On December 14, 1990, representatives of the Ministry of Finance met with representatives of the Ministry of Education and Training. It was determined that tax policies for labor production and scientific research activities in units under the Ministry of Education and Training should be implemented according to current state regulations, specifically:
1. Article 18 of Decree No. 53-HĐBT dated May 27, 1989 of the Council of Ministers stipulates: "Universities, secondary vocational schools, and general high schools that engage in production and business activities selling products externally must pay corporate tax or goods tax (if applicable)."
2. Decision No. 270-CT dated July 30, 1990 of the Chairman of the Council of Ministers on urgent issues for the academic year 1990-1991 stipulates: "For products produced by school production and service facilities and other educational institutions, if sold outside the scope of use
of the institution, they must pay tax according to the mechanism applicable to administrative agencies engaged in economic activities." 3. Letter No. 3986-PPLT dated December 7, 1990 from the Office of the Council of Ministers to the State Scientific Committee states: "Before the Chairman of the Council of Ministers signed Decision No. 268-CT, the issues mentioned in the above report by the State Scientific Committee were carefully considered by the Standing Committee of the Council of Ministers and relevant ministries and agencies. Therefore, the spirit and wording of this decision do not require adjustment or supplementation.
