From 1 July 2025, domestic and foreign e-commerce and digital platforms with payment functions must withhold VAT and personal income tax (PIT) on individual sellers’ transactions in Vietnam.

Withholding rates vary by transaction type and residency status, with monthly electronic tax declarations required; canceled or returned transactions allow tax adjustments and refunds to sellers.

Platforms must issue withholding certificates, manage tax data, and comply with tax authorities; sellers must provide accurate identification and tax information to ensure proper tax withholding and reporting.
