On June 20, 2018, the Ministry of Justice issued Circular No.08/2018/TT-BTP guiding the registration, provision of information, contract and exchange of information on registration of security measures in the Center for registration of transactions and assets. This Circular took effect since August 4, 2018.

Accordingly, the Circular No.08/2018/TT-BTP provides some new highlights as follows:

  1. Types of contracts eligibled for security measures:

– The financial leasing contract in accordance with the law on financial leasing;

– Contracts for the transfer of the right to reclaim the debt, including the right to reclaim an existing debt or the right to reclaim a future debt;

– Change, correct errors, delete registration of contracts registered in the above contracts.

Cases are excluded: contracts for the purchase of civil aircraft, financial leasing contracts for aircraft, contracts for the purchase of sea-going vessels, financial leasing contracts for sea-going vessels, contracts related to rights of using land and assets attached to land.

  1. Besides, Circular No.08/2018/TT-BTP also regulates about those contracts must be registered security measures:
