How long does a transfer to Vietnam from the United Kingdom take?
Transfers to Vietnam from the United Kingdom can arrive in as little as 10 minutes, but the actual time depends on the payout method and the receiving bank or provider, and the estimated arrival time is shown in the app before you confirm.
| Payout method | What the recipient needs | What affects delivery time |
|---|---|---|
| Bank deposit (VND) | Full legal name and bank account number at a bank such as Vietcombank, BIDV, Techcombank, VietinBank, Agribank, MB Bank or Sacombank | Receiving bank processing and cut-off times |
| Mobile wallet (e.g. MoMo, ZaloPay) | Registered name and the phone number or ID linked to the wallet | Wallet provider verification and account status |
| Cash pickup | Transfer/tracking number and valid government-issued photo ID | Agent location opening hours and availability |
Delivery can take longer if you send outside the receiving bank's cut-off times, over a weekend or a local holiday, if identity or compliance checks are required, or if any recipient detail is entered incorrectly.
How much does it cost to send money to Vietnam from the United Kingdom?
The exchange rate and every fee are shown in the Coinepay app before you confirm the transfer, so you always see the total before you pay. What you pay depends on the amount you send, the currency the recipient receives and the payout method you choose. Your recipient should also check whether their own bank or wallet provider charges an incoming or handling fee, as that is set by them and is separate from your Coinepay transfer.
Ways to receive money in Vietnam from the United Kingdom
Bank deposit
For a local VND deposit you will usually need the recipient's full name exactly as held by their bank and their bank account number. Vietnam does not use IBAN, so a standard account number is used instead. For an international wire you may also need the receiving bank's name and address and its SWIFT/BIC (for example, Vietcombank uses BFTVVNVX for remittances to its accounts). Provide any additional code the receiving bank or the app specifically requests.
Mobile wallets (MoMo, ZaloPay)
Popular Vietnamese wallets such as MoMo and ZaloPay can receive transfers where available. The recipient needs their wallet registered in their own name and the phone number or ID linked to it. Confirm the specific wallet is offered in the checkout before you send.
Cash pickup
For cash collection the recipient brings the transfer or tracking number and a valid government-issued photo ID to a participating agent location. Availability depends on the selected transfer.
What you need to send money to Vietnam from the United Kingdom
- A verified Coinepay account (registration and identity verification completed).
- The recipient's full legal name exactly as it appears on their bank account, wallet or ID.
- The payout details for the chosen method: bank account number, wallet phone number/ID, or the collection details for cash pickup.
- The purpose of the transfer and, if asked, the source of funds, since transfers are subject to compliance checks.
The local currency is the Vietnamese dong (VND). Keep in mind that a receiving bank or wallet may apply its own limits or ask the recipient for evidence of the transfer's purpose, and Vietnamese foreign-exchange rules govern how foreign-currency receipts are held or withdrawn.
