Agricultural land tax exemption remains vital for rural development and poverty reduction

The Party and State have consistently prioritised agricultural and rural development, with a strong focus on improving farmers' livelihoods.

The agricultural land use tax exemption has been a key policy tool in advancing this goal.

First introduced in 2001, the policy has been adjusted and extended over time to reflect changing conditions. It is currently set to run until the end of 2025 under National Assembly resolutions. The proposal to extend it to 2030 aligns with major Party policies on land consolidation and the drive for sustainable agricultural development.

Beyond easing the financial burden on farmers, the exemption helps channel resources back into production, boosting productivity and improving product quality. This is especially vital as Viet Nam's agriculture sector faces growing pressure to compete in an increasingly globalised market.
