烟草在线据《越南青年报》报道编译　　越南烟草协会报告，由于每年大约有8亿包烟草被走私进入越南，越南国家财政预算每年因此而损失的税收达到4至4.2万亿越南盾（合1.89亿至1.98亿美元）。

　　10月22日，《越南青年报》引用越南烟草协会的报道说，走私烟草业给越南农民每年造成1600亿至1700亿越南盾（750万至800万美元）的损失，给越南当地烟草企业每年造成的损失达到2400亿至2500亿越南盾（1140万至1180万美元）。

　　在今年的前8个月里，越南消费的烟草超过27亿包，其中，近四分之一为非法进口产品。

　　越南烟草协会在越南中央委员会举行的一次关于走私假冒商品的会议上报告说，去年，越南人消费的烟草超过41亿包，其中有9.1亿包，即21.6%为走私产品。

　　据越南烟草协会说，越南反走私力量每年获得拨款30亿至90亿越南盾（14.2万至42.6万美元），但只有大约1%的走私烟草被发现，并依法销毁，这个比例“相当低”。

　　与此同时，越南中央委员会及市场管理部门的代表说，在与烟草走私的斗争中存在一些问题，例如像人手不足、生活在边境地区的人民对走私的危害意识低等等。

　　越南国家烟草公司董事会主席Vu Van Cuong说，越南国内烟草生产商能够制造出与外国产品一样质量的产品，但当地生产的烟草却无法在价格上与外国烟草进行竞争。

　　根据越南法律，烟草被征收65%的特殊消费税，以及10%的增值税。

Vietnam Loses $198 Mln Annually to Tobacco Smuggling

　　With around 800 million packets of tobacco smuggled into Vietnam every year, the state budget loses VND4-4.2 trillion (US$189-198 million) in taxes annually, the Vietnam Tobacco Association reported.

　　Smuggled tobacco also causes losses to Vietnamese farmers, between VND160-170 billion ($7.5-8 million) a year, and local tobacco businesses, between VND240-250 billion ($11.4-11.8 million) a year, Tuoi Tre (Youth) newspaper quoted the association as reporting on Tuesday.

　　More than 2.7 billion packages of tobacco have been consumed in Vietnam over the first eight months this year, nearly a quarter of which were imported illegally.

　　Last year Vietnamese people consumed over 4.1 billion packages, including 910 million, or 21.6 percent, that were smuggled, the association reported at the meeting held by a central committee on smuggled and faked goods.

　　Every year, anti-smuggling forces are funded with VND3-9 billion ($142,000-426,000), but only some 1 percent of smuggled tobacco is detected and destroyed in accordance with laws, which is a "very low rate," according to the association.

　　Meanwhile, the central committee and market management division representatives said that there were problems in fighting tobacco smuggling like a dearth of personnel and the low awareness of people living in border areas about the bad effects of smuggling.

　　Vu Van Cuong, chairman of the Vietnam National Tobacco Corporation, said local producers are capable of making products with the same quality as foreign ones, but locally-produced tobacco cannot compete with them in terms of prices.

　　Under Vietnamese laws, tobacco is hit with a special consumption tax of 65 percent and a value-added tax of 10 percent. Enditem
