E-commerce tax revenues soar 55% in five months

Tax revenues from organisations and individuals engaged in e-commerce and other digital economic activities reached VND74.4 trillion (approximately US$2.85 billion) in the first five months of 2025, representing a 55% increase compared to the same period in 2024, according to the Ministry of Finance.

A total of 158 foreign service providers have registered, declared, and paid taxes through the Department of Taxation’s electronic portal, contributing VND5.7 trillion, up 41% year-on-year.

In addition, around 100,000 business households and individual entrepreneurs used the designated e-tax portal to register, declare, and pay nearly VND1.1 trillion in taxes.

Nearly 93,000 domestic organisations and individuals engaging in e-commerce activities contributed a total of VND67.6 trillion in tax payments.

Tax authorities also reviewed 164,661 taxpayers involved in digital business activities. As a result, retroactive tax collections were imposed on enterprises, totalling over VND416 billion. For business households and individuals, 25,201 cases were processed, generating an additional VND331 billion in tax collections.

In recent time, the tax sector has accelerated digital transformation in the management of business household and individual taxpayers. Efforts include guiding users in registering e-tax accounts, installing the eTax Mobile application, and facilitating electronic tax payments.

Local tax departments have also stepped up enforcement, tightening control over tax calculation, declaration, payment, and invoicing to ensure accurate, timely, and full collection in accordance with tax regulations.
