Tax industry strives to overcome difficulties after merger

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Hue - Head of Regional Tax DepartmentQuy Palace1 said: Phu Quy 1 Regional Tax Department was merged from 3 Tax Departments headquartered in Quy Hop district. The difficulty is that the headquarters are far away, such as Quy Chau district is 50 km away, Que Phong district is 80 km away.

The Phu Quy 1 Regional Tax Department has 2 Tax Management Teams, including the Enterprise Management Inspection Team and the Inter-Commune Inspection Team. These teams are in charge of the areas of 3 mountainous districts such as Quy Chau, Que Phong, and Quy Hop. The civil servants are in charge of each commune, managing individual households, non-agricultural land use tax, etc. The current difficulty for tax officials is that in addition to completing their tasks at the grassroots level, every week the civil servants also have to return to the headquarters in Quy Hop district for meetings and work briefings.

After the merger, the Sub-Departments are currently facing some difficulties. For example, the Regional Tax Sub-Departments in Nghe An all operate in 2-3 districts, so the Party Committee of one district cannot direct the implementation of resolutions on tax work in other districts...

Grasping the general situation, in recent times, Nghe An Tax Department has done a good job of ideological work, regularly grasped the situation at the grassroots level, promptly resolved difficulties and problems, in order to create unity and solidarity, avoid confusion and concerns among tax officials. The industry effectively implemented information and propaganda work, ensuring that all merged Tax Departments achieved and exceeded the plan.

Regional Tax Departments gradually stabilize the situation; arrange appropriate staff without affecting budget collection; continue to coordinate collection with departments, branches, and organizations...

Nghe An Tax Department closely directs and guides the organization to effectively implement the establishment of regional tax branches. If there are any external problems, they must be promptly reported for handling with the goal of stabilizing the organization soon; guide the business process. In addition, manage application software and information technology infrastructure, facilities and working conditions to excellently complete assigned tasks.
