In which cases shall certificates of house ownership be renewal in Vietnam?

The renewal of granted certificates, certificates of house ownership or certificates of ownership of construction works shall be made in the following cases:
- Land users that wish to change certificates of house ownership or certificates of ownership of construction works or certificates granted before December 10, 2009, into certificates of land use rights and ownership of houses and other land-attached assets;
- Granted certificates or certificates of house ownership or certificates of ownership of construction works are smeared, blurry, ragged or damaged;
- Consolidation and swap of land parcels, re-survey and re-measurement of areas and sizes of land parcels;
- Request for writing of full names of both husband and wife in the certificates, in case land use rights are or ownership of land-attached assets is common assets of husband and wife but the certificates only indicate the full name of either of them.
As regulations above, if you add your wife's name in the certificate of house ownership, it shall be renewed.
