Is it necessary to post for 15 days when issuing the red book for the first time?

Reply: Pursuant to Section d, Point 1, Clause II, Section C, Part V, Appendix I of Decree 151/2025/ND-CP, it is stipulated as follows:

II. Procedures for first-time registration of land and assets attached to land for individuals, communities, and households using land

[...]

3. The People's Committee at the commune level organizes the implementation of the following tasks:

c) In case the land user or owner of property attached to land needs to certify the ownership of a house or construction work that is subject to a construction permit as prescribed in Clause 3, Article 148; Clause 3, Article 149 of the Land Law without a certificate from the competent authority for construction management at the district level before July 1, 2025 on the eligibility of the house or construction work to exist according to the provisions of the law on construction, the determination of eligibility of the house or construction work to exist shall not be carried out. The owner of the work shall be responsible for the eligibility of the house or construction work to exist.

d) Publicly post the confirmation contents according to Form No. 17 issued with this Decree at the headquarters of the People's Committee at the commune level and residential areas where the land and assets attached to the land are located for 15 days, and at the same time consider and resolve comments on the publicly posted contents (if any).

During this time, the People's Committee of the commune is also responsible for receiving, reviewing and resolving any feedback (if any).
