Land valuation methods must be feasible, scientific , transparent, ensuring fair benefits among people, businesses, and the State, the Deputy Prime Minister requested.
Chairing the meeting on the afternoon of October 30, Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha emphasized that all obstacles to using land resources for economic development, even violating the law, are mainly due to land valuation. Therefore, the draft Decree on land valuation needs to be "close, accurate, correct, and suitable to reality". "Do not push difficult matters down to the locality", he said.
The Deputy Prime Minister requested the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to ensure the accuracy and consistency of calculation formulas. The Ministry revised the conditions for applying the comparison method and supplemented information, data, and land valuation indexes from official sources. At the same time, the Ministry quantified project development costs and the responsibilities of each agency and unit in the process of determining, appraising, and approving land prices.
Regarding the local proposal on land allocation and land use fee collection according to investment phases, the Deputy Prime Minister stated that competent State agencies must determine this when approving projects as a basis for implementation. Localities should urgently study the plan to determine coefficients and sub-indices to be applied in combination with the land price adjustment coefficient of land plots priced under VND30 billion (for centrally-run cities); VND10 billion (for mountainous provinces); VND20 billion (remaining localities).
"The Decree will be implemented locally, so we must give frank comments and point out problems so that the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment can promptly absorb them and make them practical. This is the responsibility and right of the localities," said the Deputy Prime Minister.

At the meeting, Director of the Department of Planning and Land Resources Development Dao Trung Chinh said that after receiving instructions from the Government leaders and units, the drafting agency has completed the concept, order, content, and method of determining land prices. The conditions for applying each method of land valuation were also clarified. Accordingly, there are four methods of determining land prices including: Comparison, income, surplus, and land price adjustment coefficient.
The drafting agency also added detailed regulations on factors affecting land prices to ensure transparency and avoid price appraisers imposing their subjective will.
Vice Chairman of Binh Duong Provincial People's Committee Mai Hung Dung suggested clarifying the responsibilities of individuals and organizations in each stage of land valuation. "Localities should be allowed to decide on specific land prices more flexibly than the initial valuation results to attract investors," Mr. Dung suggested.
Vice Chairman of Hoa Binh Provincial People's Committee Quach Tat Liem proposed to have an independent appraisal agency for the development costs of investors in projects applying the surplus method.
Under current regulations, land prices are determined by one of five methods, such as direct comparison, deduction, income, surplus, and land price adjustment coefficient. The new draft Decree removes the deduction method.
The draft revised Land Law will be considered and approved by the National Assembly at its ongoing 6th session.
