1. Get Your Land Use Right Certificate In 2025 To Save Big: New Law Could Cost You Hundreds Of Millions VND After 2026.
-
Under the 2024 Land Law, starting January 1, 2026, Vietnam will switch to updating land price tables annually instead of every five years. These new prices will be much closer to actual market values. As a result, the costs related to issuing land use right certificates (commonly known as “red books”)—including land use fees, land lease payments, and registration fees—are expected to rise significantly. To avoid these increased costs, citizens are strongly encouraged to complete their land registration procedures in 2025. Acting early could save households hundreds of millions of VND.

In Da Nang, where land prices have been steadily rising, the new annually-updated land price framework from 2026 could significantly increase the cost of obtaining land use right certificates. Residents and investors in Da Nang who complete procedures in 2025 may avoid substantial fees and maximize their property investment value.

2. Real Estate Investors’ Reactions To Global Turbulence.
In Q1/2025, real estate investment in the Asia-Pacific region fell 33% year-on-year due to global economic volatility and geopolitical tensions. While Japan and Australia showed resilience, markets like Korea, Singapore, and Hong Kong remained weak. Emerging markets such as Vietnam, India, and Malaysia stood out with strong investment growth—Vietnam saw recovery in housing, retail, and tourism; India benefited from private equity; and Malaysia attracted major data center investments. Despite overall transaction declines, industrial and logistics assets remained in demand. Future growth may hinge on shifting supply chains driven by new U.S. tariffs, but investor caution is expected to persist.
