Can You Use Australian Dollars in Vietnam?

Australian travellers heading to Vietnam often wonder if they can use Aussie dollars in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, or Da Nang. In short, Australian dollars are not accepted for most purchases. While some hotels may accept AUD at a poor rate, it’s always better to convert to VND before you shop, dine, or take public transport. Withdrawing cash ahead of time ensures you’re ready with Vietnam’s official currency.
