Why FDI companies need specialist tax compliance
FDI enterprises face a rigorous monthly, quarterly, and annual tax filing calendar under the Tax Administration Law 108/2025/QH15. Late submissions can trigger administrative fines from VND 2-25 million (organization level, depending on delay) 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 255/2026/ND-CP.
Our licensed CPAs handle the entire compliance lifecycle. We prepare computation working papers, maximize your legal deductions, and e-file via your tax token. We proactively monitor your position to prevent costly surprises during tax inspections.

Frequently Asked Questions
FDI enterprises typically face Corporate Income Tax (CIT) at 20% (15% for companies with prior-year revenue up to VND 3 billion and 17% above VND 3 billion up to VND 50 billion, from the 2025 tax period), 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.
VAT returns are filed monthly or quarterly (depending on your revenue). CIT provisionals are filed quarterly, with an annual finalization. PIT is withheld monthly from salaries, declared quarterly, and finalized annually. FCT is declared each time a payment is made to a foreign contractor.
FCT is a withholding tax applied to payments made to foreign organizations or individuals for services, royalties, or licensing fees. The Vietnamese company is responsible for withholding and remitting the tax. Rates vary by transaction: a CIT component of 0.1%–10% and a VAT component of 1%–5% (Article 12 of Decree 320/2025/ND-CP; Annex I of Circular 69/2025/TT-BTC).
