Mr. Dinh Ngoc Thang, Director of the Customs Department of HCMC, analyzed that the products with increased import turnover all had low import tariff rates from zero percent to 5 percent due to preferential treatment from the free trade agreements so the increased tax amount could not compensate for the decreased import tax.

In Ho Chi Minh City, the accumulated state budget revenue reached about VND43 trillion on June 15 while the estimated ordinance this year is VND115 trillion. The budget revenue in June this year is estimated at VND8.2 trillion.
