The Law on Civil Judgment Enforcement No. 106/2025/QH15 will officially take effect from July 1, 2026. One of the notable highlights of the law is the provision deducting income (Article 76).
The income of the judgment debtor includes salary, wages, pensions, incapacity allowances and other legal income.
The deduction from the income of the judgment debtor is made when it falls into one of the following cases:
According to the agreement of the parties.
The judgment or decision sets a deduction from the income of the judgment debtor.
Enforcement of alimony, periodic enforcement, the amount of money to be enforced is not large or other assets of the judgment debtor are not sufficient for judgment enforcement.
When deducting, the judgment enforcement officer must leave behind the minimum living conditions guaranteed by the judgment debtor and the person being nurtured according to the provisions of law.
Agencies, organizations, employers, social insurance agencies where judgment debtors receive salaries, wages, pensions, allowances and other legal income are responsible for implementing decisions of civil judgment enforcement agencies.
Thus, the regulation that pensions are deductible income is a regulation inherited from the Law on Civil Judgment Enforcement No. 26/2008/QH12 before that. People need to pay attention to the regulations to implement.
