The automatic tax refund system synthesizes taxpayer information from the database of the income paying agency, tax declaration data of individuals and data from the national database on population. The application will automatically create a suggested Personal Income Tax Finalization Declaration, pre-filling tax refund information for taxpayers.

Accordingly, taxpayers only need to access the eTaxMobile application to confirm the information. When the taxpayer confirms, the system automatically creates a tax refund decision and creates a refund order to transmit information to the State Treasury to pay the tax refund to the taxpayer.

After 7 days of implementing automatic tax refund, the number of personal income tax refund requests that the tax authority has determined to be automatically refunded is 42,881 with an amount of 229.3 billion VND. The tax authority has created a tax refund order and sent it electronically to the Treasury to pay tax refunds to taxpayers.

The tax authority recommends that, in order to receive an automatic personal income tax refund, individuals and taxpayers need to quickly download and install the Etax Mobile application on their mobile phones, thereby helping individuals to get a quick tax refund, save time and not have to go to the tax authority.

Through reviewing data at tax authorities, up to now, there are 94,165 units that have deducted personal income tax but have not yet paid the deducted personal income tax to the state budget.

Hereby, the tax authority recommends that income-paying units promptly pay the deducted personal income tax of individuals to the state budget to avoid being fined and charged late payment fees according to the provisions of law and not to affect the right to automatic tax refund of individuals making tax refund settlements.

To organize and implement the automatic personal income tax refund process, the Tax Department has assigned the Head of the Regional Tax Department, the Head of the Large Enterprise Tax Department, and the Head of the E-commerce Tax Department to step up propaganda to taxpayers.
