From April 7 to June 30, many fees in the transport sector such as aviation, maritime, and rail will be waived to support producers and businesses facing fuel-cost pressures. The Ministry of Finance issued Circular No. 40/2026/TT-BTC dated April 6, 2026, deciding to waive certain fees and charges to support production and business activities in the transport sector. This move comes as the conflict in the Middle East is affecting fuel prices, directly increasing transport costs, logistics costs, and pushing up the price of goods. From April 7 to June 30, many fees will be waived completely, including: In aviation, waivers of fees and charges (except inspection fees for entry into restricted areas at airports); in maritime and inland waterways, waivers for ships entering maritime areas and vehicles operating between domestic ports and inland waterway facilities in Vietnam; in rail, waivers for using the railway infrastructure financed by the State. This policy is expected to timely support people and businesses during difficult times and to promote green transport, contributing to the goal of 10% average annual growth in 2026-2030. Alongside cost-stability efforts, the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam is vigorously promoting energy efficiency and green transformation across the industry. Airports and airlines are instructed to actively plan to convert ground vehicles to electricity and green fuels. The transition roadmap is laid out stage by stage: Stage 2027-2030 begins studying substitute fuels and building a database on fuel consumption for airlines; in 2035, at least 10% sustainable fuel must be used for some short-haul flights; all passenger vehicles and new ground-service equipment at airports must run on electricity or green energy. By 2040, 100% of ground-operating vehicles in airport precincts run on green energy (except some specialized vehicles). By 2050, complete transition to green energy and sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) for aircraft. Remaining emissions will be offset through carbon offset measures to officially reach net-zero."
