax settlement declaration". This feature helps automatically fill in some indicators based on data of the income-paying organization, tax information, and related financial obligations.
