Shall the tax incentive program for automobile supporting industry in Vietnam be extended until December 31, 2027?
Pursuant to Article 9 of Decree 26/2023/ND-CP regarding the tax incentive program for automobile supporting industry, a preferential import tax rate of 0% is applied to materials, supplies, and components not yet produced domestically for manufacturing, processing (assembling) products that are prioritized for the development of the automotive manufacturing and assembly industry (referred to as automotive supporting industry products) until December 31, 2024.
To date, the implementation period for the tax incentive program for automobile supporting industry is nearing its end, while the tax incentive program for manufacturing and assembling automobiles prescribed in Article 8 of Decree 26/2023/ND-CP will continue until 2027.
Therefore, to further support enterprises and enhance the role of the automotive supporting industry, the Ministry of Finance has presented a proposal for a draft decree amending and supplementing Article 9 of Decree 26/2023/ND-CP, suggesting an extension of the tax incentive program for automobile supporting industry. Thus, when the amended and supplementary decree takes effect, automotive supporting industry products will continue to benefit from a 0% preferential import tax rate until December 31, 2027.
