Vietnam’s FX market on 8/6/2026 shows broadly firmer domestic buy/sell rates across major currencies, alongside a global backdrop of a stronger US Dollar Index.
Global signal: The US Dollar Index is at 100.09, up from 100.071 in the previous day, 99.168 7 days ago, and 97.843 30 days ago—indicating a sustained USD-strength trend.
Domestic USD rates: In Vietnam, the US Dollar is quoted at VND 26,124 (buy) and VND 26,404 (sell). Compared with the previous day, the sell rate was 26,404, while it was slightly lower 7 days ago (26,394) and 30 days ago (26,367).
Other major currencies (VND per unit): Many pairs also sit higher than earlier points in the 7- and 30-day windows, reflecting the same general direction as USD strength.
Examples: Australian Dollar VND 18,462.31 (buy) / 19,053.53 (sell); Canadian Dollar 18,645.8 / 19,242.9; Swiss Franc 32,858.2 / 33,910.43; Euro 30,094.89 / 31,364.62; UK Pound Sterling 34,783.69 / 35,897.57; Japanese Yen 160.5 / 168.99.
Selected additional currencies: Chinese Yuan 3,827.43 / 3,950; Danish Krone 4,016.21 / 4,169.77; Hong Kong Dollar 3,299.39 / 3,425.54; Indian Rupee 273.37 / 285.13; Korean Won 16.43 / 17.82; Singapore Dollar 20,161.61 / 20,848.92; Thai Baht 789.41 / 822.88.
Middle East and Nordic currencies: Kuwaiti Dinar 85,314.71 / 89,449.6; Saudi Arabian Riyal 6,974.16 / 7,274.28; Norwegian Krone 2,760.21 / 2,877.24; Swedish Krona 2,749.71 / 2,866.29.
News context over the past 24 hours: Reports highlighted that the USD maintained an upward momentum supported by positive US economic data, and that the US Dollar Index rose to around the 100.7 area in coverage. Together with the index level in the data, this aligns with the firmer domestic FX quotations seen on 8/6/2026.
Key takeaway: With the US Dollar Index up versus 7 and 30 days ago and Vietnam’s USD sell rate holding at VND 26,404 (matching the previous day), the overall FX tape in Vietnam appears to be trading with a USD-supportive bias.
