According to reports in the regional media this week, the Vietnamese authorities are considering reducing the corporate tax rate from 28% to 25% from January 2008.
The proposals were reportedly put forward by the Finance Ministry for public consultation, in addition to plans to simplify the country's priority tax forms, and to increase tax benefits for businesses in sectors including high tech, education, health care, and the environment.
Changes to the VAT regime currently in place are also being considered.
In addition, the Finance Ministry is said to be pushing for overseas fund management firms to be permitted to establish branches or 100% foreign-owned ventures in Vietnam.
