Transfer pricing regulations in VietnamCompanies in Vietnam that have entered into transfer pricing transactions need to disclose this in their annual tax returns, 90 days after the end of the financial year. The tax return needs to show what transfer pricing transactions it has entered into, and the value of these contracts. As of 2014, companies need to also provide what the arms’ length price of the transaction would be, and explain the discrepancy with the actual transaction, if there is one.The above example is just an illustration of a typical transfer pricing transaction. Transfer pricing does not just occur in a parent-subsidiary relationship, but covers a broader range of related parties.Tax authorities, like in Vietnam only recognize transfer pricing transactions under certain conditions. One of these is that the price is set according the arms’ length principle. This principle, devised by the OECD, holds that the price should be determined as if the parties were not part of a group, or otherwise related. In other words, as if the company were “at arms’ length”. This is to avoid that funds are diverted by charging an artificially high price that an unrelated market party would never pay. Vietnam follows this principle.
