Tax Deduction • Taxpayers that produces SCT-liable goods from SCT- liable raw materials may have SCT amounts already paid on raw materials deducted upon the determination of SCT amounts payable at the stage of production. • The deductible SCT amount is equivalent to the SCT amount of raw materials used for the production of SCT-liable goods sold. • Formula to determine SCT deductible upon SCT declaration: Excise tax payable = SCT payable on SCT-liable goods ex- warehoused for sale in a period - SCT amount already paid on raw materials purchased which are equivalent to volumes of ex-warehoused goods for sale in the period Example 4-14: In a tax declaration period, ABC Company has the following operations: + It imports 10,000 liters of liquor and already paid SCT amount of VND 250 million upon importation (based on the receipt of excise tax payment at the stage of importation). + It ex-warehouses 8,000 liters to produce 12,000 bottles of liquor. + It sells 9,000 bottles of liquor, the excise tax amount payable for these 9,000 bottles is VND 350 million Required: Calculate SCT payable in the period. Excise tax amounts deducted = (250M / 10,000 liters) x (8.000 liters / 12.000) x 9.000 bottles = VND 150M. SCT amount payable = 350M – 150M = VND 200M Tax Deduction (cont.) • Taxpayers of SCT-liable goods shall be entitled to deduct SCT amounts already paid at the importation stage when determining SCT amounts payable on goods sold domestically. • Deductible SCT amount is equivalent to the SCT amount of the SCT-liable imported goods sold after import and must not exceed the SCT on goods sold domestically. • In cases where SCT amounts are not fully deducted due to force majeure events, taxpayers shall include the remaining SCT after deduction in expenses when calculating corporate income tax. • If the SCT amount already paid has not yet been determined for the quantity of materials used for manufacturing goods sold in the period, the figures of the previous period may be used to calculate deductible SCT and the actual amount shall be determined at the end of the quarter or year. In any case, deductible SCT must not exceed the SCT on the quantity of materials set out in technical regulations applied to such products. The manufacturer must register such technical regulations with the supervisory tax authority. Tax Reduction • Taxpayers that produce excise taxable goods and face difficulties caused by natural disasters or unexpected accidents are entitled to tax reduction. • The tax reduction level shall be determined based on the actual extent of damage caused by natural disasters or unexpected accidents but must neither exceed 30% of the payable tax amount in the year the damage occurs nor exceed the balance between the value of damaged assets and the received compensation (if any).
