At the end of 2025, the National Assembly promulgated the Law on Civil Judgment Enforcement 2025 with a view to further improving the legal framework governing civil judgment enforcement after nearly two decades of implementation of the Law on Civil Judgment Enforcement 2008. To provide guidelines for the implementation of a number of provisions of this Law, on May 13, 2026, the Government promulgated Decree 152/2026/ND-CP (Decree 152), which is expected to take effect on July 1, 2026, concurrently with the effective date of the Law on Civil Judgment Enforcement 2025. In this Legal Newsletter, NHQuang&Associates will introduce and analyze several noteworthy new provisions of Decree 152 that may affect individuals and organizations during civil judgment enforcement process, including:
(i) Detailed regulations on the state of emergency, objective obstacles and force majeure events in civil judgment enforcement;
(ii) Application of digital transformation in civil judgment enforcement activities;
(iii) Regulation on the order for payment of judgment enforcement proceeds.
