How to prepare for changes in taxation in Vietnam

During recent years, Vietnam Government has released many changes and new regulations in taxation field. A principal question that many of us including tax experts as well as the Company's Management Team always put into the table for deep discussion is "How to prepare for the changes in taxation in Vietnam?". As a Tax Senior Manager with over 10 working years experience in this field, I'd like to share my expertise knowledge to tax community and anyone who is interested in this topic. I have an idea to start a series of sharing here through one brief slide for each topic. My aim is to transfer complex taxation language into the simplest one as possible so that even non-taxation expert can get the idea/ message. In addition, I will focus on the areas that Tax Manager can add value to the Company by analyzing tax opportunity as well as risk exposure and advise remedial action accordingly.

In this first sharing - I summarize some key changes that could have significant effect to many companies in Vietnam. Hope it will be helpful. If you have any comment or concern, please feel free to let me know. I'm happy to discuss further with you as sharing is learning and gaining.
