Vietnam: Determination of costs of formulation of planning projects

According to regulations, contents of planning projects shall be regulated in Decrees elaborating on several details about construction planning, Decrees on formulation, evaluation, approval and management of urban development plans, and other relevant specialized Decrees as well as instructional documents thereof.

Specifically, according to Article 6 of Circular No. 20/2019/TT-BXD of the Ministry of Construction of Vietnam, determination of costs of formulation and evaluation of planning projects is as follows:

- Costs of formulation of a district or inter-district construction planning project are calculated on the basis of the land and population size of a target area and norms of costs specified in Table No. 1 - Appendix No. 1.

- Costs of formulation of an urban master planning project are calculated on the basis of land size, urban type and population density of the target area according to norms of costs shown in Table No. 2 – Appendix No. 1.

- Costs of formulation of an urban zoning project are calculated on the basis of land size and norms of costs shown in Table No. 3 – Appendix No. 1.

- Costs of formulation of an urban detailed planning project are calculated on the basis of land size and norms of costs shown in Table No. 4 – Appendix No. 1.

- Costs of formulation of a particular urban design project are equal to estimated costs, but not 1.5 times greater than costs falling within the norms of costs of the 1/500-scale detailed urban planning scheme which has land size similar to the land size of an urban design scheme.

- Costs of formulation of a technical infrastructure specialized planning project of a centrally-affiliated city are estimated and distributed into specific works, but do not exceed ratios (%) of costs specified in Table No. 5 – Appendix No. 1 to costs of formulation of the respective urban master planning project.

- Costs of formulation of a zoning project for construction of functional zones are calculated on the basis of land size and norms of costs shown in Table No. 7 – Appendix No. 1.

- Costs of formulation of a detailed planning project for construction of functional zones are calculated on the basis of land size and norms of costs shown in Table No. 8 – Appendix No. 1.k) Costs of formulation of a master planning project for construction of communes are calculated on the basis of the population size projected according to the planning term specified in the approved planning project (exclusive of visionary population projection) and norms of costs shown in Table No. 9 – Appendix No. 1.
