Vietnamese notes and coins
- Banknotes are available in denominations of ₫1,000, ₫2,000, ₫5,000, ₫10,000, ₫20,000, ₫50,000, ₫100,000, ₫200,000, and ₫500,000.
- As for coins, while denominations of ₫200, ₫500, ₫1,000, ₫2,000, and ₫5,000 exist, they’re rarely used—think of them as shiny collector's pieces rather than daily currency.
Fun facts about the Dong
- Got more than VND 15,000,000 or USD 5,000 worth of cash on hand? Don’t forget to declare it at customs!
- Vietnam has issued commemorative coins in copper, brass, silver, and even gold since 1986, but they’ve never hit circulation.
