"Currency" Ho Chi Minh City Packing List Tip by walterwu

Ho Chi Minh City What to Pack: 36 reviews and 41 photos

Miscellaneous: Vietnamese Dong is the currency of the country and is the means of payment for some supermarket and some local businesses. The US dollars serves as an alternate currency for most small local businesses thriving on tourist trade.

Dongs are in thousands and millions with (.) as the separator.

Example:
200.000 would be translated to two hundred thousand dong.

Seems to be following the European Euro format.

Review Helpfulness: 2.5 out of 5 stars
