Regarding land price table regulations, a representative from the Land Management Department (Ministry of Agriculture and Environment) shared that in cases where localities are in the process of constructing land price tables for announcement and implementation from January 1, 2026, and are now adopting the two-level local government model, the new People’s Committee at the provincial level will continue the task of constructing land price tables.
Providing specific information, Ms. Nguyen Thi Minh Phuong, Deputy Head of the Economics and Land Fund Development Division (Land Management Department), stated that according to the provisions of Clause 1, Article 257 of the 2024 Land Law, the land price tables issued by the provincial People’s Committees in accordance with the 2013 Land Law will continue to be applied until December 31, 2025.
If necessary, the provincial People’s Committee can decide to adjust the land price tables in accordance with the 2024 Land Law to match the actual land price situation in that locality.
Ms. Phuong also shared that the land price tables constructed under the 2013 and 2024 Land Laws are established based on zones and locations.
The reorganization of administrative units and the adoption of the two-level local government model only change the names and administrative boundaries of the units but do not alter the location of the land lots. Therefore, if the land prices in a particular zone or location remain unchanged during this transition, there will be no impact on the land prices listed in the land price tables.
Additionally, according to the 2025 Law on the Promulgation of Legal Documents, in cases where “multiple administrative units are merged into a new administrative unit of the same level,” the legal documents issued by the People’s Council, People’s Committee, and Chairman of the People’s Committee of the merged administrative units will remain in effect within the scope of the new administrative unit.
This means that the land price tables of the merged provincial People’s Committees will continue to be valid within their respective administrative areas. If necessary, adjustments can be made to road and zone names, or the land price tables can be modified to align with the actual land price situation in that locality by the provincial People’s Committee within their authority and in accordance with the law.
For localities that are in the process of constructing land price tables for announcement and implementation from January 1, 2026, and are now adopting the two-level local government model, the People’s Committee of the new administrative unit will continue the task of constructing land price tables for timely announcement and implementation from January 1, 2026, in accordance with legal regulations.
Furthermore, regarding land-related administrative procedures, the Land Management Department representative emphasized the importance of localities focusing on building and perfecting the land database for operation, exploitation, and utilization. This includes handling land-related administrative procedures in an electronic environment to reduce the time required for these procedures.
