How to find a favorable currency exchange rate in Vietnam?

Vietnam is one of the few countries where you can exchange cash at a rate higher than the official exchange rate. Therefore, it is quite easy to find a place with a favorable rate without going around many exchange points and comparing rates.

For many years, we have been using a simple algorithm when exchanging: we find out the current exchange rate at the exchange point, and if it is higher than the official rate by at least 200-300 dong per dollar, we exchange; otherwise, we look for another place.

You can easily find out the current official rate from our updated article on Vietnam's currency, or by searching in Google or Yandex with queries like "USD VND exchange rate"; search engines immediately display it:

Another option, even more convenient than search engines, is to install a currency converter calculator app. These calculators also display the current official rate.
