Pursuant to Clause 1, Article 5 of the 2024 Land Law, using land for the right purpose of land use is one of the principles of land use.
Agricultural land is used for cultivation, animal husbandry, greenhouse construction to breed crops, research... to serve agricultural production. Therefore, it is impossible to build a house on agricultural land in a residential area if the purpose of using agricultural land has not been converted to residential land.
Accordingly, after changing the purpose of land use to residential land, the land user applies for a house construction permit at the People's Committee at the district level.
According to Article 46 of Decree 15/2021/ND-CP, the components of the application for a construction permit include:
- Application for construction permit.
- One of the documents proving land use rights according to the provisions of the land law.
- 2 sets of construction design drawings accompanied by a fire prevention and fighting design approval certificate accompanied by an approval drawing in case the law on fire prevention and fighting requires it; report the results of the construction design examination in case the construction law requires it, including:
+ drawings of the construction site on the land plot with a diagram of the construction site;
+ drawings of the floor plan, vertical sides and main cross-sections of the construction works;
+ drawings of foundation and foundation cutting surfaces with a diagram of the connection of the technical infrastructure system outside the project including water supply, drainage, power supply;
+ In case there is an adjacent project, there must be a commitment to ensure the safety of that adjacent project.
