Circular

No. 13344/BTC-TCT dated October 24, 2005

Regarding the administrative penalty for losing tax stamps and receipts

       

To: Tax Departments of provinces and centrally-administered cities

 

Recently, some Tax Departments have inquired about the administrative penalties for losing tax receipts and stamps. In response to this matter, the Ministry of Finance has the following opinion:

Decree No. 185/2004/NĐ-CP dated November 4, 2004 of the Government stipulates on administrative penalties in the field of accounting and does not include provisions for penalizing the loss of accounting documents. Therefore, Article 27 of the Tax Stamp Management and Usage Regulations issued by Decision No. 30/2001/QĐ-BTC dated April 13, 2001 of the Minister of Finance is no longer in line with Decree No. 185/2004/NĐ-CP mentioned above and thus has ceased to be effective.

Accordingly, from the date Decree No. 185/2004/NĐ-CP takes effect, administrative penalties as stipulated in Article 27 of the Tax Stamp Management and Usage Regulations will no longer be enforced. In cases where fines have already been imposed for lost receipts and paid into the State budget, such payments will not be refunded. Officials who lose tax stamps or receipts shall be disciplined according to the Civil Servant Law.

The Ministry of Finance hereby informs the Tax Departments of provinces and centrally-administered cities to note and implement this directive.
