Full details

No specific restrictions for personal gold jewellery. Documentation: Customs declaration form for gold bars above 300 g; State Bank of Vietnam gold import licence for bars above 300 g. In the reverse direction (taking gold jewellery out of Vietnam): allowed — Personal gold jewellery may be exported from Vietnam for personal use; commercial quantities and gold bullion require declaration.

Leaving Vietnam with gold jewellery

ALLOWEDPersonal gold jewellery may be exported from Vietnam for personal use; commercial quantities and gold bullion require declaration.

Personal-wear gold jewellery is generally free to export from Vietnam at reasonable personal-use quantities. High-value personal jewellery (typically above USD 10,000 equivalent) should be declared using the Vietnam Customs currency declaration. Gold bullion, bars, and coins face different treatment — may require advance export authorisation from the central bank for commercial quantities. Antique jewellery over cultural-property age thresholds may require an export permit.

PRACTICAL ADVICE

Personal-wear gold jewellery clears as routine. Bulk imports above the destination's threshold attract duty + VAT; cash-declaration rules may apply on high-value bullion.
