From December 31, 2022, the paper-based household registration books will become invalid and be replaced by chip-based ID cards which are integrated with all relevant citizen information.

Local police advised citizens to promptly bring relevant documents to the police offices in their communes, wards or towns to process the chip-based ID card issuance procedures, ensuring their legitimate rights./.
