Updated list of domestically manufactured goods - effective from October 2021
08 September, 2021
On 17 August, the Ministry of Planning and Investment issued Circular 05/2021/TT-BKHDT setting out the machinery, equipment, spare-parts, means of transport for special usage, raw materials, supplies, and semi-finished products that can be produced domestically. Circular 05 replaces the previous list which was issued in 2018 under Circular 01/2018/TT-BKHDT and will take effect from 02 October.
This list of domestically manufactured goods is the basis for companies to access the duty-exemption and not-subject-to-VAT schemes applicable to goods which are not yet manufactured in Vietnam and so is a very key document for many importers.
