Vietnam: To distinguish between court costs and court fee in general

Hi Lawnet. I am researching about court costs and court fee in general. Please help me distinguish these two concepts? "Minh Anh - Ha Giang, Vietnam"

Thank you for your question. Lawnet would like to answer as follows:

Court costs and court fee in general are two concepts that represent expenses related to the settlement of a civil case at the Court and are specified in the Civil Procedure Code 2015 of Vietnam, Resolution 326/2016/UBTVQH 14.

Below are the differences between these 2 concepts

	Court costs	Court fees in general
Definition	Is the amount of money that the involved parties must pay when the court has settled the case with a legally effective judgment or decision	Is the amount of money that the litigant, the petitioner, must pay when asking the court to issue a document or settle a civil matter.
Liable subjects	The involved parties shall carry out the obligation to pay court fees as prescribed by the law	- The person who asks the court to settle a civil matter - Appellant in case the appeal is not accepted by the court - Wife, husband or both for the request for recognition of consent to
Fee and cost collection agencies	Civil judgment enforcement agency	- Civil judgment enforcement agency - Court - Foreign Office
