View full history →About the Vietnam gold market
Vietnam's domestic gold price has historically traded at a large premium to the international rate — commonly $300-800 per ounce above the global benchmark — a gap linked to decades of state control, including a 2012 decree that made state-owned Saigon Jewellery Company (SJC) the sole legal producer of gold bars.

Vietnam charges 10% VAT on gold jewellery purchases. Imported jewellery from ASEAN countries is exempt from import duty but still carries the 10% VAT, while jewellery imported from outside ASEAN carries a 30% import duty on top of the same 10% VAT.

Vietnam's domestic gold price is quoted per tael (lượng), a different unit from the gram or troy ounce used elsewhere on this page -- always convert explicitly rather than assuming a quoted number is directly comparable.

Methodology
How we calculate the price
- We fetch the international spot gold price (XAU/USD) live from xaus.com + gold-api.com, with automatic failover between providers.
- The spot rate is converted into the local currency using live exchange rates from exchangerate-api.com, then scaled by purity (24K, 22K, 18K…) and by weight (gram, tola, ounce, kilogram, baht).
- The result is the pure spot value. Retail counters may add dealer premium, tax and making charges — the number here is the underlying benchmark.
