On the morning of September 18, 10 days after Typhoon Yagi swept through Hai Duong province, Quang Minh Aluminum Co., Ltd. in Tu Ky district was still urgently handling damage. The entire 3,000 m2 workshop of the company completely collapsed on September 7 - the day the storm made landfall in Hai Duong, crushing almost all the goods inside.

Gusts also blew away the corrugated iron roof of the office building and knocked down the solar power system and the cold storage ceiling of Thang Loi Co., Ltd. in Hai Duong city as well as causing heavy losses to its facility in Tu Ky district.

Immediately after the storm passed, the firm mobilized human resources to urgently clean up the facilities and run generators to ensure the quality of dozens of tons of goods in the cold storage.

“We suffer a preliminary loss of more than 2 billion VND, but we cannot be discouraged because there remain a lot of pending orders of foreign partners. In particular, we must ensure jobs and income of workers, who have shared joys and sorrows with us,” said director of the company Dinh Van Chuc.

As for VTC Group JSC. in Kinh Mon town, typhoon Yagi caused preliminary damage of more than 30 billion VND for the company, mainly from workshops, machines, and infrastructure.

Besides, the provincial tax sector has checked regulations on tax exemption, reduction, and extension due to the impact of natural disasters.

“Taxpayers who suffer damage caused by Typhoon Yagi should proactively prepare and submit documents to their direct tax authority for consideration and settlement according to regulations,” said Vu Doan Ngoc Hung, Deputy Director of the provincial Taxation Department.

Direct tax management teams are also ready to assist taxpayers in completing procedures for tax extension, exemption, and reduction due to storms and floods.
