According to Hanoi Tax Department, in recent times, there was information that VEC “reeled” from the application of coercive measure conducted by Hanoi Tax Department with the amount of payment over VND 5,000 billion.

The enforcement period started from June 4, 2019 to the end of July 3, 2019 (30 days), the coercion amount was VND 1,033 billion.
