CIRCULAR

Supplement Circular No. 128/TT-BTC dated September 22, 1998 guiding the implementation of Government Decree No. 22/CP dated April 17, 1996 on administrative penalties for violations in the tax sector.

 __________________________________

On the basis of Government Decree No. 22/CP dated April 17, 1996 on administrative penalties for violations in the tax sector; Decision No. 280 TC/QD-NSNN dated April 15, 1997 of the Minister of Finance on the budget classification system; Circular No. 156/1998/TT-BTC dated December 12, 1998 of the Ministry of Finance guiding, supplementing, and amending the budget classification system, the Ministry of Finance supplements Circular No. 128/TT-BTC dated September 22, 1998 to guide the accounting of recovered taxes from tax evasion, administrative penalty fines in the tax sector, and proceeds from the sale of confiscated goods according to the budget classification system as follows:

Based on the amount deposited into the temporary account according to the notification of the State Treasury and related files, the agency responsible for the temporary account pays any associated costs (if any), issues a decision to award bonuses to the inspection unit at the prescribed ratio, and prepares vouchers to send to the State Treasury where the temporary account was opened to transfer the bonus amount from the temporary account to the inspection unit's account. At the same time, immediately proceed with the procedures to deposit the remaining amount into the state budget: recovered taxes from tax evasion are deposited into the corresponding sub-item of each type of tax; administrative penalty fines in the tax sector are deposited into Sub-item 051; Proceeds from the sale of confiscated goods, items, and means of transportation are accounted for in Sub-item 052, Chapter, Type, Item, and Sub-sub-item according to the current budget classification system.

Example: The tax authority audits the final settlement of Company A Limited Liability Company for the year and discovers that it has evaded corporate income tax amounting to 10,000,000 VND (ten million dong).

This is an act of false declaration to evade corporate income tax, therefore, in addition to having to pay the full amount of evaded tax of 10,000,000 VND (ten million dong), it also incurs a fine equal to the amount of evaded tax, which is 10,000,000 VND (ten million dong) for the administrative violation in the tax sector.

The recovered tax and the fine are accounted for as follows:

- Bonus on the recovered tax:

10,000,000 x 5%

=

0.5 million VND

- Remaining recovered tax:

10,000,000 - 0.5 million

=

9.5 million VND

- Bonus on the fine:

10,000,000 x 30%

=

3.0 million VND

- Remaining fine:

10.000.000 - 3.000.000

=

7.0 million VND

 

The remaining recovered tax 9.5 million VND is deposited into Sub-item 002, Sub-sub-item 02, Chapter 155C, type, item corresponding.

The remaining fine 7.0 million VND is deposited into Sub-item 051, Sub-sub-item 04, Chapter 155C, type 10, item 10.

This Circular takes effect fifteen days after the date of signature. Any guidance contrary to the provisions of this Circular shall be abolished. In the course of implementation, if there are any difficulties, please promptly report to the Ministry of Finance for study and resolution./.
