Exchange Vietnamese Dong (VND) before travelling to Vietnam
Vietnam has become an increasingly popular destination in Southeast Asia, with long stretches of sandy beaches, bustling cities, historical landmarks, lush hillsides, peaceful mountain villages, and exceptional street food awaiting curious travellers. One of the biggest draws is how affordable everything is—from accommodation and food to transport.
The official currency of Vietnam is the Vietnamese Dong (VND), and cash is the most common method of payment. We strongly advise bringing enough cash with you. To avoid last-minute stress or poor rates, we recommend exchanging your SEK to VND in advance via our website for the best rate and 0% commission.
Tips for planning your travel budget in Vietnam
Expect to spend around 1,000,000 VND per day (roughly 426 SEK) during your trip. Even on a tighter budget, you’ll get by—especially if you share hotel rooms and opt for local street food.
While basic accommodation starts at around 260,000 VND, with a budget of 750,000 VND, you can stay in excellent hotels. Don’t forget to include day trips and excursions like the famous Halong Bay cruise in your budget.
