💡 General Tipping Etiquette

Tipping in Vietnam isn’t mandatory or customary, but it is always appreciated

High-end restaurants usually expect a tip for good service (10-15 % or included on the bill); small places don’t expect a tip.

Not required (try to negotiate the price beforehand)

Not expected, but 1 $ per transfer for bellhops is appreciated and same per night for cleaning staff.

$7-10 (200’000 dong) per day is the appropriate amount for a good job
