In Quang Ninh, the Tax Department is implementing many solutions to support business households in converting. Currently, the majority of business households in the area still pay taxes by the lump-sum method. This shows that there is a lot of room for conversion, but it also means that there are many concerns and worries from taxpayers such as fear of complicated procedures, fear of having to pay more taxes, fear of digital technology , etc.
In fact, when switching from lump-sum tax payment to declaration, the first and most obvious benefit is that business households only have to pay tax when they generate revenue. If previously the tax payable was set once for the whole year, which often did not reflect market fluctuations, seasons or periods of slow business, then with the declaration method, the tax is calculated based on actual revenue during the period. This helps business households reduce pressure during difficult times, be more proactive in financial planning, and build business plans that closely follow the actual situation.
Along with that, the declaration method associated with electronic invoices and accounting books managed on software helps business activities to be "digitalized" completely. Instead of having to store many types of documents, invoices, manual notebooks, now business households can track revenue, expenses, debts... on the same platform. Technology solution providers such as Viettel, VNPT, Mobifone, Misa , Sapo, KiotViet are coordinating with the Tax authorities to design easy-to-use applications, reasonable costs, with a team of direct support at the store. These solutions not only help with tax declaration and invoice issuance but are also "digital assistants" to help business households gradually approach a modern management model, convenient when expanding their scale or converting to an enterprise later.
Another important benefit is to increase transparency and protect taxpayers' rights. When all revenue and tax obligations are declared and paid electronically, business households have full basis for comparison, lookup, and limit mistakes and complaints. The eTax Mobile application allows taxpayers to monitor their obligations to the State anytime, anywhere, declare and pay taxes right on their phones, and make quick payments via banks. Mr. Ninh Minh Tuan, Manager of Dr. Lan's Eye Clinic (Hong Gai Ward) said: "The eTax Mobile app is very convenient, ensures safety, and is easy to look up and pay taxes because there are no procedures to do, just enter and transfer money and that's it."
In the long term, switching to declaration also creates a foundation to improve the competitiveness of business households, especially in the context of e-commerce and online business boom. When revenue and expenses are fully recorded, business households have a basis to work with banks, access credit, expand production and business scale; at the same time, forming the habit of recording and reporting transparent finances. This is also a "passport" that helps business households more easily when changing types, establishing enterprises, and participating more deeply in the official supply chain.
For management agencies, eliminating lump-sum tax and applying declaration not only helps increase management efficiency, but more importantly, ensures fairness among business households. For the same industry, scale, and equivalent revenue, tax obligations will be calculated on the same principle, limiting the situation of low-tax-paying households and high-tax-paying households causing frustration and comparison. Fairness and transparency are important factors to build trust and strengthen awareness of tax law compliance in the business community.
To facilitate the transition, Quang Ninh Provincial Tax has established peak periods to support business households in converting from lump-sum tax to declaration, signed coordination regulations with localities and technology solution providers, organized training, provided direct guidance, and arranged forces to "go to every alley, knock on every store" to accompany taxpayers. The goal is to complete the conversion for all business households and individuals in the area by the end of 2025, creating a fundamental shift from manual tax collection to modern, electronic management.
Switching from lump-sum tax to declaration tax is an inevitable step, bringing many practical benefits to business households. With the active support from the Tax Department and accompanying units, this will be a "push" to help household economies in the province keep up with modern business trends, ready to enter the electronic tax declaration stage.
