To achieve these results, the tax sector has focused on effective revenue collection measures, closely monitoring major revenue sources and reviewing irregular and unstable sources of revenue. At the same time, it has strengthened inspections, urged taxpayers to fulfill their obligations and recovered outstanding tax debts.

Notable results

According to statistics from Dong Nai Tax Department, several major sources of state budget revenue during the first eight months of the year recorded strong growth compared with the same period last year, making a positive contribution to the city's budget collection.

Revenue from the non-state economic sector reached nearly VND11 trillion, up 51% year on year and exceeding the 2026 assigned estimate. This was the fastest-growing source among the major revenue sources. Revenue from foreign-invested enterprises exceeded VND 16.2 trillion, up nearly 30% compared with the same period in 2025, continuing to be an important source of local revenue. Revenue from state-owned enterprises exceeded VND 4.4 trillion, up 25% year on year. Revenue from housing and land exceeded VND 7 trillion, up nearly 28% from the same period in 2025 and exceeding the 2026 estimate, making a significant contribution to the increase in domestic revenue.

In addition, revenue items from registration fees, lottery activities and other revenue sources also recorded notable results and grew compared with the same period last year.

Commenting on domestic budget revenue in recent months, Huynh Thien Duy Phuong, Head of the Budgetary, Professional, Legal and Tax Affairs Division of the city Tax Department, said that revenue from production and business activities in the first eight months of 2026 increased by more than 36% compared with the same period in 2025, despite the ongoing tax payment extension period. This was attributed to the maintenance and continued growth of business and production activities. In addition, value-added tax revenue was generated from real estate transfers, contributing to higher budget revenue.

For land-related revenues, excluding revenue from auctions, collections exceeded VND7 trillion in the first eight months of 2026, surpassing the statutory estimate for the year. This resulted from strengthened efforts to urge residents to pay land-use fees, while communes and wards accelerated the processing of administrative procedures related to changes in land-use purposes. These measures contributed to higher land-use fee revenue from residents compared with the same period last year.

Strengthening effective revenue collection measures

Based on the results achieved during the first eight months of 2026 and factors affecting state budget revenue and collection performance in the city, the city Tax Department estimates that state budget revenue in September will continue its strong growth momentum.

To fulfill domestic state budget revenue targets and tasks, Director of the city Tax Department Nguyen Toan Thang said that in the final months of 2026, the tax sector will continue making every effort and strictly implement measures to achieve the highest possible state budget revenue. These measures include strengthening revenue management, preventing revenue losses and recovering tax arrears; continuing to intensify communication and support for taxpayers; managing electronic invoices, tax declarations and value-added tax refunds. The tax sector will also accelerate the modernization of tax administration, focus on inspections, strengthen tax management for individuals and household businesses, and other revenue sources.

Specifically, the tax sector will continue to fully and resolutely implement tax administration tasks and solutions for 2026 from the beginning of the year in accordance with directions from the Ministry of Finance, the Tax Department and the city People's Committee. The sector will focus on monitoring and reviewing supporting-industry enterprises, investment expansion projects and areas eligible for tax incentives in order to promptly identify and manage emerging revenue sources.

Tax, fee and land-rent extension, exemption or reduction measures already issued will be implemented promptly and effectively to support businesses and residents.

At the same time, the sector will continue reviewing and determining outstanding tax debts, particularly difficult-to-collect debts, and proactively organize efforts to fully collect outstanding amounts once the extension period expires.

In the first eight months of 2026, total state budget revenue in the city exceeded VND70 trillion, reaching more than 70% of the estimate assigned by the city People's Council and increasing by more than 25.8% compared with the same period in 2025. Of this amount, domestic state budget revenue exceeded VND54 trillion, while revenue from import and export activities exceeded VND16.9 trillion.
