In Vietnam, maintenance obligations for rental properties are divided between landlords and tenants under the Civil Code 2015 and the Housing Law 2023. Understanding each party's responsibilities helps prevent disputes and maintain the property's value.
Division of Responsibilities
Landlord Obligations
Major Repairs
Landlords are responsible for all repairs related to:
- Load-bearing structures (walls, columns, beams, floors)
- Main electrical systems
- Main water supply and drainage
- Roofing and waterproofing
- Natural wear and tear of originally provided equipment
Delivery in Proper Condition
Under Article 473 of the Civil Code 2015, landlords must:
- Deliver the property in a usable condition as agreed
- Ensure that basic systems are functioning properly
- Not interfere with the tenant's lawful use of the property
Fire Safety (Housing Law 2023)
Especially for mini-apartments:
- Install fire safety equipment
- Ensure emergency exits meet standards
- Conduct periodic safety inspections
Tenant Obligations
Property Preservation
- Use the property for its designated purpose
- Maintain cleanliness and order
- Notify the landlord promptly when damage is discovered
- Do not make repairs or modifications without landlord consent
Damage Compensation
Tenants must compensate the landlord if they:
- Cause damage beyond normal wear and tear
- Misuse the property resulting in damage
- Fail to report issues in a timely manner, causing further damage
Repair Request Process
- Tenant notifies — In writing or by message (retain evidence)
- Landlord inspects — Assesses the actual condition

Best Practices for Landlords
