Is Thai Baht easily exchanged for Vietnamese Dong in Hanoi?

Question

I was in HCMC recently and some places did not accept Thai Baht. Is it better to bring US Dollars or is Baht ok? Thanks.

Answer 1

go to http://www.xe.com/ucc/

which is known as the universal currency converter.

Answer 2

Definitely US dollars (over Thai Baht). However, the best way is to bring your credit and/or debit cards and get cash directly from ATM's in Vietnam. You'll have the best exchange rate that way.

Note to Melan N.: Your answer is not responsive to the question. Access to a currency conversion calculator does not address whether its more advantageous to bring  Thai Bahts to Vietnam to exchange for the Dong there or to exchange to the dollars first in Thailand and bring US dollars to Vietnam.

Answer 3

I always bring US Dollars.  Excepted everywhere.  Exchange into Dong at Jewelry Stores, get a good rate there.  Good Luck.

Answer 4

Answer 5
