The Vietnam Poultry Association asked the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry to raise tax and customs issues affecting livestock businesses with relevant agencies. It said that because commercial animal feed is exempt from VAT, domestic producers cannot recover VAT paid on inputs, adding an estimated 3–5% to locally produced feed costs and putting it at a disadvantage to imported finished feed.
If the requested tax and customs changes are implemented, domestic feed production costs and livestock operators’ expenses could ease. For now, the appeal describes an existing cost burden rather than a confirmed policy change, so there is no immediate price signal for feed ingredients.
