Thanh Hoa province has code number 38.
According to the Ministry of Finance , the List of administrative units and codes of Vietnam was issued by the Prime Minister in 2004 under Decision No. 124/2004/QD-TTg dated July 8, 2004. This List is managed and updated by the Ministry of Finance (General Statistics Office) based on the Resolutions on changing administrative units of the National Assembly Standing Committee. Since its issuance, the List of administrative units and codes of Vietnam has played a good role in management, planning and statistics.
However, in the context of implementing Resolution No. 60-NQ/TW dated April 12, 2025 of the 11th Conference of the 13th Party Central Committee, Resolution No. 126/NQ-CP dated May 9, 2025 of the Government and Decision No. 759/QD-TTg dated April 14, 2025 of the Prime Minister approved the plan to rearrange administrative units at all levels, accordingly, the provincial level is reduced from 63 provinces to 34 provinces; the district and commune levels are eliminated after the rearrangement, reducing from 10,035 commune-level administrative units (7,694 communes, 1,724 wards, 617 towns) to 3,321 commune-level administrative units (2,636 communes, 672 wards and 13 special zones). The reduction rate is 66.91% (a decrease of 6,714 compared to before the arrangement).... Therefore, the List and codes of administrative units in Vietnam need to be revised to suit the actual situation.

The list and codes of commune-level administrative units (specified in Appendix II) include 3,321 commune-level administrative units coded with four digits.
Administrative units are arranged in order North - South, West - East
According to the draft, the principle of arranging administrative units when coding is that administrative units are arranged in order of North - South, West - East, taking the boundary line at the starting point and combining it with the geographical area of each level as the basis for determination. Within the country, Hanoi city is ranked first, the remaining provinces and cities are ranked according to the above principle. Within the province level, the administrative unit with the People's Committee headquarters is ranked first, the remaining administrative units are ranked in order of urban first, rural later, from North to South, from West to East.
Principles of encoding and arranging administrative units when there are changes
For provincial level: In case of province separation: The province with the People's Committee headquarters located at the old location will have the administrative unit codes at the provincial, district and commune levels unchanged. The province with the People's Committee headquarters located at the new location will be placed in the appropriate position and assigned a new code. The administrative unit codes at the district and commune levels of that province will remain unchanged.
In case of province merger: The merged province with the People's Committee headquarters located in which province will have the code of that province, the code of the remaining province will be closed and will not be reissued to other administrative units. The district and commune level codes of the merged province will not change.
For commune level: In case of commune separation: Communes with People's Committee headquarters located at the old location will have the old code. Communes with People's Committee headquarters located at the new location will be placed in the appropriate location and given a new code.
In case of merging communes: The merged commune with the People's Committee headquarters located in which commune shall have the code of that commune; the code of the remaining commune shall be closed and not reissued to other administrative units.
In case a commune-level administrative unit changes districts, the code of that commune-level administrative unit remains unchanged.
In case administrative units at all levels change their names, move from rural to urban areas or vice versa, the code will not change.
