Tân Hoàng Minh Chairman Barred Temporarily From Leaving Vietnam Over Company Tax Debt
Vietnamese tax authorities temporarily barred Tân Hoàng Minh chairman Đỗ Anh Dũng from leaving the country on November 3, 2026, because a company of which he is a beneficial owner owes more than VND 312.1 billion in taxes. The company had previously faced account seizures, account freezes and a suspension of its invoice use.
Ho Chi Minh City Tax Office No. 1 issued a notice on November 3, 2026, temporarily barring Tân Hoàng Minh Group chairman Đỗ Anh Dũng from leaving the country. Public tax records show that he is a beneficial owner of Công ty TNHH Thương mại Dịch vụ Khách sạn Tân Hoàng Minh, which owes VND 312,148,786,800 in taxes, exceeding the prescribed threshold. The measure took effect on November 3, and publicly available records do not yet show an end date.

The company had previously faced tax enforcement measures several times over unpaid taxes. On October 28, 2025, Ho Chi Minh City Tax Office No. 1 ordered funds deducted from the company’s accounts and the accounts frozen. The amount subject to enforcement was nearly VND 140 billion, and the decisions remained in effect until November 26 of that year. On December 1, 2025, the tax authority also ordered the company to stop using invoices. The amount involved at that point exceeded VND 308.6 billion, and the decision remains in effect until December 1, 2026.

The company is headquartered in Ho Chi Minh City. Đỗ Anh Dũng is currently chairman of its Members’ Council; Trần Hồng Sơn has served as general director and legal representative since early 2026. In November 2016, the company had registered capital of VND 2.68 trillion, with Đỗ Anh Dũng holding a 97.2% stake. In August 2020, its registered capital rose to VND 10 trillion. Following changes to its ownership structure, his stake stood at 51.48% by May 2021, representing a capital contribution of more than VND 5.147 trillion.
The temporary exit ban comes as Tân Hoàng Minh and related companies advance the D’. Diamant Bleu project in Hanoi’s Việt Hưng urban area and study and propose investments in projects in Khánh Hòa and Lâm Đồng. The group previously proposed studying an urban development in Lâm Đồng covering more than 4,320 hectares and combining tourism with film production.
