For taxpayers, non-cash payments help manage cash flows clearly and limit risks when using cash. Simultaneously, this creates favorable conditions for bookkeeping, accounting records, and performing tax declarations and payments according to regulations.
Changing Awareness and Payment Habits
Non-cash payment refers to utilizing electronic payment methods such as bank transfers, QR code scanning, bank cards, and e-wallets in transactions. This method not only helps transactions be executed quickly and conveniently but also contributes to improving transparency in production and business activities. Non-cash payment is becoming a popular trend in the digital economy and brings many practical benefits, gradually changing the awareness and habits of citizens, enterprises, and household businesses in transactions.
Mr. Nguyen Cong Nhien, a household business owner in Binh Phuoc Ward, stated: Currently, the demand for non-cash payment methods among citizens is increasing day by day. Particularly, young people and those working in agencies and units mostly pay via bank transfers. To meet consumer needs, along with the support of banks and tax authorities in creating payment accounts and registering them with tax bodies, his grocery store has long adopted non-cash payment forms.
At the "Smart Payment in the Digital Era" Seminar organized during the 2026 Digital Finance Festival (Ho Chi Minh City), Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Van Thang assessed: Non-cash payment has become the lifeblood of the digital economy, interconnecting banking with commerce, healthcare, education, transport, tourism, public services, and other digital platforms.
Sharing the conveniences of applying this payment method, Mr. Nguyen Cong Nhien added: Initially, when registering the account linked to the tax authority, there were a few incomplete steps. He was dedicatedly guided and explained to by tax officials right at his store. Applying non-cash payments helps his store manage cash flow better, and consumers who wish to transfer funds also find it more convenient in daily transactions.
Currently, most household businesses, and even small-scale retail traders, have changed their habits from only accepting cash to accepting bank transfers. The development of non-cash payment forms provides convenience and safety for consumers during transactions. Many people do not need to carry cash, eliminating worries about encountering risks such as theft, dropping money, or receiving the wrong change. In addition, when making electronic payments, consumers only take a few seconds. Non-cash payments also help consumers manage their spending, saving transaction histories on bank transfer applications anytime, anywhere.
Encouraging Public Response
According to economic experts' evaluations, non-cash payment is becoming the lifeblood of the digital economy, embraced by millions of citizens through banking applications, e-wallets, and QR code scanning. These transactions make spending more transparent and convenient.
For state management tasks, non-cash payment is a solution that helps enhance tax management efficiency, limiting revenue concealment or the use of cash or personal accounts in business activities to evade tax obligations. Expanding electronic payment methods contributes to building a transparent, equal, and healthy business environment.
Therefore, changing payment habits from cash to electronic methods not only brings practical benefits to each individual and organization but also contributes significantly to the national digital transformation process, improving tax management efficiency and ensuring revenue sources for the state budget.
Discussing the policy of promoting non-cash payment forms to enhance tax management efficiency, Head of Dong Nai City Tax Department Nguyen Toan Thang stated: Pushing electronic payments forward effectively supports the use of electronic invoices in sales and service provisioning. When payment and invoice issuance are executed synchronously on electronic platforms, transactions become transparent and clear, creating favorable conditions for both sellers and buyers in managing documents and looking up information.
To seriously implement the directive contents from the Ministry of Finance and the Tax Department, the City Tax Department has requested departments and base-level tax offices to urgently deploy synchronous tax management measures, promoting non-cash payments across all economic sectors and industries. Therein, particular focus is placed on tax management for business and processing activities of gold, silver, and precious stones.
Mr. Nguyen Toan Thang emphasized: To raise compliance awareness among enterprises, household businesses in particular, and taxpayers in general, the tax sector regularly conducts communication activities and issues timely warnings on tax violations and crimes, as well as the legal consequences when conducting non-cash payments against regulations to gain illicit profits, appropriate tax money, or evade taxes. The tax sector will publicize information on violating organizations and individuals to promptly warn and deter subjects breaking the law regarding non-cash payments.
