Procedures for making red books on land purchased from the commune in 1995, houses have been built on half a piece of land

Citizens have just sent questions to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment about procedures for issuing red books for the first time in the case of buying land from the commune in 1995, having built houses on more than half of the land.

On the Government Information Portal, Ms. T.T.T in Hung Yen reflected that in 1995, the Commune People's Committee illegally sold a 574 m2 land plot, with a land allocation record and receipt (she had completed her financial obligations). Currently, Ms. T has built a house on half of the land.

Ms. T asked if she was granted the entire area of 574 m2 as residential land and whether she had to pay money or not?

The Ministry of Agriculture and Environment answers this question as follows:

Because the content of her reflection is a specific case under the jurisdiction of the locality, based on management records and guiding documents for the implementation of the Land Law that have been promulgated, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment has no basis to answer in detail.

The Ministry would like to mention a number of regulations on principles as follows:

According to the provisions of the 1995 land law, the commune-level People's Committee has no authority to allocate or sell land to households or individuals for use.

Therefore, the fact that land users have origins sold by commune-level People's Committees is a case of land use due to being allocated beyond authority.

The issuance of certificates of land use rights and ownership of assets attached to land for the content as reflected is carried out according to the provisions of Article 140 of the 2024 Land Law.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Environment would like to provide information on some regulations for you to know, study and implement according to the provisions of law.
