Focus on collecting coal import tax from Laos

At the meeting, the Provincial Tax Department raised difficulties and obstacles in the process of implementing the tasks. In the process of building the 2024 State budget revenue estimate, the Tax Department coordinated with relevant departments and branches to review the expected land use fee revenue sources in the area, including the projects: Residential area Ward 1, Dong Ha City; T&T Group's tourism and resort area; Cua Tung brackish shrimp farming project; Sgo resort Cua Tung; Quang Tri Industrial Park. Currently, only the Quang Tri Industrial Park project has a deduction notice with the amount of 47,966 billion VND, the remaining projects have not been implemented. In addition, the Provincial Tax Department also faces difficulties in resolving cases of preferential exemption from land rent and land use fees for implementing socialized projects; tax management of e-commerce activities; tax declaration and payment activities of coal business units imported from Laos.

From the above difficulties, the Provincial Tax Department recommends that the Provincial People's Council direct relevant departments, branches and sectors to speed up the implementation of procedures for projects collecting land use fees and land rents expected to arise in 2024. Propose that the Provincial People's Committee give instructions on collecting land rents for socialized projects; direct departments, branches and sectors, and People's Committees of districts to actively coordinate with tax authorities in implementing the use of electronic invoices and tax management for e-commerce and private transport businesses; direct relevant departments and branches to urge and mobilize businesses importing coal from Laos to declare taxes through units registered for tax at the Provincial Tax Department in the third quarter of 2024.

In his concluding remarks, Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the Provincial People's Council Nguyen Dang Quang requested the Provincial People's Council to create all conditions, and the Provincial People's Committee to direct relevant departments, branches, sectors and units to actively coordinate with the Provincial Tax Department to effectively perform the task of tax management and state budget collection in the province. In particular, strengthening the use of electronic invoices; focusing on managing and collecting taxes from businesses importing coal from Laos, units and individuals doing tourism business. After this working session, the Provincial Tax Department needs to study and review to propose and recommend to the Provincial People's Council more specific and detailed solutions with the goal of collecting state budget exceeding the assigned target. On that basis, the People's Council will have policies and resolutions suitable to the actual situation.
