Of these, the first task group completed by the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment was the development of technical guidance documents on collecting, updating, revising, and supplementing land database information, unique land parcel identification codes, and implementing a two-tiered local government system.

To date, the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment has completed the development of guidance documents for localities to review and classify data into groups: Group 1: Data with existing databases and currently usable data, ensuring accuracy, completeness, cleanliness, and viability; Group 2: Data with existing databases but requiring correction, completeness, supplementation, and verification of information on land users and property owners; Group 3: Data with existing databases but unusable data requiring new data creation; and a compilation of the results of nationwide land data classification.

Documents and forms accompanying local guidelines for collecting citizen identification cards (CCCD) and various types of land and housing certificates, but which have not yet been included in the land database of land users and homeowners, have now been completed.

The Digital Transformation Department (Ministry of Agriculture and Environment), in coordination with the Department of Administrative Management of Social Order Police ( Ministry of Public Security ), has developed documents, technical guidelines, and solutions to synchronize the land database currently operating at the local level with the national land database and to connect, integrate, and synchronize with the national population database, the National Data Center, and other ministries and agencies.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, a group of ongoing tasks involves synchronizing the local land database in real time with the national land database and connecting, integrating, and synchronizing it with the national population database, the National Data Center, and throughout the entire political system. This will be done across the Government, ministries, localities, and Party organizations, the National Assembly, the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the People's Courts, the People's Procuracy, and socio-political organizations to enable immediate access to land information and data for resolving administrative procedures for citizens, organizations, and businesses. Subsequently, this synchronization will be carried out regularly in real time.

This task force is being implemented by the Digital Transformation Department, the Department of Administrative Management of Social Order and Security, and the Departments of Agriculture and Environment in the localities. Upon completion, 100% of local land parcel data will be synchronized with the central government, and the number of synchronized land parcels will be monitored in real time. In addition, the Digital Transformation Department has established working groups to visit localities to supervise, guide, and support the campaign's implementation, and has also organized online teams to promptly answer questions and provide support to localities during the implementation process.

In implementing the 90-day campaign to enrich and clean up land data, citizens cooperate in providing and verifying information, working alongside the State to build a land database to serve management and administrative reform.

Mr. Mai Van Phan, Deputy Director of the Land Management Department and Head of the Task Force implementing Plan 515/KH-BCA-BNN&MT on the campaign to enrich and clean up the national land database, stated that the campaign aims to complete the land database to be "accurate - complete - clean - vibrant - unified - shared," helping people directly benefit from administrative reform and digital transformation in the land sector.

This campaign is a concrete step in implementing Resolution No. 57-NQ/TW dated December 22, 2024, of the Politburo on breakthroughs in the development of science, technology, innovation, and national digital transformation. This is also a task concretized in Plan No. 02-KH/BCĐTW dated June 19, 2025, of the Central Steering Committee, with the requirement to put data at the center, ensuring it is "accurate - complete - clean - vibrant - unified - shared". In particular, building a national land database is a crucial foundation for all levels of government to serve the people faster and more transparently.

Furthermore, Government Resolution No. 214/NQ-CP dated July 23, 2025, sets a target that by 2026, 100% of national databases, including land databases, must be reviewed, standardized, and ensured to be connectable, shareable, and integrated to serve management, administrative procedure reform, and online public service provision.

In the context of reorganizing the two-tiered local government model, complete and accurate land data will provide local authorities with the tools to handle administrative procedures right at the commune, ward, and town levels. People will no longer have to travel frequently, and documents will be processed electronically, saving time and costs," Mr. Mai Van Phan emphasized.

Therefore, the Campaign sets out three key objectives: creating a modern data platform to serve e-government and transparent, accountable land management; improving the quality of public service delivery, making land procedures more convenient for citizens and businesses; and connecting and synchronizing land databases with other national databases, helping management agencies effectively utilize data and better serve the people.

According to Mr. Mai Van Phan, five requirements have been set forth to achieve the above objectives. Firstly, the national land database that has been built must be reviewed and perfected to be "accurate - complete - clean - vibrant - unified - shared"; ensuring uniformity, synchronization, and suitability with the two-tiered local government organizational model.

Furthermore, the national land database must be synchronized, centralized, and unified at the central level, connected and shared with the national population database, the National Data Center, and throughout the entire political system (transparently between the Government, and Party agencies, the National Assembly, the Vietnam Fatherland Front, the People's Courts, and the People's Procuracy).

Simultaneously, review and restructure administrative processes and procedures, focusing on internal procedures to reduce paper documents and reuse existing information and data in the national land database, the national population database, and other databases to handle administrative procedures related to land and assets attached to land for citizens and businesses.

Furthermore, absolute information security and cybersecurity must be ensured throughout the process of organizing, developing, completing, operating, connecting, and sharing the national land database.

Furthermore, implementation must be prioritized, decisive, scientific, high-quality, and effective, with the participation of the entire political system, at all levels and sectors from the central to the commune level, following the principles of clear responsibilities, clear tasks, clear timelines, clear results, clear accountability, and clear authority.

The goal and requirement of this campaign is to complete the national land database, ensuring it is "accurate - complete - clean - vibrant - unified - shared" to serve transparent, efficient, and accountable state management; and at the same time, to serve as a tool for agencies to handle administrative procedures related to land for citizens and businesses through a one-stop shop and integrated one-stop shop mechanism at the One-Stop Shop and the National Public Service Portal.

Therefore, collecting input information to ensure accurate, complete, and clean land data requires the participation of the entire political system and social strata; in particular, the participation of land users and owners of assets attached to the land in providing and verifying information is essential and effective in the implementation of this campaign.

Currently, the Ministry of Public Security is coordinating with the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment to develop a utility on the VneID application so that people can independently provide information and check and verify information about land and housing owners through the National Population Database via the VneID application utility without necessarily having to provide copies of their Certificates of Land Use Rights and Citizen Identity Cards.

According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, right from the preparation and issuance of Plan 515/KH-BCA-BNN&MT, the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment compiled comprehensive guidance documents and operational procedures for localities to apply and implement; while ensuring safety, security, and confidentiality of information during data collection.

Therefore, the participation and collaboration of citizens in providing, reviewing, supplementing, and verifying information alongside management agencies to "enrich and clean" data is highly commendable. This is a crucial step for the State and citizens to jointly improve the national land database, serving the implementation and resolution of administrative procedures related to land and other online public services in the electronic environment.

Mr. Mai Van Phan emphasized that the ultimate goal of the Campaign is to have "accurate - complete - clean - relevant - unified - shared" data to serve the people and businesses. Each citizen participating in providing and verifying information contributes to building a modern, transparent, and efficient land governance system.

Responding to public concerns and anxieties about being asked to photocopy or notarize their land use right certificates, Mr. Mai Van Phan affirmed that people only need to provide copies of their certificates and citizen identification cards when requested by the task force, without requiring notarization. After collecting information and creating data, land users can check and verify the information of land and housing owners through the National Population Database via the VNeID application.
