Buying your Vietnamese Dong in advance is strongly recommended. Vietnam remains a predominantly cash based society and having VND ready before you arrive is not just convenient, it is essential. Street food, local markets, motorbike taxis, smaller guesthouses, temple entrance fees and the vast majority of everyday transactions throughout Vietnam are conducted in cash. Airport bureaux de change and hotel exchange desks consistently offer poor rates compared to specialist providers, while ATMs in Vietnam can be unreliable, charge high withdrawal fees and have low withdrawal limits. Buying your Vietnamese Dong before you fly gives you the chance to secure a competitive rate and arrive fully prepared without any currency related stress.
Cash remains useful for:
The Vietnamese Dong (currency code: VND, symbol: ₫) is the official currency of Vietnam, issued and managed by the State Bank of Vietnam. The Dong is one of the lowest valued currency units in the world due to its large denominations, which can take some adjustment for first time visitors. The VND operates under a managed exchange rate system, meaning its value is guided within a controlled band set by the State Bank rather than being freely determined by market forces alone. Banknotes are issued in denominations of 1000, 2000, 5000, 10000, 20000, 50000, 100000, 200000 and 500000 VND. Coins are rarely used in everyday transactions. For most everyday spending, 50000, 100000 and 200000 VND notes are the most practical and widely used throughout the country.
