The setting of import tax calculation prices must be effected in an uniform, strict and objective manner without causing any obstruction and negative phenomena in the release of goods.

II. To replace Point 3, Item II, Part C on conditions for being considered for application of contractual tax calculation prices as follows:

"3. Being a unit or enterprise undertaking the import or entrusted to undertake the import, that has paid all forcible taxes (with certification by the customs agency);"

III. To replace Part D on handling of violations as follows:

"If an enterprise is detected as having made a fraudulent foreign trade contract; having failed to declare to the customs agency any change in the use purposes of materials, and/or raw materials which have been taxed according to prices stated in the foreign trade contracts; or having violated the provisions of this Circular, besides having to pay the import tax and special consumption tax (if any) arrears, shall be sanctioned for tax evasion according to the provisions of the Law on Import and Export Taxes, the Law on Special Consumption Tax, the Government’s Decree No. 22/CP of April 17, 1996 on sanction against administrative violations in the field of tax, Circular No. 45/TC-TCT of August 1st, 1996 guiding the implementation of the Government’s Decree No.22/CP and Circular No. 128/1998/TT-BTC of September 22, 1998 amending and supplementing the Finance Ministry’s Circular No. 45/TC-TCT of August 1st, 1996."

IV. This Circular takes effect as from August 1st, 1999. Other provisions of Circular No. 82/1997/TT-BTC of November 11, 1997, which are not contrary to this Circular, are still in effect. In the course of implementation, if any difficulty arises, organizations and individuals are requested to report it promptly to the Ministry of Finance and the General Department of Customs for consideration and appropriate amendment and/or supplement.
