Vietnam’s currency is the “Dong”

The photo shows the highest denomination, the 500,000 VND note

First, a basic explanation about the currency.


When using the Vietnamese dong, you might be confused by the large number of digits. To make it easier, here is a simple guide:

Denominations of the Vietnamese dong

The highest denomination is 500,000 VND (about 3,000 yen).
As a rough conversion to yen, just remove the last "000" from the number and multiply by 6.
Example:

100,000 VND ≈ 600 yen
200,000 VND ≈ 1,200 yen
500,000 VND ≈ 3,000 yen





About the abbreviation "K"

In Vietnam, the symbol "K" is commonly used to mean "thousand."
For example:

100K = 100,000 VND
You often see this notation on restaurant menus, at cafes, and on outdoor price boards.
