Rectify and overcome the abuse of issuing Criminal Record Certificates
(Baonghean.vn) - Some organizations, businesses, and individuals abuse the requirement to provide a Criminal Record in recruitment, management, and employment... and have not proactively exercised the right to request a Criminal Record as prescribed.

On September 22, 2023, Nghe An Department of Justice issued Official Dispatch No. 1795/STP-VP on the proper implementation of the law on issuing Judicial Records.
Specifically: Recently, in Nghe An province, the number of people requesting a Criminal Record Certificate has increased, putting pressure on state agencies and wasting people's time and money. One of the reasons is that some organizations, businesses and individuals have abused the request for a Criminal Record Certificate in recruitment, management and employment, etc., and have not proactively exercised their right to request a Criminal Record Certificate as prescribed.
In order to promptly rectify and overcome the above situation, create convenience, reduce time and social costs for people, the Department of Justice requests Directors of Departments; Heads of Provincial Departments, branches, and organizations; People's Committees of districts, cities, and towns; political organizations, socio-political organizations, and associations:
- Correctly exercise the right to request a Criminal Record Certificate as prescribed in Clause 3, Article 7 of the Law on Criminal Records. End the situation of requiring people to submit a Criminal Record Certificate that is not in the cases prescribed by law.
- Along with that, increase information and propaganda widely in agencies, units and people to raise understanding and awareness, thereby properly implementing legal regulations on requirements for issuing Judicial Records.
