In reply to Official Letter No.
500 CT/CV-QLDN of November 16, 2005, of the Tax Department of Yen Bai province,
concerning the procedures for declaration, payment and finalization of tax on
capital transfer, the General Department of Taxation gives the following
opinions:
Under the provisions of Section
V, Part B of the Finance Ministry's Circular No. 128/2003/TT-BTC of December
22, 2003, when "Banpu" Public Company Limited (the foreign party to
the Yen Bai-Banpu Limestone Joint Venture) transferred its contributed capital
in the joint jenture to another company, its incomes from the capital transfer
shall be subject to business income tax (BIT) at the rate of 28%.
The payable BIT amount should be
determined as follows:
Payable BIT amount = Taxable
income x 28%
Taxable income = Transfer price
- Initial value of transferred capital amount - Transfer expenses

- The transfer price is the
total value actually gained by the transferor under the transfer contract. Where
the transfer contract did not state the payment price or the tax authority had
grounds to conclude that the payment price was not determined based on the
market price, the tax authority may inspect and fix the contract payment value
on the basis of reference to the market price or the price saleable to a third
party and similar transfer contracts.
- The initial value of the
transferred capital amount is determined on the basis of accounting books and
documents proving the investor's contributed capital at the time of capital
transfer, which are recognized by the Joint Venture Management Board.
- Transfer expenses mean actual
expenses directly related to the transfer reflected on the original documents
recognized by the tax authority. Where transfer expenses arose in a foreign
country, such original documents should be certified by a public notary or
independent audit institution of such country. Transfer expenses include the
expense for carrying out necessary legal procedures for the transfer; charges and
fees paid when carrying out the transfer procedures; expenses for the
transactions, negotiations and signing of the transfer contract; and other
expenses with documentary evidences.
Within five (05) working days
after the competent agency approves the capital transfer, the transferee shall
make a capital transfer tax declaration (according to the enclosed form) and
submit it to the tax authority of the locality where the transferor makes tax
registration, declaration and payment, enclosed with the transfer contract (a
copy certified by the transferor and transferee); the competent agency's
decision approving the capital transfer (a copy certified by the transferor and
transferee); the certification of the contributed capital and original
documents on the transfer-related expenses; and, at the same time, fully remit
the payable tax amount into the state treasury and send the copy of the tax
payment document to the capital transfer-approving agency.
If detecting errors in the
declaration or calculation of the payable tax amount, within five (05) working
days after receiving the declaration, the tax authority shall notify the
transferee of the payable tax amount or request the transferee to supply
necessary documents for the accurate calculation of the payable tax amount.
The General Department of
Taxation hereby notifies the Tax Department of Yen Bai province thereof for
compliance.

THE GENERAL DIRECTOR OF TAXATION
DEPUTY GENERAL DIRECTOR
