Enterprises proactively update administrative boundary information

Risk aversion

These days, the Business Registration Office, Department of Finance is always crowded with people coming and going. The number of businesses coming to the headquarters or calling to request the Business Registration Office staff to consult on procedures for changing administrative boundary information on business registration certificates is quite large.

Mr. Vo Van Phuong, owner of a design company, said that at the beginning of the year, when Hue City was under the Central Government, we registered the procedure to change the administrative boundary information on the business registration certificate. Currently, the company has moved to a new headquarters, and is in the process of changing the administrative boundary due to the rearrangement of commune-level administrative units, so I have registered to change the information on the business registration certificate.

Not only Mr. Phuong, many other businesses have also registered to change administrative boundary information because of concerns about problems arising during business operations.

Mr. Tran Duy Nghia, a business operating in the field of trade and services, said, we also have information from the Business Registration Office and the Department of Finance that it is not mandatory to change administrative boundary information in the business registration license at the present stage, but we still proactively update. In fact, when administrative boundaries change, the old address is no longer used in official transactions. Not to mention, when working with banks or management agencies, if the information is not consistent, it is easy to create additional procedures that waste time and disrupt operations...

Business registration officers guide businesses through the procedures for registering changes to information on business registration certificates.

Most businesses, when carrying out procedures to change administrative boundary information on their business registration certificates, hope that the authorities can connect data on administrative boundaries so that businesses do not have to update them themselves. When the State adjusts boundaries, the database will also automatically update for businesses. That way, businesses will not have to worry about "inconsistent information", saving costs and reducing administrative procedure pressure.

The tax authority will automatically update the taxpayer's address information.

In fact, the need to change administrative boundary information on business registration certificates mainly focuses on the group of enterprises that need to apply for sub-licenses; open or change information at banks; register to participate in bidding, sign contracts with partners, especially state-owned enterprises or FDI enterprises.

It was noted that in the first days of July, the support atmosphere was quite urgent. Business registration officers both guided enterprises to carry out procedures online and contacted the Department of Private Enterprise and Collective Economy Development, the Ministry of Finance and related units to promptly process documents for enterprises.

Previously, the Department of Finance also sent a document to local businesses requesting that businesses continue to use the business registration certificate, business household registration certificate, etc. that have been issued. The business registration agency does not require businesses to register changes in address information due to changes in administrative boundaries. Businesses only update address information due to changes in administrative boundaries on the business registration certificate when needed or at the same time when registering changes or notifying changes to other contents in the business registration.

Communicate information to promptly process business records

In addition, the Tax Department of Region XII - "One-stop" Department of Hue City (now Hue City Tax) has also sent a notice to enterprises in Hue City about updating taxpayer address information according to the new administrative area and the tax authority directly managing the taxpayer. Specifically, the tax authority will update the taxpayer address information on the tax industry's database system according to the new administrative area list. Changing the taxpayer's address according to the new administrative area list does not require the taxpayer to adjust the information on the business registration certificate.

At the same time, it is affirmed: "This notice is the basis for taxpayers to explain to relevant agencies or to customers in case the address on the invoice is the address updated by the tax authority according to the new administrative area list but the information on the business registration certificate is still the address according to the old administrative area list." In case the taxpayer needs to update the business registration certificate, the tax authority requests the taxpayer to carry out the prescribed procedures with the business registration authority.
