ANTD.VN - According to the Vietnam Federation of Commerce and Industry (VCCI), the regulation on the responsibility of transferring tax deduction voucher data to tax authorities for e-commerce platforms is unreasonable.

Tighten tax management for people doing business on e-commerce platforms |
Commenting on the draft Decree regulating tax management for business activities on e-commerce platforms and digital platforms of business households and individual businesses, VCCI pointed out many unreasonable points such as: different tax rates for residents and non-residents; cumbersome administrative procedures...
In particular, regarding the responsibility of transferring tax deduction voucher data to the tax authority, Article 6.3 of the draft stipulates that e-commerce platforms are responsible for transferring tax deduction vouchers to the tax authority.
According to the business's feedback, this regulation is inappropriate. The e-commerce platform has declared in detail and fully the amount of tax deducted each month to the tax authority and the tax authority has full information and data about the taxpayer and the amount of tax payable.
“The e-commerce platform will provide tax deductions for business individuals (similar to what income deduction units are doing). Meanwhile, transferring tax deduction vouchers in large volumes (millions of vouchers each year) will increase costs for businesses. Therefore, it is recommended that the drafting agency remove this provision” - VCCI suggested.
Similarly, regarding taxable revenue. Article 4.2.d of the draft stipulates that taxable revenue is the amount of money from the sale of goods and services that the e-commerce platform collects from the buyer. This provision is understood to mean that the seller's revenue will be the total amount paid by the buyer.
However, this regulation is not appropriate. Each transaction conducted through an e-commerce platform includes many products/services at the same time, such as: products/services of the seller; transportation services (of an independent transportation unit); e-commerce services of the platform; payment services, etc.
According to VCCI, the amount the buyer pays for the transaction is the total amount paid for the above services, not just paid to the seller.
Therefore, to ensure reasonableness, VCCI proposes that the drafting agency amend in the direction that taxable revenue is the amount of money the e-commerce platform expects to pay to individual businesses.
