Provisions on Official Units of Measurement

____________________

 

THE GOVERNMENT

Pursuant to the Law on Organization of the Government dated December 25, 2001;

Based on the Ordinance on Measurement dated October 6, 1999.

Considering the proposal of the Minister of Science and Technology,

 

DECREE

 

PART I

GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

Article 1.  Scope of Regulation

This Decree stipulates the official units of measurement of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

Article 2. Interpretation of Terms

In this Decree, the following terms are understood as follows:

1. The SI system is the international system of units (in French: Système International d'Unités; in English: The International System of Units).

2. Official units of measurement are the units of measurement prescribed in Article 7 and Article 8 of this Decree.

3. Other commonly used units of measurement are those units of measurement not prescribed in Clause 2 of this Article, including traditional Vietnamese units of measurement and other units of measurement.

Article 3. Principles for Using Units of Measurement

1. Official units of measurement must be used compulsorily in the following cases:

a) In documents issued by state agencies, except where international treaties prescribed in Article 5 of this Decree apply;

b) On measuring instruments used in inspection, supervision activities and other public service activities of state agencies;

c) On prepackaged goods labels according to quantities subject to inspection as prescribed by the Ordinance on Measurement;

d) In production, business, and importation of measuring instruments subject to verification as prescribed by the Ordinance on Measurement.

2. Other commonly used units of measurement may be used in civil relations except in the cases prescribed in Clause 1 of this Article.

Conversion from other commonly used units of measurement to official units of measurement shall be carried out in accordance with the provisions of Article 4 of this Decree.

3. The State encourages organizations and individuals to use official units of measurement as prescribed in this Decree.

Article 4. Principles and Conversion Values of Other Commonly Used Units of Measurement to Official Units of Measurement

1. Conversion does not change the value of the measured quantity.

2. Conversion values of some other commonly used units of measurement to official units of measurement are prescribed in Appendix I attached to this Decree.

In cases where conversion values of other commonly used units of measurement to official units of measurement have not been prescribed in Appendix I of this Decree, conversion values of traditional Vietnamese units of measurement shall be taken from the Vietnamese Encyclopedia, and conversion values of other units of measurement shall be taken from "The International System of Units (SI)" - Eighth Edition; 2006, published by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM).

3. When presenting the value of a measured quantity, the numerical indication and official unit of measurement must be presented first, followed by the numerical indication and other commonly used unit of measurement enclosed in parentheses.

Example: When expressing the weight of one (01) tael of gold, it should be presented as follows: 37.5 g (1 tael).

Article 5. Application of International Treaties

Where an international treaty to which the Socialist Republic of Vietnam is a party prescribes different units of measurement from those prescribed in this Decree, the provisions of that international treaty shall apply.

Article 6. Presentation of Official Units of Measurement

The presentation of measurement results and expression of the value of a measured quantity according to official units of measurement must comply with the provisions set forth in Appendix II attached to this Decree.

c) To establish one (01) multiple or submultiple of an official unit of measurement belonging to the SI system, only a single SI prefix may be used in combination with this unit of measurement.

Example: nanometer: 1 nm or 10-9 m (not written: millimicro-meter: mmm).

In which: nano is the name; n is the symbol and 10-9 is the factor of this prefix.

Note: This rule does not apply when combined with the basic unit kilogram. For historical reasons, kilogram contains a prefix of kilo from gram. The multiples or submultiples of kilogram are formed based on the combination with the SI prefix of gram.

Article 8. Official Measurement Units Outside the SI System

Official measurement units outside the SI system include:
