Subject to Confiscation of Money Obtained from Lottery Betting, Is That Correct?

I participated in lottery betting and lost VND 920,000. When I won VND 1,600,000, I was required to pay VND 1,600,000 in back taxes. Is this in accordance with the law or not? Please provide clarification.

According to Clause 1, Article 26 of Decree 167/2013/ND-CP, a warning or a fine ranging from VND 200,000 to VND 500,000 shall be imposed for the act of purchasing lottery and betting numbers.

Additionally, confiscation of evidence, means of administrative violation, and money obtained from the administrative violation can be enforced.

As per the information, you lost VND 960,000 on betting and won VND 1,600,000. Therefore, the authority's confiscation of the amount of VND 1,600,000 obtained from the administrative violation is legally justified.

Sincerely!
