The Ha Tinh Tax Department recently disclosed information on 685 taxpayers who owed taxes and other dues to the state budget as of June 30, 2024, totaling over VND783 billion. Notably, this list included Son Hai Group Joint Stock Company, with outstanding tax debts of more than VND1.15 billion.
Son Hai Group is currently working on the North-South Expressway project in Ha Tinh province. In late May 2024, the company was fined VND120 million by the Ha Tinh People’s Committee for administrative violations in mineral exploitation for construction purposes.
Specifically, from April 2023 to April 2024, Son Hai Group exploited and used ordinary construction minerals (soil for filling and leveling) within the project area of the Vung Ang – Bung section of the East North-South Expressway project without registering the area, capacity, volume, method, equipment, and mining plan with the Ha Tinh People’s Committee.
Son Hai Group, established in 1998, is one of the largest private enterprises in Quang Binh Province. Over two decades, along with its core construction business, the company has expanded into capital-intensive sectors like energy and real estate. As of May 2023, its chartered capital stood at VND2,366 billion, with Mr. Nguyen Viet Hai, Chairman of the Members’ Council, holding 99.912%, and Mr. Le Thanh Huong, Director, holding 0.088%.
Based in Quang Binh, Son Hai gained public attention in 2014 when it participated in the National Highway 1A expansion project. While the standard warranty period for road projects was two years, Son Hai boldly offered a five-year warranty for the two packages it implemented, Package 10 and Package 14, spanning 15km in Quang Binh Province.
In 2022, Son Hai Group made headlines again when it proposed to the Ministry of Transport to guarantee a 10-year warranty for the packages it undertook on the North-South Expressway project. These packages included Package 10-XL of the Mai Son – National Highway 45 project, Package XL-01 of the Nghi Son – Dien Chau project, the entire Nha Trang – Cam Lam project, and subsequent packages in Phase 2 of the North-South Expressway project.
