2025 Internal Control Evaluation and Internal Control Reporting for Administrative Public Institutions Launched

The Ministry of Finance (MOF) recently issued the Circular on Launching the 2025 Internal Control Evaluation and Internal Control Reporting for Administrative Public Institutions (the "Circular").

The Circular covers overall requirements, specific report preparation and submission requirements, miscellaneous matters, and appendices. Notably, the Circular sets out detailed reporting requirements for central government departments, local finance departments, and the local regulatory offices of the Ministry of Finance, with respect to the conduct of internal control evaluations and the preparation, review, and submission of internal control reports. The provisions on supporting materials, standalone software, normalized management, and summary reporting and notifications are introduced. Compared with previous years, the Circular highlights three main changes: (1) optimizing and consolidating the reporting process; (2) significantly simplifying the content of reports; and (3) effectively reducing the reporting burden on grassroots entities.
