Hanoi Tax has just issued a warning about acts of deliberately concealing revenue through non-transparent payment methods. At the same time, it affirmed that it will resolutely and strictly handle cases of tax evasion, even prosecute criminal liability depending on the level of violation.

Common violations include: Refusing to pay by bank transfer and only accepting cash, to avoid leaving traces of the transaction, making it difficult for authorities to verify actual revenue. Instructing buyers to write false transfer details such as "borrowed money", "repay debt", "coffee money", or "shipping money"; Using relatives' accounts; not issuing invoices, making dishonest or incomplete declarations to conceal actual revenue.

Some cases use two accounting systems. Establish a business together with a business household to hide sales revenue (in case the customer takes the invoice, it will be issued through the company, if not taking the invoice, it will be sold through the business household form).

To build a fair - transparent - sustainable business environment, the tax authority recommends that taxpayers declare taxes accurately and honestly, not use intermediary accounts to conceal revenue and use legal invoices and documents in all transactions.
