The Circular stipulates clear and specific guidelines on notarization of contracts on the transfer or donation of land use rights or the contribution of land use rights as capital (calculated based on the value of land-use rights); notarization of contracts on the sale/purchase or donation of other properties or contribution of other properties as capital (calculated based on the value of property); notarization of economic, commercial, investment and business contracts (calculated based on the value of contracts)… as follow:
