Tax office strengthens management of e-commerce platforms

Vietnam is one of the first countries in Southeast Asia to successfully implement national tax rights for foreign enterprises conducting cross-border e-commerce. After more than five months of operating a portal for foreign suppliers, 30 companies voluntarily declared and paid taxes of more than VND520 billion ($22 million). To continue to strictly control taxes in this area, the General Department of Taxation is building a portal to receive information from e-commerce platforms.
