locality's authority when adjusting price lists after abolishing land price framework

Phan Anh |

From August 15, 2025, Decree 226/2025/ND-CP officially took effect, marking an important shift in land management when the land price framework was completely abolished.

According to Article 9 of Decree 226/2025/ND-CP: This Decree takes effect from August 15, 2025. From the effective date of this Decree, Decree No. 96/2019/ND-CP dated December 19, 2019 of the Government regulating the land price framework will expire".

Previously, according to Decree 96/2019/ND-CP, the provincial People's Committee had the right to adjust the land price list within a certain scope. Article 18 of Decree 96/2019/ND-CP states: "The provincial People's Committee is allowed to adjust the land price list to increase or decrease but not exceeding 20% compared to the maximum price and minimum price of each type of land in the land price framework prescribed by the Government".

Thus, when Decree 226/2025/ND-CP takes effect, the land price framework no longer exists. Instead, the issuance of the land price list will be implemented according to the provisions of the 2024 Land Law.

This means that from now on, the land price bracket is no longer a mandatory legal basis for provinces and cities to rely on when promulgating land price list. This is a big change compared to before, when the provincial People's Committee is only allowed to adjust the land price list in the amplitude of ± 20% compared to the price bracket prescribed by the Government.

According to the new regulations, the determination and issuance of land price lists have shifted strongly towards the locality. Article 160 of the 2024 Land Law states: "The provincial People's Committee adjusts and amends the land price list when common land prices in the market fluctuate, ensuring compliance with the principles and methods of land valuation and within the framework of current laws".

The 2024 Land Law and Decree 226/2025/ND-CP give the People's Committees at the provincial level the authority to issue land price lists based on the principles and methods of valuation stipulated in the law.

Thus, instead of being "locked" in the national price framework, localities have the right to be more proactive in reflecting land prices close to market prices, ensuring compliance with the socio-economic development practices in the area.

This adjustment ensures that the land price list in each locality is built on a specific database, strict process and publicly announced annually, creating unity in land management.
