      Is it possible to request a representative to lodge complaints on decision to enforce a civil judgment in Vietnam?

      I do not agree with the decision to execute the sentence, I find it very unfair. Can I make a complaint through a representative now?

      According to Article 147 of the Law on Enforcement of Civil Judgments 2008, it is stipulated:

      Complainants may lodge their complaints in any of the following forms:

      1. Sending written complaints to agencies with complaint-settling competence. Such a written complaint must clearly state the date of complaint; full name and address of the complainant; full name and address of the complained person; complaining contents, reason for complaint and request for settlement. Written complaints must be signed or fingerprinted by complainants.

      2. Orally presenting complaint contents at agencies with complaint-settling competence. Persons responsible for receiving complaints shall guide complainants in writing down their complaints or record presented complaint contents under Clause 1 of this Article, and have these documents signed or fingerprinted by complainants.

      3. Lodging complaints through their representatives. Representatives must have papers proving the legality of the representation and the lodging of complaints must strictly comply with the procedures specified in Clauses 1 and 2 of this Article.

      Based on the above regulations in Vietnam, you have right to complain through a representative. However, the representative must have documents proving legal representation. In addition, the correct procedure must be followed by sending a complaint to the competent authority according to the above regulations.
