Send the income type and the amount and the API returns the tax, the taxable part, the rate and the article it comes from. Types: prize (lottery, promotions, betting, contests), inheritance and gift (securities, capital, real estate, registered assets), securities (0.1% of the price), capital_transfer (20% of the gain, or 2% of the price when the cost is unknown), real_estate (2%), royalty and franchise (5% above the threshold), capital_investment (5% on dividends, loan interest), casual (10% withholding), and the new items taxed from 1/7/2026: vn_domain, carbon_credit, license_plate (5% above 20 million) and digital_asset (0.1%). Gold bars are listed in the law but no tax is collected until the Government sets the threshold.

The date picks the rules: Luật Thuế TNCN 109/2025/QH15 and Nghị định 253/2026/NĐ-CP from 1 July 2026 (thresholds 20 million, casual withholding from 5 million per payment), the 2007 law as amended before that (10 million, 2 million). Exemptions are applied when you send them: real estate between family members (relationship), the only home (sole_home), bank-deposit interest (investment_kind=bank_deposit), open-ended fund certificates held 2 years or more. Non-residents use resident=false.

Business income of households is /v1/vn-household-tax; salaries are /v1/vn-salary and /v1/vn-pit-annual. Every answer has rules with the article, legal and a disclaimer.

FAQ

What changed on 1 July 2026?

Luật 109/2025/QH15 raised the thresholds for prizes, royalties, franchising, inheritances and gifts from 10 to 20 million per occasion, added a 2% fallback for capital transfers without a known cost, and taxed .vn domains, carbon credits, auctioned plates and digital assets.

Is gold taxed?

The law lists gold-bar transfers at 0.1%, but the threshold and start date are left to the Government; no tax is collected yet, so the API returns status pending_decree with an indicative amount.

Is an inheritance from my parents taxed?

Real estate between spouses, parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren, siblings and in-laws is exempt. Other inherited assets (securities, capital, cars) are taxed at 10% above 20 million.
