Is it permitted to pay the fine in multiple installments for the violation of riding a motorbike on the highway?

Based on the provisions at Point b Clause 6 Article 6 of Decree 100/2019/ND-CP, the act of operating a motorcycle on a highway is subject to a fine ranging from VND 2,000,000 to VND 3,000,000. Concurrently, the right to use a driver's license is suspended for a period from 03 months to 05 months per Point d Clause 10 Article 6 of this Decree.

According to the information you provided, you were fined for the aforementioned violation with a penalty of VND 2,500,000.

Regarding the issue of whether you can pay the fine in installments when you are not financially able to pay it all at once:

As per the provisions at Clause 1 Article 79 of the Law on Handling Administrative Violations 2012, the option to pay fines in installments applies when the following conditions are met:

- The fine for individuals is VND 20,000,000 or more, and for organizations, it is VND 200,000,000 or more;

- Facing significant economic hardship and having a petition to pay the fine in installments. The individual's petition must be confirmed by the Commune People's Committee where they reside or by the organization, agency where they study or work, attesting to the special economic hardship; for organizations, the petition must be confirmed by the directly managing tax authority or the superior organization or agency.

Considering the above conditions and comparing them with your case, you were only fined VND 2,500,000 and thus do not qualify for installment payments. Therefore, you are still required to pay the fine within the stipulated timeframe as stated in the penalty decision.

Respectfully!
