Guiding business households to switch from contract tax to declaration

Hà Vy |

Shifting from contract tax to declaration with simple procedures, creating conditions for business households to gradually make operations transparent and manage effectively.

Converting declaration methods - simple procedures

Pursuant to the provisions of Clause 4, Article 3; Point b Clause 3, Section b6, Point b Clause 4, Article 13 of Circular No. 40/2021/TT-BTC dated June 1, 2021 of the Ministry of Finance, business households that are paying taxes under the contract method (household contract) can convert to the declaration method.

Accordingly, when switching to the declaration method, the contracted household will make adjustments and supplements to the contract tax declaration according to Form 01/CNKD issued with Circular 40/2021/TT-BTC of the Ministry of Finance. On the declaration, business households need to accumulate the option of "Conversion of tax calculation methods for households" so that the tax authority can use it as a basis for adjusting the contracted tax rate for the conversion period. The deadline for submitting adjusted declarations is no later than the 10th day from the date the business household begins to change the tax calculation method.
