In response to this query, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment clarified that in cases of land registration, transfer, and mutation procedures involving changes to the address of the land lot, if the applicant wishes to carry out multiple procedures simultaneously, the responsible authorities are obliged to coordinate with the competent authorities to resolve the matter. This eliminates the need for applicants to go through each procedure individually.
Specifically, in a recent official dispatch to the People’s Committees of provinces and centrally-run cities, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment emphasized that the rectification of land records, including cadastral maps, land registers, land books, and land-use right certificates, must be carried out simultaneously with the updating and rectification of local land data infrastructure.

Do citizens need to re-do their land-use right certificates after provincial mergers?
Land records and land data infrastructure that are currently being managed, archived, and operated will continue to be utilized to provide services to citizens and businesses.
The rectification of land records and land data due to administrative rearrangement must be carried out simultaneously with the resolution of administrative procedures related to land and assets attached to land. This ensures a smooth and unhindered process for citizens and businesses.
Notably, the official dispatch states that after administrative rearrangement, there is no mandatory requirement to simultaneously rectify previously issued certificates, unless there is a request from the land user or owner of assets attached to the land, or if it is carried out simultaneously with administrative procedures related to land.
The rectification of changes to land lot information (sheet number, lot number, address) on previously issued certificates shall be carried out in accordance with Clause 5, Article 41 of Circular No. 10/2024.
Specifically, Clause 5 stipulates that information about the address of assets attached to the land shall be presented as follows: the name of the work or name of the building (if any); house number, apartment number, alley, lane, street name (if any), name of the residential area, name of administrative units at the commune, district, and provincial levels.
The official dispatch clearly states that in cases where there is no blank line left on the issued certificate to confirm changes, a new certificate shall be issued to reflect the information of the land lot in accordance with Clause 6, Article 23 of Decree No. 101/2024.
Clause 6 stipulates the cases of registration of mutations of land-use rights and ownership of assets attached to land where there is no blank line left on the issued certificate to confirm changes, or where the land user or owner of assets attached to the land requests for a new certificate of land-use right and ownership of assets attached to land.
The text also states that the dossiers for the issuance of land-use right certificates, which were established by the district-level land management function, shall be handed over to the branch of the Land Registration Office immediately after the administrative rearrangement for archiving purposes.
As for the electronic land records that are being archived and operated within the land data infrastructure, the authorities shall continue to exploit and manage them to provide services to citizens and businesses in accordance with current regulations.
