Currency Exchange at Noi Bai Airport (Hanoi): Rubles and Online USD into Dong

Looking for currency exchange at Noi Bai Airport? It's Hanoi's main airport. EXFM has no booth in the terminal: the exchange is handled remotely, so you can agree on rubles or Online USD with a manager before your flight and receive dong on arrival.

What to know about Noi Bai Airport

Noi Bai is outside Hanoi, and the ride to the Old Quarter takes time. You need dong for a taxi or transfer before you reach the center, and exchange counters in terminals usually give a less favorable rate than in town — having cash sorted out in advance saves both time and nerves.

An arrival scenario

If your flight to Hanoi lands in the evening and you still have to get to the Old Quarter, even a small amount of cash as you leave the terminal makes the ride easier. Keep the managers' schedule in mind — until 00:00 GMT+7 — and agree on receiving your dong ahead of time.

Three ways to get dong on arrival

1. ATM code. Give your manager the point and time of collection; on arrival you receive a code and step-by-step instructions. No bank card is needed, but it's best to check available ATMs in advance.
2. VietQR. Send the seller's or driver's QR code — your manager pays, and you transfer rubles to EXFM. This method is available when you settle in rubles.
3. An account in Vietnam. If you hold an account in your name, the dong can be sent straight to it — the manager checks the details before the operation.

What EXFM doesn't do at the airport

• There is no EXFM counter or office in the terminal — the exchange is handled remotely through a manager.
• Converting dong back into rubles or dollars (before departure, for example) is not part of the service.
• Agree on the rate and the dong amount with your manager before sending funds.

Step by step: before and after your flight

1. Before your flight, message a manager in Telegram or WhatsApp and name the currency (rubles or Online USD) and amount.
2. If you're new to EXFM, complete a video verification (KYC).
3. Agree on the rate and the way to receive: cardless ATM, VietQR or a transfer to your account.
4. Send funds to the details your manager gives you.
5. After landing, tell your manager you've arrived — and receive the code or confirmation.
