As a result, Mr. Nguyen Van, Director of Binh Minh Vung Tau Trading Services Co., Ltd., has been temporarily suspended from exiting Vietnam from August 26, 2024, until the tax debt is fully paid to the state budget. The company is headquartered at 25 Bach Dang, Ward 5, Vung Tau City, Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province.
The reason for the temporary suspension of exit is that Mr. Nguyen Van has not fulfilled his tax obligations as prescribed by the Law on Tax Administration.

According to the investigation, the business field of Binh Minh Vung Tau Trading Services Co., Ltd. is the installation of electrical systems.
Article 143 of the 2019 Law on Tax Administration stipulates that the act of not issuing invoices when selling goods or services in accordance with the law or stating a lower value on the invoice than the actual payment value of the goods or services sold shall be considered an act of tax evasion.
