- Penalties for issuing invoices at the incorrect time range from a warning to fines between 500,000–50,000,000 VND (US$19–US$2,000), depending on the number and type of invoices.
- Penalties for failure to issue invoices also range from a warning to fines between 1,000,000–50,000,000 VND (US$38–US$2,000), based on the number and type of invoices.
