VND Amount in Words

Write a Vietnamese dong amount in words, as it appears on invoices and receipts. On Vietnamese invoices this line is labelled Số tiền bằng chữ (“amount in words”).

How it is written

  • Start with a capital letter and end with đồng: Một triệu năm trăm nghìn đồng.
  • Many invoices add chẵn (“exactly”) after a round amount, so that nothing can be added later.
  • Prices in speech often drop the last word: hai trăm nghìn means 200,000 dong.
