Thu Duc City residents complain about procedures for declaring tax on non-agricultural land use

Change the process

Accordingly, from May 20, 2023, the People's Committees of 34 wards of Thu Duc City, the Ho Chi Minh City Notary Information and Consulting Center will support and guide taxpayers when carrying out procedures for registering changes in houses and land (buying and selling, giving away, inheriting), contact the Thu Duc City Tax Department to fully pay non- agricultural land use taxes and declare non- agricultural land use tax declarations up to the present time.

When receiving applications for registration of changes in housing and land, the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office must have a confirmation of non-agricultural land use tax obligations according to the current form for real estate, instead of the previous non-agricultural land use tax collection documents.

Thu Duc City Tax Department also requests that the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office Branch, when receiving the application for registration of changes in housing and land and receiving the confirmation of non-agricultural land use tax obligations of taxpayers according to the form, send the scanned file to Thu Duc City Tax Department.

The reason for this request, according to a leader of the Thu Duc City Tax Department, in the past, the circulation of cadastral information release files to determine the financial obligations of land users was carried out according to the coordination regulation No. 1955 between the General Department of Taxation and the General Department of Land Management and Joint Circular No. 88 of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.

From January 1, 2022 to present, due to the recent merger, the implementation of the interconnection process between the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office Branch and the Thu Duc City Tax Department has not been synchronized and still faces many difficulties.

Through the first 4 months of 2023, Thu Duc City Tax Department still encountered some difficulties in fulfilling non-agricultural land use tax obligations for taxpayers registering changes in houses and land.

Before a door, now running around

On the morning of May 23, Thanh Nien reporters were present at the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office Branch and recorded many people complaining about this new process. Mr. Minh, in Binh Trung Dong Ward, said that currently when making a dossier, people have to go to the ward to confirm the land area, land plot, land location, then go to the Thu Duc City Tax Department to open a tax declaration. When there is a tax notice, they will go to the bank or the State Treasury to pay the tax. Next, take the tax receipt to the Tax Department to confirm the completion of the tax payment, then take that confirmation paper and attach the dossier to the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office Branch to issue the pink book.

Previously, people only submitted their documents at one door, the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office Branch. This place will confirm the area, location of the land, the tax limit and transfer the documents to the Thu Duc City Tax Department. When there is a tax notice, people go to pay the tax and then bring the receipt to the Thu Duc City Land Registration Office Branch and it's done, without having to run around and waste too much time like now.

"Previously, completion of construction did not require the above steps, but now completion of construction also requires them. While the People's Committee of Thu Duc City and the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City are trying to reform and cut down on administrative procedures so that people can travel less and spend less, the Tax Department of Thu Duc City is creating more sub-licenses to harass people," Mr. Minh said indignantly.

Speaking to Thanh Nien Newspaper, a leader of the District 7 Land Registration Office Branch said that in the locality, people only need to submit a declaration of non-agricultural land use tax, personal income tax along with the land use right transfer dossier to the one-stop department of the District 7 Land Registration Office Branch. Then, the branch confirms the area, location of the land, and the limit for tax calculation. The tax dossier will be connected to the District 7 Tax Department electronically. Then the Tax Department issues a notice of registration tax and personal income tax. People take the tax notice to pay at the bank or the State Treasury.

After paying the tax, people bring the tax receipt to the District 7 Land Registration Office Branch to submit. After 1-2 days, they will receive the pink book at home by post or pick it up in person. "The way the Thu Duc City Tax Department does is not in accordance with the direction of the Ho Chi Minh City Tax Department when it only requires the Land Registration Office Branch to confirm the area, location of the land and house, and the limit to calculate the tax, without having to go around to the ward," he said.

Nha Be District also has the same method as District 7. This helps people not to spend too much time and effort "running around" to places like in Thu Duc City.
