LETTER

OF THE MINISTRY OF FINANCE NO. 1346 TC/TCT ON APRIL 26, 1997
REGARDING THE SPECIAL CONSUMPTION TAX FOR DOMESTICALLY PRODUCED ALCOHOL
WITHIN THE COUNTRY

 

Dear: Provincial Tax Departments

 

Pursuant to the Special Consumption Tax Law; the Law Amending and Supplementing Certain Provisions of the Special Consumption Tax Law; Decree No. 97/CP dated December 27, 1995 of the Government detailing the implementation of the Special Consumption Tax Law and the Law Amending and Supplementing Certain Provisions of the Special Consumption Tax Law; to address some difficulties in determining the tax base price and the time for paying the special consumption tax on domestically produced bottled alcohol; implementing the opinion of the Deputy Prime Minister regarding the handling of the special consumption tax on the aforementioned alcohol as stated in Circular No. 1006/KTTH dated March 5, 1997 of the Government Office; the Ministry of Finance hereby provides specific guidance as follows:

 

1. Regarding the tax base price for the special consumption tax on domestically produced bottled alcohol.

The selling price serving as the basis for determining the tax base price for domestically produced alcohol is the selling price at the place of production before the special consumption tax is applied, excluding the value of the bottle and box packaging.

For alcohol bottling and packaging enterprises where the selling price recorded on the invoice includes the bottle and box packaging, based on the sales volume recorded on the sales invoice, the enterprise shall prepare a statement of revenue from sales, separately listing the revenue from alcohol sales for tax calculation purposes and the revenue from bottle and box packaging sales (according to the attached statement model). The turnover tax on bottle and box packaging sales is calculated at a rate of 2% for those purchased externally and 4% for those produced by the enterprise itself.

The value of the bottle and box packaging deducted from the selling price when calculating the special consumption tax is the purchase price recorded on the purchase invoice; for bottles collected from old bottles, it is the actual purchase price recorded on the purchase invoice, if there is no purchase invoice, the enterprise must prepare a purchase statement clearly indicating the name, address of the seller, quantity, and actual purchase price according to the guidance of the tax authority managing the enterprise. For bottles and boxes produced by the enterprise, the production cost is used but is limited to the maximum purchase price of similar products.

 

2. Regarding the deadline for declaring and paying the special consumption tax

Enterprises producing alcohol shall declare and pay the special consumption tax in accordance with the provisions in Section III of Circular No. 98 TC/TCT dated December 30, 1995 of the Ministry of Finance guiding the implementation of Decree No. 97/CP of the Government (declaring and paying taxes when issuing invoices for sales). Specifically, for alcohol transferred to agents for sale where the agent only receives commission and has not yet sold the alcohol, the producing enterprise temporarily does not need to pay the special consumption tax on this amount of alcohol.

The basis for determining the quantity of goods transferred to agents but not yet sold and thus not subject to tax is the monthly declaration of the quantity of goods sent to agents for sale that have not been sold, confirmed by the tax authority managing the agent and the tax authority managing the alcohol-producing enterprise. When preparing the monthly tax declaration, the enterprise bases its declaration on this statement to declare the actual quantity of alcohol sold and the special consumption tax payable.

For the quantity of alcohol produced by the enterprise and transferred to branches for sale but not yet sold, the declaration and determination of the special consumption tax payable also apply similarly to the above-mentioned alcohol sold through agents receiving commissions.

 

3. Regarding the effective date

The determination of the selling price of bottled alcohol as the tax base price for the special consumption tax and the deadline for declaring and paying the tax mentioned above shall be implemented from May 1, 1997 and shall only apply to alcohol-producing enterprises and agents selling alcohol that have conducted transactions with invoices and accounting records in accordance with prescribed regulations.

 

Request all Tax Departments to guide and inspect units to comply with the provisions of this document. During the implementation process, if there are any difficulties, the Tax Departments should report to the Ministry of Finance (General Department of Taxation) for research and resolution.
