JOINT CIRCULAR No. 75/2001/TTLT-BTC-BTM-TCHQ OF SEPTEMBER 24, 2001 GUIDING THE REDUCTION OF IMPORT TAX ON GOODS OF LAO ORIGIN SPECIFIED
IN THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF THE SOCIALIST REPUBLIC OF VIETNAM AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE LAO PEOPLE’S DEMOCRATIC
REPUBLIC (THE 1999 CUA LO AGREEMENT) ON CREATION OF FAVORABLE CONDITIONS FOR PEOPLE, TRANSPORT MEANS AND GOODS TO TRAVEL ACROSS THE
BORDER OF THE TWO COUNTRIES
Pursuant to the agreement reached between the Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam and the Government of the Lao People’s
Democratic Republic concluded on August 23, 1999 in Cua Lo provincial town, Nghe An province, Vietnam;
In furtherance of the Prime Minister’s directing opinions expressed in the Government’s Official Dispatch No.1384/CP-QHQT of December
30, 1999 concerning the implementation of trade agreements with Laos, the Government Office’s Official Dispatch No.2252/VPCP-QHQT
of May 6, 2000 on tax exemption and reduction for goods of Lao origin or made in Laos, which are imported into Vietnam; and the Government’s
Official Dispatch No.261/CP-QHQT of April 5, 2001 on boosting trade ties with Laos;
The Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Trade and the General Department of Customs hereby jointly guide the reduction of import
tax on goods of Lao origin as follows:
I. SCOPE OF APPLICATION
A. Goods made in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic and imported into Vietnam shall enjoy the import tax rate equal to 50% of
the preferential one specified in the Preferential Import Tariff, if they satisfy the following conditions:
1. Being those specified in the List of goods items eligible for 50% (fifty per cent) import tax reduction, issued together with this
Circular. The specific quantity of each category of goods imported from Laos and eligible for 50% import tax reduction shall be annually
announced by the Ministry of Trade on the basis of the quantities agreed upon with the Lao Ministry of Trade.
In cases where a goods item concurrently satisfies the conditions for enjoying 50% import tax reduction and those for enjoying a CEPT
preferential tax rate, the lower rate of these two tax rates shall apply.
2. Having a certificate of origin (C/O) issued by the Ministry of Trade or the Trade Bureaus or the Trade Services of Vientiane city
and Saysomboun special zone of Laos.
3. Obtaining written certification that they are covered by the tax preferential program under the agreement between the two governments,
issued by the Ministry of Trade or Trade Services of Vientiane city and Saysomboun special zone of Laos.
4. Goods imported into Vietnam through border-gates officially opened along the Vietnam-Laos border.
B. Procedures for producing and inspecting certificates of origin (C/O):
Enterprises that import Lao goods, which are on the List of goods items eligible for 50% import tax reduction, issued together with
this Circular, and wish to enjoy the import tax reduction preference shall have to produce to the customs offices the originals of
certificates of origin of the goods together with the prescribed import voucher sets upon carrying out the import procedures.
In cases where enterprises have not yet obtained C/O for production upon carrying out the import procedures, the customs offices,
when calculating tax, shall apply the ordinary tax rates or CEPT preferential tax rates (if the conditions therefor are fully met)
and accept the delayed C/O production within 30 days counting from the date of submitting customs declarations. After submitting
C/O, enterprises shall be considered for reimbursement of overpaid tax amount (the difference between the paid tax amount calculated
at the ordinary tax rate or CEPT preferential tax rate and that calculated at 50%-reduced preferential import tax rate specified
in the Import Tariff).
Importing enterprises shall be held responsible before law for the legality and validity of the already submitted C/O. If any C/O
fraudulence is detected, the concerned importing enterprise(s) shall be handled according to the current law provisions.
When having any doubt about the truthfulness and accuracy of certificates of origin, the customs offices may request the concerned
enterprises to supply written evidences to prove it. The time limit for enterprises to supply additional vouchers shall be 30 days
after the C/O is submitted. Pending the re-inspection result, the 50% tax rate reduction for the concerned goods lots shall temporarily
not be given, and the ordinary tax rates or CEPT preferential tax rates (if the conditions therefor are fully met) shall be applied.
And at the same time, the procedures for goods release shall continue to be carried out if such goods items are not banned or restricted
from import and there is no doubt about false declaration of goods. In cases where goods owners have enough documents to prove the
Lao origin of their goods, the overpaid tax amount shall be considered to be reimbursed (the difference between tax amount calculated
at the ordinary tax rates or CEPT preferential tax rates already paid and that calculated at 50%-reduced preferential import tax
rates specified in the Import Tariff).
II. OTHER REGULATIONS
The regulations on tax calculation bases, tax collection and payment regime, accounting of tax amounts, report on tax collection and
payment results, import tax reduction, tax reimbursement, tax arrears collection and handling of violations shall be implemented
in compliance with the provisions of the Law on Export Tax and Import Tax and the current guiding documents.
III. ORGANIZATION OF IMPLEMENTATION
Once every three months (by 15th day of the following month at the latest) and annually (by February 15th of the following year at the latest), the General Department of Customs shall sum up and report the quantity and value (calculated
at the import tax calculation prices) of import goods subject to this Circular to the Ministry of Trade and the Ministry of Finance.
In cases where it detects that the Lao side issues written certifications for goods in excess of the volume already agreed upon,
the Ministry of Trade shall work together with the Lao Ministry of Trade in devising appropriate remedial measures.
This Circular takes effect after its signing.
This Circular replaces Joint Circular No.77/1999/TTLT-BTC-BTM-TCHQ of June 22, 1999 of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Trade
and the General Department of Customs guiding the implementation of the Prime Minister’s Decision No.181/1998/QD-TTg of September
21, 1998 on the import tax reduction for goods made in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic.
Any problems arising in the course of implementation should be reported by the concerned units to the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry
of Trade and the General Department of Customs for study, guidance and timely supplements.
