In that spirit, Lao Dong Newspaper and the Tax Department - Ministry of Finance jointly chaired, and the Vietnam Federation of Commerce and Industry (VCCI) jointly organized the Workshop "Promoting self- compliance and full tax contributions - Building a strong era" at 2:00 p.m. on October 23, 2025 at the headquarters of Lao Dong Newspaper in Hanoi.
The workshop took place in the context of Vietnam finalizing the Tax System Reform Strategy to 2030, while promoting digital transformation in public financial management. This is the time when the Vietnamese tax sector has reached a nearly comprehensive digitalization level with more than 99% of enterprises declaring, paying and refunding taxes electronically, but the bigger challenge is the transition from "advisory compliance" to "voluntary compliance".
The event gathered leaders of state management agencies, representatives of the National Assembly's Economic and Financial Committee, international organizations such as the IMF, JICA, Deloitte, domestic and foreign business associations, along with many economic experts, technology experts... The central contents of the workshop focused on clarifying three core pillars: transparency, fairness and companionship.
Through the working sessions, the workshop will mention major changes in institutional reform: reducing compliance costs, increasing policy forecasting capabilities, developing digital services with taxpayers as the center, while fostering public ethics and an ethical administrative culture in the entire system.
The event was broadcast live on the Lao Dong electronic newspaper Laodong.vn, rebroadcast on electronic newspapers and digital platforms of Nhan Dan, Tien Phong, Vietnamnet, Dan Viet, Tuoi Tre Thu Do, Thong Tinh & Tinh..., and was spread by reporters from press and television agencies attending and reporting.
