LETTER

OF THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE NO. 10677 TC/TCT DATED OCTOBER 8, 2001
REGARDING INCOME TAX ON INCOME IN KIND

 

Dear: Provincial and Central City Tax Departments

 

Recently, the Ministry of Finance received recommendations from some enterprises regarding the application of personal income tax on income in kind when settling taxes for the year 2000. Regarding this issue, the Ministry of Finance has the following opinion:

According to the guidance provided by Circular No. 39 TC/TCT dated June 26, 1997 and Letter No. 687 TCT/NV2 dated March 6, 2001 of the General Department of Taxation on implementing tax settlement for the year 2000: For individuals whose income is paid in kind, such income must be converted into monetary value based on the average market price in the locality as determined by the Tax Department at the time of receiving the goods to determine taxable income.

However, to create favorable conditions for enterprises to proactively manage their business operations and reduce personal income tax for employees, the Ministry of Finance provides guidance as follows:

- As of January 1, 2001, all income paid in kind must be included in taxable income when calculating personal income tax for high-income individuals in 2001.

- Income in kind arising in 2000 as stipulated in the Labor Contract or Collective Labor Agreement below is not subject to personal income tax on high-income individuals:

+ Costs for repairing and equipping living facilities for foreign employees.

+ Awards in kind not exceeding one month's salary.

+ Tuition fees paid for the children of foreigners.

+ Air tickets (or travel means) when returning home to visit family for foreigners.

The guidance provided in this letter replaces the guidance at point 5.1, section II, Letter No. 687 TCT/NV2 dated March 6, 2001 of the General Department of Taxation.

The Ministry of Finance hereby informs the Tax Departments and guides enterprises to implement accordingly.
