According to Hanoi Tax Department, although tax collection from using non-agricultural land accounted for a small proportion of total State revenue, it was a stable and regular source of revenue collection for the local budget. Therefore, strict management of this revenue was a very important task, which enhances the State management of land.

Due to the complex management of subjects, it is necessary to have active cooperation with local authorities. Thus, in the process of implementation, there still exist inadequacies, problems, and difficulties in the management, collection, and recovery of tax debts such as: incorrect information on tax declaration forms and tax identification numbers granted to taxpayers. The payment documents have not been entered into the system in time, resulting in taxpayers' inquiries and petitions.

Besides that, Hanoi Tax Department also required tax branches to check and review files for a deadline extension of paying land rent under Decree 41/2020/ND-CP. In case of the wrong subject, it must urgently notify taxpayers before July 30, 2020.
