Yes, you have to use cash or checks or cards in VND in Vietnam, sellers are prohibited to accept any foreigner currencies. Even listing as USD/EURO/etc. is illegal in VN. You can use any foreigner currencies only when your business are reviewed and even when accepted, it's very restricted.

- pejrich 9y agoThere's not really a sea of money changers here, in fact there's not many outside the backpacker/tourist area downtown. Also, the fact that the country has a few money changers is different that regular businesses accepting currency besides VND. Trying paying for your dinner with USD, I would imagine 80% would not accept it, and the 20% that do, would only do so if you paid at a rate that made it worth their while to go and change it themselves. As an American living here, I'm all for it. The Vietnamese currency is far superior the American currency. All bills, no coins. Plastic bills that don't rip, and can get wet.
