Many revenues achieved and exceeded

In the first 10 months of the year, the total state budget revenue in the area is estimated at 11,800 billion VND, equivalent to 92.5% of the estimate assigned by the City People's Council resolution. Of which, domestic revenue reached about 10,400 billion VND, equal to 88.9% of the assigned estimate and increased by 18.5% over the same period. Revenue from import-export activities reached 1,271 billion VND, equivalent to 121.1% of the assigned estimate and recorded an increase of 28.4% over the same period. Revenue from aid and mobilized contributions reached 133.6 billion VND, 19.5 times higher than the estimate, increased by 8.7 times over the same period.

Hue City Tax alone collected 10,589 billion VND, reaching 93.8% of the estimate assigned by the Ministry of Finance , reaching 90.5% of the resolution assigned by the City People's Council, equal to 119% of the same period in 2024. If land use fees are deducted, this revenue is 8,050 billion VND, equal to 90.6% of the estimate of the Ministry of Finance, reaching 90.4% of the resolution assigned by the City People's Council. It is estimated that by the end of the year, the City Tax will collect 13,317 billion VND, reaching 118% of the estimate assigned by the Ministry of Finance and equal to 116.6% over the same period.

The budget revenue achieved is quite high compared to the same period, but compared to the target set by the City People's Committee of 15,765 billion VND, an increase of 27.5% compared to the assigned estimate, it is still quite difficult to achieve. This causes considerable pressure on the task of increasing budget revenue in the remaining months of 2025, especially in the context that the world economic and political situation is still complicated and unpredictable; the domestic economy is also facing many difficulties and challenges.

In addition, in October and November, heavy rains and floods continuously occurred, causing considerable damage to people and businesses. The city's tax department has directed local tax offices and functional departments to grasp the damage situation and focus on guiding taxpayers on tax and fee exemption and reduction policies due to natural disasters. These practical solutions have contributed to helping people and businesses quickly overcome difficulties caused by natural disasters, but have also more or less affected budget revenue.

Synchronize solutions

In the plan to implement tasks for the last month of 2025, the city also determined to continue monitoring and grasping the production and business situation of key and traditional industrial production enterprises that have made great contributions to growth in order to have support policies, remove difficulties and obstacles in terms of orders and consumption markets, expand production scale to contribute to increasing the production capacity of enterprises, contributing more to the growth target; monitor, urge, promptly remove difficulties and obstacles to speed up the progress of projects that have started construction. The city also focuses on effectively implementing mechanisms and policies to promote industrial development, strengthen promotion, call for investment in production and business projects in industrial parks and clusters; effectively implement trade promotion policies, maintain and expand export markets.

The effective implementation of Resolution 68 of the Politburo on private economic development, striving to reach about 1,000 newly established enterprises by 2025, is also set. By the end of October, the whole city had 887 newly established enterprises with a total registered capital of 11,148 billion VND, an increase of 37.3% in quantity and 4.2 times in capital compared to the same period.

For the tax sector, to complete the collection task in 2025, the City Tax has launched a competitive movement to successfully carry out the tax task in 2025. The proposed solutions are quite comprehensive in all aspects, from professional work to accompanying support and propaganda activities.

Mr. Doan Vi Tuyen, Head of Hue City Tax, emphasized that the City Tax focuses all resources to resolutely and synchronously implement all solutions for tax collection management, tax debt recovery, and budget loss prevention, striving to exceed the minimum 20% of the State budget collection task in 2025 assigned by the Ministry of Finance. Synchronously and effectively implement tax management functions such as propaganda and support for taxpayers; management of declarations and value-added tax refunds; inspection against tax loss, tax debt management, tax debt recovery; e-commerce tax management. At the same time, review and strictly manage revenue sources and taxes to organize correct and sufficient collection; resolutely fight against acts of fraud, tax evasion, and tax appropriation...

However, focusing on solutions to achieve budget revenue in the last month of the year will put pressure on taxpayers, especially in the current period. Because most businesses in the area are small and medium-sized, their endurance and ability to respond to natural disaster risks and economic fluctuations are not large. Not to mention, in the last month of this year, the resources of the City Tax and local taxes are focused on the 45-day peak campaign to convert the tax management model from lump-sum tax to declaration for business households in the city, which will also have a significant impact on budget collection activities. This is a difficult problem while having to accelerate to achieve revenue but still maintain the principles of fairness, transparency and support, accompany taxpayers in production and business activities.
