In 2021, if you don't use Vietnamese in a postal service contract, you may be fined up to VND 7,000,000
Please ask, the preparation of the contract for provision of postal services in writing but not using Vietnamese in the contract, can it be sanctioned? Please advice.
Pursuant to Clause 3, Article 7 of Decree 15/2020/ND-CP, there are provisions on sanctions for violations against regulations on postal service contracts in Vietnam as follows:
3. A fine ranging from VND 5,000,000 to VND 7,000,000 shall be imposed for the commission of one of the following violations:
a) Failing to properly and sufficiently specify all contents as required by law in the contract for provision of postal services or written certification of acceptance of postal items;
b) Failing to use Vietnamese language in the contract for provision of postal services;
c) Failing to enter into an agency contract or using an expired agency contract when employing or acting as a postal service agency.
Best Regards!
