English Summary
This report notes the USD/VND exchange rate strengthened on March 5, 2026—Vietcombank’s selling rate rose to VND26,307 (+0.35%), while the informal market reached VND26,900. Though not a regulatory decree, this FX movement triggers mandatory compliance actions under Vietnam’s Tax Management Law (No. 38/2019/QH14) and Circular 43/2023/TT-BTC. Foreign businesses must: (1) Record all USD-denominated revenue/expenses using the State Bank of Vietnam’s official mid-rate on transaction date; (2) Submit Local File and Master File for related-party transactions exceeding VND10 billion annually; (3) Revalue foreign-currency monetary items quarterly and recognize gains/losses in taxable income—no offsetting against corporate income tax. Deadlines: Local File due by June 30 following fiscal year-end; transfer pricing documentation subject to audit upon request. Practical impact includes higher import duty bases, stricter scrutiny of intercompany loans, and mandatory FX risk disclosures in annual financial statements.
