Revenues from taxes and fees (excluding land use
fees) hit 350 billion VND (13 percent of assigned target, 12 percent of
provincial target and 84 percent of the figure for the same period last year).
Land use fees totaled 70 billion VND (5 percent of assigned target, 4 percent
of provincial target and 363 percent of the figure of the same period last
year).
Notably, 11 out of the 17 State budget revenue
sources showed increases this year, including land use fees (263 percent),
fixed revenues in communes (86 percent), fees from granting rights to mineral
exploitation (59 percent), non-agricultural land use tax (31 percent), lottery
(24 percent), personal income tax (11 percent), and environmental protection
tax (17 percent). Tax collection from local State-run businesses was up 100
percent.
The taxation department will propose measures to
the provincial People’s Committee on reforming mechanisms, policies and administrative
procedures to encourage and attract investment, develop business production,
promote economic growth, thus creating more revenue sources for the State
budget.
It will coordinate measures to implement more
effectively policies of the government and provincial People’s Committee on
stabilizing macro economy, increase support for businesses, promptly remove
their difficulties, and facilitate business and production activities.
The department will step up measures to prevent budget
collection loss, contributing to curbing inflation, maintaining macroeconomic
stability and ensuring social welfare. It will also push ahead with the
modernization of tax management alongside with administrative procedure reform.
In March, the taxation sector aims to collect
350 billion VND for the local State budget to increase the three-month revenue
to 770 billion VND, meeting 18 percent of assigned target, 16 percent of
provincial target and a year-on-year rise of 6 percent, according to Nguyen Anh
Tuan from the Taxation Department./.
Dao Village’s honey – a product certified with a 3-star OCOP (One Commune One Product) rating by Thong Nhat Agricultural Cooperative in Dao Village (Hoa Binh City) – is highly regarded by consumers for its quality, richness, and variety in packaging. The distinctively sweet taste of Dao Village’s honey leaves a lasting impression on anyone who has tried it.
In alignment with Project No. 07-DA/TU, issued by the Hoa Binh provincial Party Committee on November 1, 2021, Lac Thuy district has actively promoted investment and supported the sustainable development of its industrial and handicraft sectors during the 2021–2025 period. Alongside this, the district has remained committed to preserving and revitalising traditional craft villages.
Located in the northern part of Lac Thuy district, with a temperate climate and fertile soil, Phu Thanh commune has great potential and advantages in growing tea. The long-standing experience, combined with strict adherence to organic farming practices in the tea gardens, ensures that the dried tea products from Phu Thanh and Lac Thuy as a whole are sold out immediately upon production, providing a stable and prosperous life for the local people.
Amid efforts to streamline the administrative apparatus, Hoa Binh province has intensified measures to address challenges in land clearance, resettlement support, and infrastructure investment, aiming to speed up the progress of key projects.
Hoa Binh province has posted an unprecedented economic growth rate of 12.76% in the first quarter of 2025, marking its highest quarterly performance to date and positioning it as the second fastest-growing locality in the country, trailing only Bac Giang province.
Under current regulations, products in the One Commune – One Product (OCOP) programme that are rated three stars or higher must undergo re-evaluation every three months. However, in reality, some of these products fail to consistently meet the required standards, raising concerns about the sustainability of their OCOP certification. This underscores the urgent need for producers to enhance product quality and gradually develop their OCOP products into strong, marketable brands.
