How to send money from UK to Vietnam
Pick a company
For a one-off GBP transfer to Vietnam, I suggest picking the cheapest option which is TapTap Send.
TapTap Send was the cheapest on 7 of the 30 days it quoted £6,000 transfers to Vietnam.
On a 6,000 GBP transfer, TapTap Send delivers the most VND.
The best option will change depending on how much you actually send, so I suggest to get the best GBP/VND rate.
Fund your transfer
You have 3 ways to pay, including bank transfer, debit card, and credit card.
Paying from your bank is usually both cheapest and quickest, since most companies connect straight into your banking app via Open Banking.
Anywhere a debit card works, Apple Pay and Google Pay usually do too.
Verify and send
First time round you'll need to confirm your name, date of birth, address and a photo ID.
On a £6,000 transfer it's normally instant but can take a couple of hours.

Each line shows what the recipient gets when you send £6,000, after fees, as quoted by each company. The mid-market line shows what £6,000 converts to at the real exchange rate, with no fees or markup. Rates are checked once a day. Sponsored placements never affect this data. There are no bank quotes for this period.
The dashed line is what you'd get at the mid-market rate with no fees, and the blue line is the cheapest option that day.
When the blue line goes above the dashed one, you're getting more VND per GBP than the mid-market rate can offer.
This could be due to money transfer offers, FX rate adjustments, or market competitiveness.
In the past month, a money transfer company beat the mid-market rate on 2 of the last 30 days.
Right now, TapTap Send pays 206,100,000 VND on 6,000 GBP, which is 60,912.85 VND less than the mid-market amount.
Today's payout isn't the best this month though, since the highest receive amount was 207,315,406.33 VND.
If you can wait and want to get the most out of your transfer, create a rate alert and we'll let you know when the rate improves.

Different companies can come out cheapest depending on the day and the amount you send.
To keep things fair, we only count the comparisons each company appeared in, and only analyse companies that appeared in at least 50% of all comparisons (so occasional cheapest options don't skew it).
Today TapTap Send is the cheapest and gets you the most VND, but it was the cheapest in only 17% of the 196 comparisons it appeared in over the past month.
Regency FX (today's second cheapest) was the cheapest in 78% of its comparisons, so if you send money to Vietnam regularly, it's worth comparing it with TapTap Send before each transfer.
If it's a one-off transfer, go with TapTap Send, since it's the cheapest right now.

Consider this when sending GBP to Vietnam
There are a few nuances you should consider before sending GBP to Vietnam such as limits, taxes, and safety.
1
Compare GBP/VND transfer options
Right now, these are the best money transfer options for a £6,000 transfer to Vietnam:
Cheapest way to send money to Vietnam
The cheapest way is to use TapTap Send, pay in with a debit card and withdraw via bank deposit. You will get ₫206,100,000, which is 0.24% more than the next best option.
Fastest way to send money to Vietnam
The fastest way is to use Revolut via bank transfer deposit and bank deposit for pay out. You get ₫203,645,073 and it will arrive in within minutes.
2
UK transfer limits
There is no legal limit and no tax on sending your own money abroad.
Main hard limits come from your bank or money transfer company, often around £10,000 to £25,000 online (which you can usually increase in the app).
Also, the "£10,000 declaration" only applies to physically carrying cash through the border, not online transfers.
And on bigger GBP/VND transfers (roughly £10,000 up) expect a source-of-funds check, such as a payslip or a statement.
These are anti-money-laundering checks, and they can hold your transfer up, so have the documents ready.
3
The transfer costs involved
Your cost is the fee plus the exchange-rate margin.
For example, sending £6,000 with TapTap Send will get you 206,100,000 VND, that’s including £0 fee and 0.03% in exchange rate markup.
A bank like on the other hand, will get you ₫0, that’s £ in fees but % in FX fees.
4
Taxes on money transfers
There is no UK tax for the act of sending money to Vietnam.
And, regular gifts out of your normal income are free of inheritance tax straight away, no cap and no seven-year wait.
5
Staying safe when sending abroad
Only ever use a provider authorised by the FCA, which you can check on the FCA register in under a minute.
The rules in place for any scams cover domestic pound transfers only, on a transfer abroad you're less protected.
Always confirm who you're really sending to before you send, because there's little recourse after.
We track 9 regulated companies offering money transfers from the UK to Vietnam in real time.
We analyse the fees, exchange rates, deposit/withdrawal methods, and each goes through our internal review.
Most GBP/VND pricing data comes directly from the providers. We collect the rest manually, run it through our comparison engine and label it in the table.
In the past 30 days alone, we analysed 196 comparisons across 7 amounts.
This page covers the cheapest and fastest options for GBP/VND transfers. This is how we pick them:
Cheapest: the company that gets your recipient the most, after fees and the exchange rate. On a tie, live pricing from the company takes priority over the rates we collect by hand.
Fastest: the company with the shortest estimated delivery time once you’ve paid. On a tie, the one that pays out more takes priority.
