Frequently Asked Questions

When do I need to file a PIT finalization in Vietnam?

If you have income from a single employer and your employer finalizes on your behalf, you may not need to file separately. However, if you have multiple income sources, freelance income, or want to claim a refund for over-withheld tax, you must file by March 31 of the following year.

Why might I get a tax refund?

You may be over-withheld if your employer used a higher estimated tax rate, you registered dependants mid-year, you changed jobs and had tax withheld at each employer separately, or your annual income fell below the taxable threshold.

How do I register dependants for the deduction?

Submit Form 02/DK-NPT-TNCN to your employer or directly to the tax authority. You need supporting documents such as birth certificates for children or proof of dependency for parents. The deduction applies from the month of registration.
