Of the total revenue, central budget collection surpassed the estimate by 19.3%, and that of local budget by 20.4%.

The ministry attributed the high budget revenue to the economic recovery, with gross domestic product (GDP) expected to expand by 7.5% in 2022, higher than the plan.

In 2022, the Ministry of Finance has also implemented many policies on exempting, reducing and postponing taxes, fees and charges to help businesses restore production and business, thereby making their contribution to the budget.
