In line with the Central Steering Committee’s directives on scientific, technological development, and digital transformation, data sharing across sectors must adhere to the “single-source, shared-use” principle. Given the intrinsic link between land and housing, separate database development would lead to redundancies and inefficiencies.
During the September 24, 2025 meeting, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, Ministry of Construction, and Ministry of Public Security agreed: all legal land data, land use rights, and land-attached assets will reside exclusively within the National Land Database. The Ministry of Construction will access this data via interconnectivity rather than redundant collection.

The Ministry of Construction will leverage existing data through interconnectivity instead of duplicating efforts. Conversely, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment will access housing and real estate market data from the Ministry of Construction’s database, ensuring harmonized, mutually reinforcing datasets.
Currently, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment is collaborating with the Ministry of Public Security and local authorities on the “90-Day Data Enrichment and Cleansing Campaign for Land and Housing.” This initiative aims to finalize and launch the integrated system within 2025.
The campaign focuses on standardizing land parcel data, land-attached assets, planning information, land use plans, and land pricing. Simultaneously, it cleanses housing data, transaction records, and property ownership details.
Land policy and resource management experts assert that this unified approach eliminates data redundancies, saving trillions of dong in technology infrastructure, workforce, and operational costs. Interconnected data will also establish a foundation for transparent, precise governance, better serving citizens and businesses.
Once the land and housing databases are integrated, citizens and businesses will seamlessly access legal information, expedite land administration procedures, construction permits, and property transfers with enhanced transparency.
Government agencies will also benefit from a unified database for efficient urban planning, development, and real estate market regulation.
