On August 18, 2000, the Government issued Decree No. 34/2000/ND-CP on the Regulation on the land border areas of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (hereafter called Decree No. 34/CP for short), with its Article 26 prescribing: "The Ministry of Defense shall coordinate with the concerned ministries and branches in elaborating documents guiding the implementation of this Decree".

After reaching agreement with the concerned ministries and branches, the Defense Ministry hereby provides specific implementation guidance as follows:

I. THE BORDER AREAS, BORDER BELTS AND RESTRICTED ZONES

1. Determination of the border areas, border belts and restricted zones

a/ Border areas

The land border areas defined in Clause 1, Article 2 of Decree No. 34/CP cover communes, wards and district townships with their administrative boundaries adjoining the national land borderline (hereinafter referred to as the border communes and specified in Appendix No. 1 to this Circular).

b/ Border belts

The determination of border belts shall be based on the defense, security, order and economic situation, terrain and the border management and protection requirements in each locality, for appropriate regulations.

In special cases where, due to the terrain and/or border management and protection requirements in certain areas, there must be prescriptions different from those at Point a, Clause 2, Article 2 of Decree No. 34/CP, the provincial People’s Committees shall reach agreements with the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Public Security for reporting them to the Prime Minister for decision.

c/ Restricted zones

Within the border areas or at time when it is necessary to ensure the security, defense or economic interests, necessary or vital places shall be determined as restricted zones. Restricted zones may be established inside or outside the border belt of the border areas.

Restricted zones, which are under management by particular functional branches, shall be reported by such functional branches, after reaching agreements with the provincial Border-Guard Command, the provincial Military Command and the provincial Police Directorate, to the provincial People’s Committees for subsequent submission thereof to the Government for decision.

Restricted zones shall be managed and protected according to the current law provisions as well as the management and protection regulations promulgated by the restricted zone-deciding bodies.

When a restricted zone is determined, if the inhabitants must be relocated therefrom, an advance notice must be given and the compensation therefor must be made according to the provisions of law.

d/ Basing itself on the practical situation of each locality, the Border-Guard Command shall assume the prime responsibility and coordinate with the provincial Police Directorate, the provincial Military Command, the provincial Border Committee and the functional branches in advising the provincial People’s Committee on reaching agreement with the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Public Security on determining the scope of "border belt" and/or "restricted zone", and report them to the Government.

Each decision determining a "border belt" or "restricted zone" must be made into a dossier, with maps and boundaries thereof marked by signboards put up a field.

2. The "border area", "border belt" and "restricted zone" signboards shall be made according to the uniform model, of mark-200 reinforced concrete, and put up at necessary places easy to spot. Each signboard must be inscribed with 3 lines in 3 languages: the first line is in Vietnamese, the second line in the language of the country bordering Vietnam and the third line in English. The specifications and size of signboards and types of letters to be inscribed thereon are prescribed in Appendices to this Circular (not printed herein).

3. The Border-Guard Command shall coordinate with the provincial Police Directorate, the provincial Military Command, the provincial Border Committee and other functional branches in advising the provincial People’s Committee on:

a/ Resurveying the "border belts" and "restricted zones" and the places where signboards are put up, which have already been determined according to Decree No. 427/HDBT of December 12, 1990 of the Council of Ministers promulgating the Regulation on Vietnam-Laos border areas, Decree No. 42/HDBT of January 29, 1992 of the Council of Ministers promulgating the Regulation on Vietnam-Cambodia border areas and Decree No. 99/HDBT of March 27, 1992 of the Council of Ministers promulgating the Regulation on Vietnam-China border areas. Any provisions of the above-said Decrees which are still consistent with Decree No. 34/CP and this Circular’s guidance shall be kept intact, while those which are inconsistent shall be readjusted according to Decree No. 34/CP and this Circular’s guidance.

b/ Those places, which were previously not determined as "border belts" or "restricted zones" under above-said Decrees No. 427/HDBT, 42/HDBT and 99/HDBT, shall comply with Decree No. 34/CP and this Circular’s guidance.
