Some localities have successfully organized land use rights auctions, contributing to supplementing revenue for local budgets. However, some cases where the winning auction price is many times higher than the starting price (some cases are unusually high as reported by the media) are attracting great attention from public opinion, which may impact socio-economic development, the investment and business environment, and the housing and real estate market.

To improve the effectiveness and efficiency of land management, improve the real estate market, and promote socio-economic development, the Prime Minister requests:

Only case of being granted red book for household

Households are no longer granted red books for households, except for one case according to Article 4 of the 2024 Land Law.

According to Clause 25, Article 3 of the 2024 Land Law, land-using households are those who have marital, blood, or foster relationships according to the provisions of the law on marriage and family, are living together, and have joint land use rights at the time the State allocates land, leases land, recognizes land use rights, or receives land use rights transfer before the effective date of the 2024 Land Law.

Article 4 of the 2024 Land Law, households are no longer subjects of land use rights. Therefore, red books will no longer be issued to households. However, one case that is still granted a red book to households is the case where the land under the household's right of use is determined before August 1, 2024.

Accordingly, in this case, a red book will be issued with the full names of members sharing the household's land use rights. According to Article 259 of the 2024 Land Law, the household's land use rights are as follows: Participating in legal relations on land as a group of land users with the same rights and obligations as individual land users.

When land is allocated or leased to implement an approved compensation, support and resettlement plan, it is necessary to specifically record individuals who are members of a household with shared land use rights in the land allocation or land lease decision.

Households that have been allocated land by the State without land use fees or with land use fees, or leased land before August 1, 2024, may continue to use the land for the remaining land use term. When the land use term expires, it will be extended in the form of land allocation or lease to individuals who are members of that household.
