Notably, the reduction in the revenue in the first five months is partly due to the strengthening of measures to implement Decree 100/2019/ND-CP, causingthe consumption of wine and beer in many localities to fall.

The General Department of Taxation said that with the impact from policy and the disease on revenue, although the Tax revenue does not have growth compared to the same period in 2019 (reaching 97.6%), the tax authorities at all levels have synchronously deployed revenue management solutions.

In addition, tax authorities at all levels have inspected and closely controlled the VAT refund and strengthened management of sales invoices.

The General Department of Taxation has assigned a target of tax debt collection 2020 to tax departments, with the goal of collecting at least 80% of the recoverable tax debt as of December 31, 2019 and reducing tax debt to less than 5% of the state budget revenues in 2020.

The General Department of Taxation said that after the implementation of Decree 41/2020/NĐ-CP, as of June 1, 2020, the general department has received 128,684 applications for extension of deadlines for tax and land use fee payment with an amount of VND36,963 billion.

In addition, regarding the management of tax registration, declaration, payment and refund, the Tax authority has focused on reviewing the number of enterprises temporarily suspendingbusiness and stoppingoperation, especially after the Lunar New Year, ensuring tax administration for 100% of enterprises operating; inspect and strictly control the production, business, tax declaration and payment of enterprises.

In the first five months of 2020, the whole country had 48,341 new enterprises, down 5,419 enterprises compared to the same period in 2019; 30,607 enterprises stopping operations, down 90 enterprises; 19,963 enterprises temporarily stopping operations, up 3,078 enterprises; but there were 11,629 enterprises restoring their operations, up 1,421 enterprises.

In addition, the tax agency continues to provide electronic tax services for taxpayers, promoting the provision of online public services at levels 3 and 4 for people and businesses, and integrating these services withthe Government's portal.

In particular, implementing Decree 41/2020 / ND-CP, the tax authorities at all levels promptly upgraded the information technology system and integrated it into the National Public Service Portal to apply for payment extension of tax and land rent, thereby creating the most favorable conditions for taxpayers affected by the Covid-19 pandemic to enjoy the State's policy.
