Abstract

The individual income tax is one of the most important taxes in Vietnam and China, but determining its optimal burden is a difference in both two countries. The purpose of this paper is to analyze and compare the individual income tax burden between China and Vietnam. The findings show that Vietnam¡¯s burdens were higher than China during the period of 2002 - 2011. To come up with these findings, the authors use a combination of the descriptive and empirical method. The descriptive statistics method point out that the growth of Vietnams¡¯ GDP per capita and individual income tax revenue per capita was respectively 17.32% per year and 36.26% per year. These two indicators of China were 17.61% and 19.93%, respectively. The empirical method shows that Vietnam¡¯s GDP per capita increased 1 unit, the individual income tax revenue per capita would raise from 0.0126787 units to 0.0312373 units. In China, they were respectively from 0.0093344 units to 0.0180096 units.
