According to Lao Dong, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment recently issued an official dispatch guiding the adjustment of cadastral records, land databases and synthesis of natural area data when arranging administrative units.
Accordingly, after the arrangement of administrative units, it is not mandatory to simultaneously revise the issued Land Use Rights Certificate (red book), except in cases where the land user or owner of property attached to the land has a need or performs it at the same time as administrative procedures on land.
However, when administrative procedures on land arise, land users can request competent authorities to issue corrections and updates on the information on the red book to ensure consistency and facilitate the process of land transactions and use later.
Accordingly, according to Clause 2, Article 45 of Decree 101/2024/ND-CP of the Government, the dossier that needs to be prepared when correcting address information on the red book includes:
Application for registration of changes in land and assets attached to land.
The issued certificate.
Documents related to the correction of the certificate due to the merger.
Authorization letter with notarization/ certification (if carrying out procedures through a representative).
Regarding the submission of documents, if the competent authority discovers that the issued red book has errors, it will notify and request people to return the original certificate for correction.
If people discover errors, the application will be submitted to the One-stop Department according to regulations, the Land Registration Office or the office branch. The receiving agency will issue an appointment letter and forward the file to the competent handling unit.
According to Clause 8, Clause 10, Article 22 of Decree 101/2024/ND-CP of the Government, the time to correct the issued Certificate is no more than 10 working days from the date of receipt of valid documents.
The above time does not include the time for competent authorities to determine financial obligations, the time for performing financial obligations, the time for considering and handling land cases with violations of the law, the time for requesting appraisal, publicly posting, posting information on mass media, the time for carrying out inheritance division procedures...
For communes in mountainous areas, islands, remote areas, and areas with difficult and especially difficult socio-economic conditions, an additional 10 working days will be increased.
