How to calculate non-agricultural land use tax in 2023
According to the guidance in Circular 153/2011/TT-BTC, the amount of non-agricultural land use tax payable will be calculated according to the following formula:
- Firstly, for residential land, land for production and business, non-agricultural land used for business purposes, the amount of tax payable (VND) is equal to the tax incurred (VND) minus the tax exempted or reduced (if any). In which, the tax incurred is determined by taking the tax incurred (VND) equal to the taxable land area (m2) multiplied by the price of 1m2 of land (VND/m2) multiplied by the tax rate (%).

- Second, for land in multi-storey houses, multi-household houses, apartment buildings (including cases with basements) and underground construction works, the amount of tax payable is equal to the tax incurred minus the tax exempted or reduced (if any). In which, the tax incurred is determined by taking the tax incurred on the housing area of each organization, household, or individual multiplied by the allocated number multiplied by the price of 1m2 of corresponding land multiplied by the tax rate.
In case there is only underground construction, the tax incurred is equal to the area of construction used by the organization, household or individual multiplied by the allocation coefficient multiplied by the price of 1m2 of corresponding land multiplied by the tax rate.
Third, in case non-agricultural land is used for business purposes but the land area used for business purposes cannot be determined, the tax incurred is equal to the land area used for business (m2) multiplied by the price of 1m2 of land (VND) multiplied by the tax rate (%).
How is the price of 1 square meter of land used for non-agricultural land use tax determined?
The price of 1 m2 of taxable land is the land price according to the purpose of use of the taxable land plot as prescribed by the Provincial People's Committee and is stabilized for a 5-year cycle, starting from January 1, 2012. In case there is a change in the taxpayer during the stabilization cycle or factors arise that change the price of 1 m2 of taxable land, it is not necessary to re-determine the price of 1 m2 of land for the remaining time of the cycle.
In case the State allocates land, leases land, or changes the land use purpose from agricultural land to non-agricultural land or from non-agricultural production and business land to residential land during a stable cycle, the price of 1 square meter of land for tax calculation is the land price according to the purpose of use as prescribed by the Provincial People's Committee at the time of land allocation, land lease, or change of land use purpose and is stable for the remaining period of the cycle.

In case the land is used for the wrong purpose or encroached upon, the taxable price of 1 square meter is the land price according to the current purpose of use as prescribed by the Provincial People's Committee and applied locally.
