Tax Department: Exit suspension cancellation can take 3-5 minutes

The Tax Department has announced that the process for canceling exit suspensions can be completed within 3 to 5 minutes due to interconnected tax data. This efficiency is part of a coordination mechanism between the tax authorities and the Immigration Department (A08) under the Ministry of Public Security.

Under current laws, individuals may face exit suspensions if they have not fulfilled tax obligations. This includes beneficial owners of active businesses with tax debts of 500 million VND or more, as well as legal representatives of businesses that are not operating at their registered addresses but have outstanding tax duties.

Once a taxpayer fulfills their obligations via the eTax Mobile app or the National Public Service Portal, the data is sent to the tax authorities for verification. Following the issuance of a cancellation notice, the information is transmitted to immigration authorities. Real-world observations indicate that this data transmission between systems can be finalized in as little as 3 to 5 minutes.
