Understanding requirements and Processes for VAT Refunds in Vietnam in 2025 for Exporters and new Projects/Businesses
The issuance of VAT refunds for exporters of goods and services in Vietnam remains a bottleneck and concern for many. The fundamental concept of ensuring domestic input VAT is refunded to exporters, and does not accumulate within the cost of the goods for international competitiveness, is well understood, however the process that businesses need to manage and how the Vietnamese tax authorities deal with this continues to be challenging.
At Alitium, we understand that a VAT refund is not just an application, it involves the entire business process – from how purchases are made, the allocation and recording of inputs in a production process, and the record keeping requirements at every stage prior to and after export.
