Vietnam’s Ministry of Finance announced that the US and Vietnamese officials discussed various updates to the 2015 tax treaty between the two countries, including amending protocols to the agreement on 13 May 2025.
The proposed protocol would amend the treaty to address Pillars One and Two.
At the programme Dang Ngoc Minh, Deputy Director General of the General Department of Taxation, led a delegation from the Ministry of Finance in a working session with Rebecca Burch, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the US Department of the Treasury, and several members of her team.
Signed on 7 July 2015, the DTA aims to avoid double taxation and prevent fiscal evasion concerning income taxes between the US and Vietnam. Vietnam has approved the treaty, but the US has not at the time of writing.
