Why FDI Companies Need Specialist Tax Compliance
FDI enterprises face a rigorous monthly, quarterly, and annual tax filing calendar under the Tax Administration Law 38/2019/QH14. Late submissions trigger automatic penalties from VND 2-25 million and a daily late payment interest of 0.03%.
Compliance spans the new CIT Law 67/2025/QH15 (20% standard rate), VAT Law 48/2024/QH15, and complex Foreign Contractor Tax withholding. Furthermore, related-party transactions require strict Transfer Pricing documentation under Decree 20/2025/ND-CP.

FDI enterprises typically face Corporate Income Tax (CIT) at 20% (with 15-17% SME tiers from Oct 2025), Value Added Tax (VAT) at 8-10%, Personal Income Tax (PIT) on employee salaries, and Foreign Contractor Tax (FCT) on overseas payments. Import duties and industry-specific levies may also apply.
