The budget sets total revenue at more than 3.334 quadrillion VND and total expenditure at almost 4.074 quadrillion VND. This creates a deficit of 739.597 trillion VND, equal to about 4.5 % of the country’s GDP.

Salary‑reform reserves will pay salary and allowance adjustments, pensions, social‑insurance benefits, preferential policies for meritorious service and staff streamlining. Central‑budget reserves can now be used for these, and local funds may also support centrally issued welfare policies.

The government also pledged to strengthen measures that prevent revenue losses, combat tax evasion and expand tax bases. New sources will include e‑commerce, digital platforms and mineral extraction, which could affect the taxes you pay.

Public‑investment spending will be cut by 5 % and recurrent expenditure, except salaries, will be reduced by 10 %. The saved resources are intended to fund key projects and increase spending on social‑welfare programmes.

In summary, the 2027 budget redirects salary‑reform reserves to social benefits, tightens tax collection and trims certain public‑spending lines. These steps are likely to influence your future paycheck, tax obligations and the availability of public services.
