Mr. N.A.P in Nghe An reflected that his parents were allocated land by the state in 1986 and were reissued pink books in 2013.
Up to now, Mr. P's family's neighbors have completed the procedures to separate the covers and transfer the land. During the measurement process, they discovered that a part of the land adjacent to the border had overlapped with Mr. P's parents' land (according to the pink book). Continuing to review, another household adjacent to the border was also overlapped similarly.
According to the local government's viewpoint, because when measuring, households had accepted to sign the documents (without signing the boundary), so now they have to accept the area as granted according to the pink book and adjust the local boundary according to the issued book.
However, the overlapping households did not agree with the above plan, proposing to review and reissue the books according to the current land use status of the households.
Mr. P asked, so what is the handling direction in accordance with current regulations?
The Ministry of Agriculture and Environment responds to this issue as follows:
The content of his reflection is a specific case under the jurisdiction of the competent land management agency based on the management records and legal regulations issued locally.
The Ministry outlines a number of relevant principles as follows:
The current procedures for granting and exchanging Certificates are carried out according to Section VII, Sub-Area C, Appendix I issued with Decree No. 151/2025/ND-CP dated June 12, 2025 of the Government regulating the determination of the authority of local authorities at 02 levels, decentralization and delegation in the land sector.
In case the land user has a basis to believe that the administrative decision or act is illegal, directly infringing on their legitimate rights and interests, the land user has the right to complain or file a lawsuit against the above-mentioned acts and decisions according to the provisions of Clause 1, Article 7 of the Law on Complaints 2011 and Clause 1, Article 237 of the 2024 Land Law.
