In the first 6 months of 2025, the total state budget revenue in the province reached 28,421 billion VND, completing 102% of the 6-month revenue plan and equal to 50% of the annual estimate, ranking 7th in the country and 3rd in the Red River Delta provinces. Of which, domestic revenue reached 20,214 billion VND, up 3% over the same period in 2024, reaching 54% of the central budget estimate, reaching 51% of the provincial budget estimate; revenue from import-export activities reached 8,200 billion VND, reaching 46% of the central and provincial budget estimates. Many important revenues such as taxes and fees from centrally managed state-owned enterprises, foreign-invested enterprises, and mineral exploitation rights... all met or exceeded the average progress of 6 months.

This is the result of proactive management, especially in the context of many fluctuations in the world economy , difficult export markets, high input material prices, affecting production and business. Right from the beginning of the year, the Provincial People's Committee has strongly directed sectors and localities to grasp the situation of production and business activities, especially in key areas such as coal, electricity, processing industry, manufacturing, tourism, and trade.

Many direct meetings with the Vietnam National Coal - Mineral Industries Group , enterprises in the electricity, processing, manufacturing, export, logistics enterprises, urban infrastructure investors, tourism... were organized, focusing on removing obstacles in site clearance, administrative procedures, land prices, and sources of filling materials.

Mr. Pham Van The, Chairman of the Provincial Business Association, said: In the face of difficulties of the business community, especially the damage caused by storm No. 3 (Yagi) and the US tariff policy, Quang Ninh always accompanies businesses, creating the best conditions for industries and businesses to develop stably and contribute to the provincial budget.

With the province's close and drastic supervision, many large projects continue to be promoted, such as: Thanh Cong Viet Hung Automobile Factory; industrial processing and manufacturing projects; industrial parks, creating a sustainable source of budget revenue for the province. The finance, tax and customs sectors have tightened management and prevented revenue loss. Potential revenues have been carefully reviewed, especially revenues from land, land use rights fees, and taxes and fees in the field of resource exploitation. The review and reconciliation of debts, urging the collection of tax arrears, and preventing revenue loss from electronic invoices and e-commerce have also been strengthened, contributing to improving financial discipline, ensuring correct, sufficient and timely collection into the budget.

It is forecasted that in the last months of 2025, the state budget collection will continue to face many challenges, such as: Import-export revenue is affected by import tax policy, land revenue is delayed due to problems with project procedures, site clearance; tax deferral and extension policies of the Government. Recognizing this, the Provincial People's Committee has identified 8 groups of key tasks and solutions, in which the localities after the merger and the budget collection agencies are required to continue to remove bottlenecks in land, public investment, and generate revenue from key projects; review and evaluate each revenue item in practice; focus on recovering outstanding debts, strictly handling tax violations; and support businesses to maintain production and export.

Mr. Pham Hong Bien, Director of the Department of Finance, said: The unit has promptly advised the Provincial People's Committee, directed the entire government system from the province to the grassroots level to take action, especially in communes, wards, and special zones after the merger to implement the 2-level local government model, ensuring the completion and exceeding of the 2025 state budget revenue estimate; at the same time, not to lose revenue, not to let revenue sources be affected by subjectivity or weaknesses in management.

The budget collection results in the first 6 months of 2025 of Quang Ninh province continue to affirm the effectiveness and efficiency in directing and managing the province's economic development and public finance. This is not only a resource for development investment and ensuring social security, but also the most authentic measure of the health of the economy and the quality of state governance.
