Form 01/DNXN: What Is the Tax Clearance Confirmation Letter?
Form 01/DNXN – Request for Tax Obligation Clearance Confirmation (issued under Circular No. 80/2021/TT-BTC) is an important document in tax administrative procedures in Vietnam. It is commonly used by individuals or organizations to request confirmation from the tax authority that they have fulfilled all tax obligations to the State.
When Is a Tax Clearance Confirmation Required?
1. For Dissolution or Business Termination
When a company is dissolved or ceases operations, one of the mandatory steps is to obtain confirmation of tax obligation fulfillment from the tax authority.
This confirmation serves as the basis for the company to complete the dissolution dossier with the Department of Planning and Investment or other relevant regulatory bodies.
2. Company Transfer or Change of Ownership
In the case of a capital transfer or full acquisition of a company, the transferee typically requires a tax clearance confirmation to ensure there are no outstanding tax liabilities from prior periods.
3. To Meet Requirements From Regulators or Business Partners
Certain administrative procedures (related to customs, banking, foreign investment, etc.) and bidding dossiers may require businesses to submit a tax clearance confirmation as proof of transparent, compliant operations before the application can proceed.
