Talking to reporters, leaders of the Import-Export Tax Department (Quang Ninh Customs Department) explained that in January 2023, Nghi Son Refinery encountered a problem, leading to a decrease in production output while the demand increased, so Petrolimex increased the number of imports, resulting in a sharp increase in revenue from imported petroleum compared to the same period last year.
Along with that, Vietnam Coal-Mineral Industry Group and the Northeast Corporation have increased the amount of imported coal to mix to serve the demand for power production, which leads to revenues from imported coal increasing over the same period in 2022.
The revenues from imported gasoline alone reached VND 1,347.18 billion, growing 424.14% (an increase of VND 1,091 billion) over the same period in 2022.
With the momentum of revenue collection in the first months of 2023 and the forecast of the situation in the first quarter of 2023, Quang Ninh Customs estimated that revenue collection would reach VND 3,540 billion (after refunding tax of about VND 200 billion because enterprises make additional submission of C/O to enjoy special preferential import tariff rates); an increase of 38.82% compared to the developed scenario (equivalent to an increase of VND 990 billion).
