CÔ GIÁO Ở TP.HCM BỖNG DƯNG LÀM GIÁM ĐỐC Ở ĐÀ NẴNG, BỊ CẤM XUẤT CẢNH VÌ NỢ THUẾ / SUDDENLY BECOMING A

While preparing to broad a plane to travel to China, a teacher in HCM City was detained because she was subject to exit suspension due to tax debt in Da Nang.

She missed the plane, and lost money because someone made her a director

In the report sent to a competent agency, Ms. L.T.T (a teacher in Cu Chi, HCM City) stated that during the Tet holiday, she went to the airport to complete exit procedures for a trip to China but was invited by security personnel for questioning and issued an exit suspension minute.

The reason was that Ms. T. was listed as the director of a company in Da Nang owed 64 million VND in taxes.

When Ms. T. affirmed that she was a teacher living and working in HCM City and did not own any businesses or enterprises in Da Nang, she was advised to contact the Da Nang Tax Department for further clarification.

After providing her personal tax code, she discovered that she was registered as the director of HALLE Company, located on Trung Luong 18 Street, Hoa Xuan Ward, Cam Le District, Da Nang.

Shocked, as she hadn’t been to Da Nang in over 10 years and had never registered as a business, Ms T. asked the competent agency if there had been a mistake.

“At that point, they asked if I had ever lent my ID card to anyone, and I suddenly remembered that I had previously lost my personal identity paper and had them reissued.

The tax agency informed me that I was registered as the director of HALLE Co., Ltd., licensed by the Da Nang Department of Planning and Investment (now the Department of Finance), and they advised me to contact that office for clarification” Ms. T. said.

Ms. T. shared that due to the exit suspension, she lost tens of millions of VND spent on plane tickets and a tour to China with her family. Forced to return home with her suitcase, Ms. T. was instructed to write a petition and send it to the competent agency to explain the situation.

Transferring the file to the police due to signs of forgery in the documents

In a conversation with Tuoi Tre Online, Ms. T. provided a document confirming the loss of her personal identity paper and the issuance of new ones.

The police of Ward 12, Binh Thanh District, confirmed that Ms. T. lost her ID card in April 2023 and applied for a replacement in May 2023.

Ms. T. affirmed that she had not received any notification about tax debt in the past. Even when the school conducted tax declarations and personal income tax finalizations during the year, there was no indication of any tax debt.

A representative from the Business Registration Department (Department of Finance) stated that according to their view of the business registration date, HALLE Company was granted its initial business registration certificate on March 15, 2021.

On December 21st, 2023, the Business Registration Department received an application to change the legal representative of this company.

The application was complete and valid according to regulations (including a certified copy of Ms. T.’s ID card), and the department issued the first amended registration certificate.

Based on Ms. T.’s complaint, the Business Registration Department suspected the documents might be forged and sent an official dispatch to the Da Nang City Police to coordinate in verifying the information declared in the falsified business registration documents related to HALLE.

This case is currently under investigation by the Da Nang City Police.

“Shell” Company, “ghost” address

Following the business registration address listed in HALLE LLC’s enterprise registration certificate, reporters discovered that the company is a “shell” company. The registered headquarters on Trung Luong 18 is a residential house. The homeowner did not know that their address was being used as a company’s registered headquarters on the business license.

HALLE LLC has a charter capital of 1 billion VND, with two contributing members: Tran Phuoc Quoc, who contributed 950 million VND, and Nguyễn Thị Thùy Linh, who contributed 50 million VND.
