Car and motorbike registration fees will be paid via electronic banking.

Car and motorbike registration tax payers can pay via e-banking or pay in cash or transfer money at bank transaction counters.

The Ministry of Finance is seeking comments on the draft Circular on exchanging electronic data information for collecting and paying registration fees for automobiles and motorbikes to guide the principles and procedures for exchanging electronic data information for collecting and paying registration fees for automobiles and motorbikes and handling errors, checking and adjusting information on collecting and paying electronic registration fees for automobiles and motorbikes.

According to the draft, the principle of exchanging electronic registration fee data is that electronic registration fee data is exchanged in XML format and has the sender's digital signature, which is equivalent to a seal and signature. Electronic registration fee data with a digital signature transmitted by the General Department of Taxation's Electronic Information Portal to the Traffic Police Department is the basis for the traffic police agency to carry out vehicle registration procedures.

The electronic registration fee data transmission message from the General Department of Taxation's Electronic Information Portal and the Traffic Police Department must be accompanied by an electronic confirmation message between the sending and receiving units and the sending and receiving time. The confirmation message is the basis for determining the success of the electronic data transmission.

Taxpayers must fully declare information such as the number of the technical safety and environmental protection certificate or the number of the type quality certificate and complete information on the declaration form and be legally responsible for the declared data.

Taxpayers can pay registration fees via e-banking or pay cash, transfer money at bank transaction counters, State Treasury. In case of information errors in accounting for state budget collection and payment for registration feescar, motorbikes, banks or the State Treasury are not allowed to refund money to taxpayers.

The General Department of Taxation's electronic portal will transmit all electronic registration fee payment data to the Traffic Police Department.

The Bank or State Treasury is responsible for conducting verification; completing information on accounting for state budget revenue according to regulations on handling errors in payment, ensuring that it does not affect the recording of budget payments for taxpayers.

Regarding the order, reception and processing of electronic registration fee data, the draft stipulates that the General Department of Taxation's Electronic Information Portal receives information from electronic declarations on the Electronic Information Portal; electronic taxpayers submit declarations directly to the tax authority, and documents are submitted directly to the State Treasury or bank. Then, the General Department of Taxation's Electronic Information Portal transmits all electronic registration fee payment data to the Traffic Police Department.

Immediately after the General Department of Taxation's Electronic Information Portal receives successful confirmation from the police agency about receiving electronic registration fee payment data, the General Department of Taxation's Electronic Information Portal sends a notification message to the taxpayer to the taxpayer's phone number registered with the tax agency so that the taxpayer can go to the Traffic Police Agency to complete vehicle registration procedures.

In case when carrying out procedures for registration of license plates for automobiles and motorbikes, the traffic police agency that issues vehicle registration plates checks and detects that the electronic registration fee data transmitted by the Tax authority is different from the vehicle records provided by the taxpayer when registering the vehicle, the Traffic Police agency will return the records so that the taxpayer can go directly to the Tax authority or the collection agency (State Treasury/Bank) to adjust the declared information./.
