Việt Nam is projected to import an additional 6 million tonnes of corn and 1.7 million tonnes of soybean meal by 2034, representing 7 per cent of global corn imports and 9 per cent of global soybean meal imports.
The Government''s Decree 144/2024/NĐ-CP setting a preferential import tax rate for soybean meal (commodity code 23040090) has reduced this tax from 2 per cent to 1 per cent, creating better conditions for the enterprises to maintain production.
In response to the proposal, Deputy Prime Minister Le Minh Khai instructed the Ministry of Finance to work with relevant ministries and branches to study and consider the association''s recommendations and submit them for consideration and decision following the law.
