Hanoi Tax Department would like to extend our warm greetings and express our gratitude for the cooperation of Taxpayers in implementing tax policies and laws in general, and in conducting the review and standardization of personal tax identification number data in particular.

We are implementing the Task 06 project to develop applications for population data, identification, and electronic authentication to support the national digital transformation from 2022 to 2025, with a vision until 2030. This project aims to establish connections and data sharing with the national database on population and the government's electronic identification and authentication system.

In order to ensure data synchronization between the tax database and the national population database, and to comply with the directives of the General Department of Taxation, the Hanoi Tax Department is implementing a review and standardization of individual tax identification data. The ultimate goal is to use the personal identification number as the tax identification number.

The Hanoi Tax Department respectfully announces and requests taxpayers to update their tax registration information as follows:

 1. The individuals subject to tax identification number review are individuals with Vietnamese nationality and:

- Individuals who have generated taxable income subject to personal income tax and are considered dependents according to the regulations of the law on personal income tax;

- Individuals who have incurred tax obligations to the state budget according to the regulations of the law on taxes, fees, and other state revenues, such as non-agricultural land use tax, registration fees for houses, land, automobiles, motorcycles, boats, etc.;

- Individuals acting as representatives of business households using a 10-digit tax identification number to declare tax obligations on behalf of the business household..

2. The objective is to review and standardize the data of individual tax identification numbers:

To ensure that each individual is issued a unique tax identification number to be used throughout their lifetime, tax identification numbers are also provided to dependents of individuals for the purpose of tax deductions based on family circumstances. We kindly request that taxpayers update three specific pieces of information in a complete and accurate manner:

- Full name;

- Citizen identification number or identification number for individuals without a citizen identification card;

- Date of birth of the individual.
