According to the State Treasury, the regulation on management and payment for projects using public investment capital through the State Treasury system shall comply with Clause 1, Article 1 of Decree 99/2021/ND-CP of the Government on management, payment and settlement for projects using public investment capital (except for secret public investment projects) and works which are repaired, maintained, renovated, upgraded and expanded with costs of VND500 million or more according to Clause 6, Article 7 of Decree 11/2020/ND-CP dated January 20, 2020 of the Government on procedures in the field of State Treasury.

The scope of application will be the State Treasury of the provinces and centrally-run cities; Transaction Offices of State Treasury, State Treasury of districts, towns, provincial cities and centrally-run cities and civil servants in charge of procedures of management and payment of projects using public investment capital through the State Treasury system.

In particular, the State Treasury agency shall carry out payment procedures immediately after receiving complete and valid applications as prescribed in Decree 99/2021/ND-CP.

In case the disbursed capital has not reached 80% of the contract value but the investor requests the final payment, the State Treasury shall implement “management before payment".

The "management before payment" of public investment capital is a form of payment control applicable to expenditures without contracts and a final payment of contracts or other expenditures under contracts with a payment value greater than 80% of the contract value until the end of the contract.
