Taxpayer support work has been modernized, including electronic invoices, automatic tax refunds and publicization of the list of support staff contributing to creating public and transparent administration.

The total amount of debt collected in the first 6 months of the year reached VND43,109 billion, of which nearly VND2,000 billion was implemented by enforcement measures.

Recently, the tax sector has been accompanying business households in converting from contract to declaration, in accordance with the principle of "self-declaration, self-payment, self-responsibility". This is an important step in the process of tax management reform, ensuring fairness and transparency in policy implementation.

Conditions from institutions, data, technology and support solutions are being prepared synchronously by the tax sector, to ensure the implementation roadmap from January 1, 2026 takes place smoothly.
