The 2024 Land Law does not have specific regulations on land survey costs. However, it can be understood that the cost of cadastral measurement (land measurement fee) is the amount of money that individuals, organizations... must pay to the cadastral measurement unit when conducting a land re-measurement and re-determining the boundary between adjacent plots of land.
Each locality will regulate different measurement service price lists, the Provincial People's Council will, based on local socio-economic conditions, regulate appropriate fee and charge levels. When regulating cadastral survey fees, the Provincial People's Council needs to ensure that the survey fee is suitable for the socio-economic conditions of their locality.
Land survey fees are built on the basis of:
Minimum salary in region x Coefficient of adjustment of labor/ machinery x Number of days implemented according to the norms
As stated above, the cost of cadastral measurement will be issued by the Provincial People's Council, so each locality will stipulate different fees.
For example, in Hanoi, according to Decision 1358/QD-UBND of the Hanoi People's Committee on the Hanoi Land Measurement Product Unit Price List, it is stipulated as follows: The application of product unit prices for tasks, projects... using the state budget must be based on the type of implementing unit to apply appropriately. Specifically:
- Enterprises and public service units self-insure all investment and regular expenditures: The product price column with full price components is applied.
- When providing public service services using the state budget (except for public service units that self-insure all investment and regular expenditures), the price calculation roadmap is as follows:
From 2020 onwards: The unit price column is applied to calculate full salary costs, direct costs, management costs and fixed asset depreciation costs.
In case the public service unit is partly guaranteed by the state budget for regular expenditures or the state budget guarantees all regular expenditures when providing public service services paid from the state budget in the field of measurement; registration, declaration of issuance of certificates of land use rights, assets attached to land... then the cost that has been supported by the state budget must be deducted.
For labor costs and depreciation costs if the detailed time and structure for implementation cannot be separated between tasks, the deduction of labor costs (or depreciation costs) is determined according to the allocation and proportion method as follows:
The proportion of the state budget supporting labor costs (or depreciation) for the unit T (%) = Salary and contributions according to salary (or depreciation) supported by the state budget/Tous salary fund of the assigned payroll (or total depreciation value in the year of the unit).
For public units that self-insure investment and regular expenditures: The product price column with full price components is applied.
