How many personal tax numbers does a person have?

Clause 3, Article 30 of the Law on Tax Administration 2019 stipulates on subjects registering for tax registration and granting tax identification numbers:
“3. Issuance of TINs:
a) Each enterprise, business organization, or other organization is issued with 01 unique TIN to use throughout its entire operation, from the date of taxpayer registration to the date of TIN deactivation. A taxpayer’s branches, representative offices, and/or dependent units that pay their own tax shall be issued with separate TINs. In case an enterprise, organization, branch, representative office, or dependent unit combines taxpayer registration via the interlinked single-window system with business registration, the number of the certificate of enterprise registration, cooperative registration, and/or business registration (hereinafter referred to as “business registration certificate”) is also the TIN;
b) Each individual is issued 01 unique TIN to use throughout their whole life. Any dependant of that individual shall be issued with a TIN for the purpose of claiming a personal exemption for personal income taxpayers. The TIN issued to the dependant is also his/her personal TIN, which is used when paying his/her tax;
c) Enterprises, organizations, and individuals responsible for deducting and paying tax on behalf of taxpayers shall be issued with separate TINs for use when deducting tax;
d) Issued TINs shall not reissued to another taxpayer;
dd) TINs of enterprises, business organizations, and other organizations shall remain unchanged after converted, sold, gifted, or inherited;
…”
Thus, with the above regulations, each individual has only one tax code to use throughout his/her life.
In case an individual has 2 tax codes, he/she must terminate the later-issued personal income tax identification number and only use the first-issued tax identification number to declare and pay tax or deduct the generated income.

The reason why a person has 2 tax codes

Explaining for the case where 2 tax codes arise on the same individual, during the implementation process, the following reasons may appear:

  • Firstly, individuals have two identity card numbers.
  • Secondly, due to the loss of the old identity card.
  • Thirdly, the old ID card expired.
  • In case you change your place of residence to another province, you may grant a new identity card number.

Dossier to change tax registration information when an individual has 2 tax codes

Taxpayers prepare dossiers of notification of changes in tax registration information, including:

At the tax authority where the taxpayer moves from:

  • Firstly, the Declaration of adjustment of tax registration information (according to the form).
  • Secondly, a copy does not require authentication of a valid citizen identification card or identity card.

On the other hand, at the tax authority where the taxpayer moves to:

  • Firstly, a notice of taxpayer relocation (according to the form) issued by the tax authority where the taxpayer moves.
  • Secondly, a copy that does not require authentication of the certificate of business household registration (for business individuals) or the establishment and operation license or an equivalent license issued by the competent authority under the new address.

Penalty for late filing of changes in tax information?
