Speaking at the event, Deputy General Director of Taxation and Director of the Ha Noi Taxation Department Nguyen The Manh said the event aims to promptly deal with arising obstacles in the process of adopting tax policies targeting the Japanese enterprises.

Several Japanese investors spoke of tax policy flaws involving transfer pricing, franchising, added value tax software, corporate and individual income tax, and special consumption tax.

A representative from the Japan Business Association in Vietnam said the association would continue acquiring Japanese firms’ feedback on tax policies and working behaviors of tax officials and cadres to report to the Ha Noi Taxation Department.

In recent years, the Japanese businesses’ revenue to the Ha Noi’s State budget has accounted for nearly 30 percent of the total paid by foreign invested ones. In 2016, Japanese firms contributed 4,819 billion VND (209.5 million USD) to the city’s budget. The figure rose to 2,854 billion VND (124 million USD) in the first half this year, up 23 percent annually.

Under a scheme on developing Ha Noi’s economy in the context of carrying out Vietnam-Japan free trade agreements until 2020, the city asked departments, agencies, and the taxation sector to reform administrative procedures by improving the quality of tax filing and payment, making it easier for Japanese enterprises to do business in Ha Noi.
