The Ministry of Finance is drafting a Circular on nationality fee exemption and resident fee exemption for residents in line with the regulations of the Agreement between the Governments of Viet Nam and Laos on dealing with free migration issues and unregistered marriages in border areas.

The Draft stipulates that the fee exemption will be given to those people whose residence are allowed  by the Vietnamese functional agencies and free immigrants within the borders of Viet Nam or Laos before 1985.

Free immigrants within the border areas of Viet Nam or Laos from 1986 to July 8, 2013 meet requirements, including respecting the laws of the country of residence and not violating the criminal laws, stabilizing their lives at the country of residence with sustainable assets of houses and land and not being wanted or serving the sentences under their original country's law.

The Circular is not applied to free immigrants after July 8, 2013.
