On February 13, a leader of the Tax Department of Region II, Ca Mau Province Tax Department confirmed that this unit had just received an invitation from the People's Court of Ca Mau Province to work on the administrative lawsuit on land with Mr. Ho An Tap as the plaintiff. According to the court's announcement, the unit was invited on February 25.
Mr. Ho An Tap has not yet paid the land use fee according to the notice of the Tax Department of Region II. According to regulations, taxpayers must pay 50% of the amount within 30 days after the notice, the remaining 50% within the next 60 days.
The leader of the Tax Department of Region II explained: The unit invited Mr. Ho An Tap to work on the payment of land use right transfer tax. When invited to work, Mr. Tap said he was unable to pay and said he would file a lawsuit to request a change in the purpose of use of 580 m² of land. The unit has a record of this meeting, if Mr. Tap is late in paying, the system application will automatically calculate the late payment fee, based on which the tax department will implement.
As Lao Dong reported, the owner of the villa considered “the most beautiful in Ca Mau” has filed a lawsuit against the People’s Committee of Ca Mau City. Speaking to the press, Mr. Tap said that he did not have enough money to pay the land use transfer tax, so he sued the court so that the agency could consider allowing him to pay it gradually.
Previously, as Lao Dong reported, in December 2022, Ca Mau City authorities discovered that Mr. Ho An Tap illegally built a villa on an aquaculture land area of more than 3,000 square meters, adjacent to Quan Lo - Phung Hiep route.
Through review, the entire construction area is planned as aquaculture land, not eligible to change the purpose of use from aquaculture land to rural residential land because it is not consistent with the construction planning.
In January 2023, the People's Committee of Ca Mau City decided to fine Mr. Tap 22.5 million VND and force him to restore the land to its original state before the violation.
In November 2023, the People's Committee of Ca Mau City decided to amend and supplement the administrative penalty for Mr. Tap. It required maintaining the current land use status as at the time of detecting the violation and at the same time allowing the conversion of the land use purpose of more than 2,200 m2 from aquaculture land to rural residential land.
