The Hanoi Tax Department has just announced the list of enterprises owing tax and land fees. Accordingly, 143 enterprises have been rolling a total of VND253 billion ($11.1 million) in debts.

The list contains eight enterprises owing a total VND17 billion ($749,000) in land rental fees, including more than VND10 billion ($440,528) from Hong Ha Building Materials Import-Export JSC.

Besides, 135 other enterprises owed over VND235 billion ($10.35 million) in taxes, with the three biggest debtors being PIV JSC ($251,101), Trinh An-Viwaseen Investment and Construction JSC ($145,374), and House Building and Investment JSC ($132,158).

During the year’s first four months, the Hanoi Tax Department announced that 427 enterprises owed VND1.061 trillion ($46.74 million) in taxes and land rental fees. To date, 109 enterprises paid VND18 billion ($792,951) of this.

On the other hand, not every enterprise has been so accommodating of the authorities requests. The Tax Department’s list includes 19 enterprises that have not paid any kind of tax for 2-3 years now.

This and other concerning issues around tax and fee collection has led the Hanoi People’s Committee to establish a steering committee. The body is designed as a more effective and stricter body that would work to recover tax debts and land rent fees. The body is managed by Deputy Chairman of the Hanoi People’s Committee Nguyen Doan Toan.
