There are 256,797 automatic personal income tax refund records.

According to the Tax Department, as of May 5, the number of applications for automatic personal income tax refunds that have been confirmed by the tax authority to be refunded is 256,797 applications with an amount of VND 1,169.66 billion.

The tax industry's automatic database system has created a tax refund order and sent it electronically to the State Treasury to pay tax refunds to taxpayers.

To make automatic personal income tax refunds, tax authorities instruct taxpayers to download and install the eTax Mobile application on their phones and smart mobile devices.

Thereby, individuals can operate on the application and get a quick tax refund without having to go to the tax office.

To automatically refund personal income tax, the Tax Department guides taxpayers to access the eTax Mobile application to confirm information on the suggested personal income tax finalization declaration and pre-fill tax refund information.

After the taxpayer confirms the information, the application will automatically review the tax refund information. If the information is completely valid and in accordance with regulations, the system will automatically create a tax refund decision and create a refund order to transmit the information to the State Treasury to pay the tax refund to the taxpayer.

There are 39,814 units that have collected personal income tax but have not fully paid it to the budget.

In order not to affect the right to automatic tax refund of individuals, the Tax Department recommends that income-paying units promptly pay the deducted personal income tax of taxpayers to the state budget.

In fact, through reviewing data at tax authorities, up to now, there are 39,814 units that have deducted personal income tax but have not paid tax to the budget.

Therefore, the tax authority will continue to urge, apply debt enforcement measures and publicize information about income-paying organizations that have committed this violation.

To effectively implement the automatic personal income tax refund, the Tax Department also said that it has assigned direct responsibility for directing the processing of personal income tax refund dossiers to each tax branch and tax team leader.

On the other hand, tax authorities coordinate with the State Treasury in the area to arrange resources to promptly process refunds for taxpayers and receive feedback from the State Treasury to promptly handle arising problems (if any).

Since April 3, the tax authority has implemented automatic personal income tax refunds from the 2024 tax settlement period.

The implementation of automatic personal income tax refund aims to create the most favorable conditions and the most convenient utilities for taxpayers in the tax refund process and contributes significantly to freeing up resources for tax authorities in reviewing taxpayers' tax refund dossiers.
