Dairy firms protest customs’ demand for $43.84 mln in back taxes
Eight dairy producers and importers in Vietnam have sought the government’s help, claiming that they are unfairly asked by customs to pay around VND1 trillion (US$43.84 million) in back taxes.
In a letter sent to the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Finance this week, the businesses, including giant Vinamilk and Dutch-owned FrieslandCampina, said they have been subjected to a “wrongful” decision by the General Department of Vietnam Customs.
