Efforts to ensure domestic tax revenue targets are met.

(GLO) - Domestic tax collection in the first four months of the year has shown very positive signs, creating resources for Gia Lai province to invest in socio-economic development. Currently, departments and agencies are focusing on implementing many measures synchronously and decisively to ensure the revenue targets assigned by the Provincial People's Committee are met.

Positive results, but the pressure remains high.

In 2026, the province aims for double-digit GRDP growth, thus requiring significant resources for development investment. Therefore, the Provincial People's Committee has requested an increase in domestic tax revenue of over 4,395 billion VND compared to the budget allocated by the Provincial People's Council (27,082 billion VND).

Encouragingly, the budget collection work has yielded positive results. As of May 5th, the entire province collected 12,769 billion VND in taxes, including over 9,411 billion VND in domestic taxes (excluding land use fees, lottery revenue, dividends, and distributed profits), reaching 61.7% of the annual target (15,260 billion VND), an increase of 83.4% compared to the same period last year.

As many as 67 out of 135 wards and communes have ensured that their revenue collection exceeds 60% of the 2026 budget revenue target assigned by the province.

However, compared to the budget allocated by the Provincial People's Committee, the remaining revenue that needs to be secured is very large. Notably, revenue from land use fees - one of the major sources of domestic revenue - has decreased sharply.

As of May 5th, the entire province had only collected 2,840 billion VND, reaching 24.9% of the annual budget target. Revenue collection was also uneven across localities, with significant disparities between units; in particular, 27 out of 135 communes and wards had significantly lower revenue than the provincial average.

The pressure intensified when tax support policies such as tax exemptions for individuals, households, and businesses; in particular, the environmental protection tax rate on gasoline (excluding ethanol), diesel, and aviation fuel was set at 0 VND/liter, and the special consumption tax rate on all types of gasoline was set at 0%... came into effect, reducing revenue by trillions of VND.

Efforts to ensure domestic tax revenue targets are met.

To ensure the domestic tax revenue target is met, the provincial tax department has leveraged its information technology ecosystem to review all revenue sources and tax categories, and calculate potential revenue growth in various sectors.

The tax collection and management plan for the remaining months of 2026 has been assigned by the Provincial Tax Department to specialized departments and 11 local tax teams responsible for 135 communes and wards, following the motto: "Putting taxpayers at the center of service."

Currently, the entire sector is focusing on implementing support policies, ensuring maximum benefits for taxpayers, helping people and businesses invest in production and business development, and voluntarily fulfilling their tax obligations.

At the same time, strengthen the monitoring of tax declaration records, and provide guidance to taxpayers on declaring and paying taxes correctly and fully in the electronic environment. Maximize the exploitation of remaining and potential revenue sources, accompanied by the handling and collection of tax debts and the prevention of tax fraud and evasion.

The provincial tax authorities will also continue to monitor, evaluate, and analyze the revenue collection situation in each locality, each revenue area, and each tax category in order to develop timely management and direction for revenue collection.

In addition, monthly and quarterly revenue forecasts closely reflect actual developments and identify risks, thereby determining potential revenue sources, areas and types of taxes where revenue is being lost, and promptly advising the Provincial People's Committee on scenarios and solutions for management and direction.

Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Son, Deputy Head of the Provincial Tax Department, affirmed: The tax revenue collected by the tax sector has achieved good results, but this does not mean complacency. All officials and employees of the department will continue to work with the highest sense of responsibility, striving to complete the 2026 budget assigned by the Provincial People's Committee.

Meanwhile, the Department of Finance is working closely with the tax authorities to review and accurately assess revenue sources in order to collect taxes correctly and fully, and to urge investors to fulfill their financial obligations.

According to Tran Cang, Director of the Department of Finance, the unit is also actively guiding agencies and localities to resolve obstacles to accelerate project implementation, thereby creating revenue for the budget and nurturing revenue sources.

At the same time, finalize the dossiers and procedures for investment projects using land so that bidding and auctioning can be carried out soon, and land use fees can be collected according to regulations, thereby supplementing budget revenue.

The Provincial Land Development Center and the Provincial Economic Zone Management Board are stepping up the collection of land use fees by urging businesses to fulfill their financial obligations and organizing land auctions.

Currently, the Provincial Land Development Center is auctioning approximately 23 project land plots, expecting to collect over 2,983 billion VND; at the same time, it is auctioning more than 22 residential land plots in various localities, with an expected revenue of approximately 1,373 billion VND to supplement the budget. Mr. Ngo Tung Son stated that the Center will continue to resolve obstacles and expedite the auction and collection of land use fees as directed by the Provincial People's Committee.
