Thereby, the People's Committees of these 102 communes and wards can proactively consider and decide on other measures and support levels for people whose land is recovered according to the authority prescribed in Clause 1, Article 10 of Decree No. 151/2025/ND-CP dated June 12, 2025 of the Government .

The implementation period is from the date of approval by the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee until December 31, 2025 to ensure consistent and synchronous implementation in accordance with the provisions of the 2024 Land Law, and on schedule for disbursement as directed by the City People's Committee.

The Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee also requested relevant units to proactively review and determine specific levels of support for each target group and each project, in accordance with actual conditions in the area. The implementation of support policies must strictly comply with legal regulations, while ensuring the principles of fairness, transparency and flexibility so that people can soon stabilize their lives after handing over the land.

In case households and individuals are using land that violated land laws before July 1, 2014, but have used the land stably and are not eligible for consideration for granting certificates of land use rights and ownership of assets attached to land, they will be supported with 70% of the specific land price for cases of use for non-agricultural purposes before October 15, 1993; supported with 56% of the specific land price for cases of use for non-agricultural purposes from October 15, 1993 to before July 1, 2004; supported with 42% of the land price for cases of use for non-agricultural purposes from July 1, 2004 to before July 1, 2024.

In addition, Decision 5516/QD-UBND also stipulates support of 15 million VND/household for people with meritorious services to the revolution whose land is recovered and who have to relocate; support of 10 million VND/household for relatives of people with meritorious services. In case there are many beneficiaries in a household, only one level of support will be calculated for the beneficiary with the highest level of support.
