Mr. Mai Son - Deputy Director of the Tax Department, Ministry of Finance .
Opening the program, Mr. Mai Son, Deputy Director of the Tax Department, Ministry of Finance, shared the policy guidelines and roadmap for supporting business households in the process of eliminating lump-sum tax. Mr. Mai Son stated that the transition from lump-sum tax to declaration-based tax is a crucial step in implementing the Party and State's policy on fair and transparent tax management and creating favorable conditions for the development of the private economy. To date, 98% of businesses that declare taxes have paid electronically, over 18,500 lump-sum tax households have switched to declaration-based tax, and 133,000 households have registered to use electronic invoices from cash registers. These figures demonstrate the positive shift in policy and the quick and proactive adaptation of business households in the face of this major change.
According to representatives from the Tax Department, the primary goal is to help business households fulfill their tax obligations conveniently, safely, transparently, and in a modern way. The tax sector has implemented a comprehensive set of solutions, including researching and amending policies; promoting communication, dialogue, and practical guidance; simplifying accounting procedures; and applying user-friendly technology. Currently, the tax authorities are finalizing the legal framework focusing on three key areas: amending the Law on Tax Administration and related documents, developing a separate management policy for business households, and developing a simplified accounting system linked to digital technology applications – aiming for a modern, transparent, and taxpayer-centered tax system. Based on this policy, technology companies play a crucial role in realizing this initiative in practice.
