Administrative violations specified in this Decree, including illegal acts in construction activities; real estate business; exploitation, production and trading of construction materials; management of technical infrastructure; and management of development of houses and offices, which are committed intentionally or unintentionally but not seriously enough for penal liability examination, shall be administratively sanctioned.
Article 2. Subjects of application
1. Vietnamese individuals or organizations that commit administrative violations specified in Clause 2, Article 1 of this Decree.
2. Foreign individuals or organizations that commit administrative violations specified in Clause 2, Article 1 of this Decree within the territory of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, unless otherwise provided for by treaties to which Vietnam is a contracting party.

Past this time limit, such act will not be sanctioned but still be subject to the measures specified in Clause 3, Article 4 of this Decree.
3. Within the statute of limitations specified in Clause 2 of this Article, if administrative violators deliberately shirk or obstruct the sanctioning by competent authorities, the statute of limitations shall be re-counted from the time the violators stop their acts of shirking or obstructing the sanctioning.

b/ Forcible application of measures to remedy environmental pollution caused by acts of administrative violation;
c/ Payment of compensations for damage caused by acts of administrative violation under law.
4. Acts violating construction order shall, apart from being subject to a fine under this Decree, be handled under the Government’s Decree No. 180/2007/ND-CP of December 7, 2007, detailing and guiding the implementation of a number of articles of the Construction Law regarding the handling of violations of urban construction order (below referred to as Decree No. 180/2007/ND-CP).
