Officials calculating property taxes online are left speechless.

(NLĐO) - After the electronic system is back online, the tax authorities will quickly process the land management offices to complete and return the results of land and housing records.

On March 14th, in an interview with a reporter from Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper, leaders of several Tax Teams (formerly Tax Sub-departments) in Ho Chi Minh City stated that after the tax sector temporarily suspended some electronic transaction functions to hand over operational data according to the new organizational structure, the online land and property tax calculation staff were "frozen".

At the Go Vap District Land Registration Office branch (Ho Chi Minh City), although the land registration system with the agency has temporarily suspended data transfer to allow the tax authority to operate under the new model, the unit is still accepting applications for buying and selling houses. The atmosphere is quite lively, with about 50 people waiting their turn to submit and receive the results of transferring land ownership .

Many people either had the forms ready in their hands or were filling them out quickly to ensure they had enough time to submit their applications before their turn.

Speaking with a reporter from Nguoi Lao Dong newspaper, Mr. Nguyen Van Tien proudly showed off his newly received land ownership certificate. According to Mr. Tien, for land transfer transactions that also require a new land ownership certificate, it can take about 3 months to get results. In cases where the buyer only needs to update the name of the current land owner, they have to wait at least 45 days for the application to be completed.

"People have to wait quite a long time for their applications to be processed, probably because many wards, communes, departments, and agencies in Ho Chi Minh City have been dissolved and merged, so state management agencies are spending a lot of time reviewing information related to real estate transactions," Mr. Tien said.
