How to top up a SIM card balance in Vietnam?

You can top up the balance of a local SIM card in Vietnam in several ways if you have exhausted your limits or want to extend your tariff:

• With cash at telecom shops or supermarkets (e.g., 7-eleven), but a small commission may be charged (e.g., for 100,000 dong, they might ask for 105,000).
• Using scratch cards: buy a card with a denomination of 10,000–100,000 dong, scratch off the protective layer, and enter the USSD code on your phone.
• Through hotel staff: give them cash, and they will top up the balance from their account.
• Online on operator websites does not work with Russian cards, so this method is not suitable.

Topping up is useful for international calls or if the tariff does not include the services you need.
