No certificate of tax staff training program required for tax staff from July 18, 2022?

I have the following questions: Recently, when I watched the news and read the newspaper, I knew that there would be changes in the standards of tax officer in Vietnam. So in the coming time, will tax employees be required to have a certificate of training for the tax staff rank?

From July 18, 2022 will not require a certificate of tax staff training program for tax staff?

The current regulations on standards for tax officer in VIetnam are made according to the content in Clauses 3 and 4, Article 13 of Circular 77/2019/TT-BTC, as follows:

“Article 13. Tax staff (code 06.040)
3. Standards of professional and professional competence
a) Understand the socio-economic situation in the area under its management for implementation;
b) Having professional qualifications, ensuring the good performance of tax administration tasks;
c) Having knowledge of tax, tax law and administrative law;
d) Understand the purposes, contents and professional processes of tax administration applicable to taxpayers under their management;
d) Understand the principles and methods of making and managing tax books;
e) Having skills in reading, understanding and drafting common administrative documents and using tax management computer software and other supporting tools;
g) Have skills in planning and checking and evaluating work.
4. Standards of training and retraining qualifications
a) Possessing an intermediate diploma or higher with a training major suitable to the requirements of the job position;
b) Having a certificate of training program for tax staff.”

However, in the near future there will be changes in the standards of tax officer in Vietnam. Specifically, the standards of tax officer in Vietnam from July 18, 2022 will comply with the provisions of Clauses 3 and 4, Article 13 of Circular 29/2022/TT-BTC as follows:

“Article 13. Tax staff (code 06.040)
3. Standards of professional and professional competence
a) Understand the socio-economic situation in the area under its management for implementation;
b) Having professional qualifications, ensuring the good performance of tax administration tasks;
c) Having knowledge of tax, tax law and administrative law;
d) Understand the purposes, contents and professional processes of tax administration applicable to taxpayers under their management;
d) Understand the principles and methods of making and managing tax books;
e) Have skills in reading, understanding and drafting common administrative documents and using tax management computer software and other tools;
g) Have skills in planning and checking and evaluating work.
4. Standards of training and retraining qualifications
Possessing an intermediate diploma or higher with a training major suitable to the requirements of the job position;”

According to the above regulations, from July 18, 2022, it will no longer be compulsory for tax employees to have a certificate of training program for tax staff.

In addition, tax employees must ensure the standards of training and retraining and professional and professional capacity as prescribed by law.
