The 2023 Identity Card Law officially came into effect on July 1, 2024.

This law comprises 7 chapters and 46 articles, regulating the National Population Database, the Identity Card Database; identity cards, electronic identity cards; identity card certificates; the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of relevant agencies, organizations, and individuals, and has many new points compared to the 2014 Citizen Identity Card Law.

According to an investigation by Lao Dong newspaper on March 24, 2024, the Ministry of Justice has just released the appraisal dossier for the draft Decree detailing some provisions and measures for implementing the Law on Identity Cards. The Ministry of Public Security is the lead agency in drafting this Decree.

According to the Ministry of Public Security 's submission, the draft Decree consists of 60 chapters and 40 articles. Of these, the collection, updating, adjustment, connection, sharing, and exploitation of information in the National Identity Database comprises 5 articles (from Article 14 to Article 18).

Article 14 of the draft Decree stipulates the collection, updating, and correction of information in the National Identity Database.

Accordingly, personal identification information, including biometric data such as facial images, fingerprints, and irises, is collected and updated when processing the issuance, renewal, and re-issuance of identity cards for citizens.

Before collecting and updating biometric information on DNA and voice into the National Identity Database, the National Identity Database management agency is responsible for coordinating with the agency or organization that has tested and analyzed the citizen's biometric information on DNA and voice to verify, compare, and authenticate the information to ensure its accuracy.

Occupational information is collected, updated, and adjusted through connecting and sharing information with national databases, other specialized databases, or provided by citizens during the process of issuing, renewing, or reissuing identity cards.

Citizen information is only collected and updated in the National Identity Database after verification that the information is accurate. If a citizen discovers that the information in the National Identity Database is inaccurate, they have the right to request the national identity management agency to update and correct it.

Regarding the responsibility for collecting, updating, and correcting citizen information in the identity database, this is stipulated in Article 15 of the draft decree.

Accordingly, the identity card management agency is responsible for collecting, updating, and correcting citizen information in the identity card database through the issuance, renewal, and re-issuance of identity cards.

When issuing, renewing, or reissuing identity cards, if a citizen does not have information or the information is inaccurate, the identity card management agency is responsible for guiding the citizen to collect, update, and correct information in the National Population Database as prescribed in Article 7 of this Decree before issuing, renewing, or reissuing the identity card.

The identity management agency is responsible for coordinating with relevant agencies, organizations, and individuals to verify information when collecting, updating, and adjusting information in the identity database to ensure accuracy and consistency.
