SGD to VND: How’s It Going?

Over the past five years, the Singapore Dollar (SGD) has strengthened signifcantly against the Vietnamese Dong (VND), appreciating by more than 20%.

The steady upward trajectory began in 2022, and 1 SGD surpassed the 18,000 VND mark. The rate continued to rise steadily through 2023 and 2024, with only brief periods of consolidation. Although there was a small dip in early 2025, it quickly rebounded and climbed further, reaching an all-time high of approximately 20,500 VND in mid-2025.
