    Is HSBC a good place to change money for a Vietnam trip?

    Hi,

    just wanted to check with you all whether changing money at an HSBC branch is the way to go for getting my hands on some VND?

    if not, can anyone recommend a good place?

    thanks,
    DSB

    Vietnam has capital controls over their currency you basically need to get it in Vietnam at the ATMs.
