Transferring the name on the Land Use Right Certificate (“Sổ đỏ”) is a required procedure when transferring or gifting land and property. The transfer or gifting of land and property only takes effect once the change is registered and recorded by the land registration authority in the cadastral records.

1. What is the Transfer of “Sổ đỏ”?

“Transfer of Sổ đỏ” is a common term used by the public to refer to the procedure of registering changes when transferring, gifting, or inheriting land use rights (land only), or land use rights together with other attached assets such as houses or constructions.Procedures for transferring land use rights when transferring in the US (2)

According to Clause 2, Article 133 of the 2024 Land Law, when transferring the “Sổ đỏ,” the recipient of the transfer or gift will have their ownership confirmed by the competent authority either by an endorsement on the already issued Certificate or by issuing a new Certificate. Specifically:

  • New Certificate issuance: The recipient will be issued a new Certificate in their name but must pay additional fees for the new Certificate issuance.

  • Endorsement on existing Certificate: The transfer or gift information will be recorded on pages 3 and 4 of the existing Certificate. In this case, the recipient does not pay extra fees for a new Certificate but retains full rights in transactions.

2. Transfer of “Sổ đỏ” is a Mandatory Procedure

The transfer is mandatory for state management, clearly regulated in Clause 3, Article 133 of the 2024 Land Law as follows:

For cases involving registration of changes listed in points a, b, i, k, l, m, and q of Clause 1 of this Article, the land user must register the change at the competent authority within 30 days from the date of the event.

Thus, within 30 days from the occurrence of the change (meaning within 30 days of notarization or authentication), citizens must register the change at the authorized land registration office.

Failure to comply with this mandatory registration is subject to administrative penalties (detailed in Section 7).

3. Deadline for Registering the Transfer

Clause 3, Article 133 of the 2024 Land Law states:

For cases of registration of changes as listed in points a, b, i, k, l, m, and q Clause 1, the land user must register within 30 days from the date of the change; for enforcement cases, the 30-day period begins from the date of asset handover; for inheritance, the deadline starts from the date of inheritance division according to civil law or from the effective date of the court judgment or decision.

Therefore, citizens must complete the transfer registration within 30 days from notarization or authentication of the transfer or gift contract; otherwise, administrative sanctions will apply.
