Vietnam tax compliance crackdown

Overview

In July 2026 Vietnam’s tax administration intensified oversight, flagging high‑risk entities and publishing a list of 393 inactive taxpayers. The Gia Lai provincial tax office followed with a detailed reminder for newly‑established household businesses, outlining a July 31 deadline, revenue thresholds (up to VND 1 billion), required forms (Form 01/TKN‑CNKD, Form 01/BK‑STK, Form 01/CNKD, etc.) and common mistakes that could cause return rejection.

In early August, the same authority escalated enforcement by issuing decisions under Law No 108/2025/QH15 to freeze bank accounts of taxpayers whose liabilities had remained unpaid for more than 90 days. The measure targets accounts held at state‑treasury‑linked banks, aiming to curb chronic arrears and recover state revenue. Together, the alerts, guidance and account‑freeze orders illustrate a coordinated crackdown on tax non‑compliance and data inaccuracies across Vietnam.
