What the community said

Exchange booths are located to the left as you exit Da Nang airport, but it's better not to exchange large amounts there — the rate isn't great.

If your hotel is near the airport, you can exchange currency at a bank in that area — you'll need your passport. Most tourists typically exchange money elsewhere.

Leftover dong can easily be spent at the airport before departure — at shops and cafes in the terminal. The main thing is to make sure there are no issues at the departure airport.

If you have a large amount of dong left, it's better to exchange it in the city before heading to the airport, where rates are more favorable. Exchanging at the airport is not recommended.

Small leftover amounts (around 20,000 VND or less) are easiest to spend at the airport or leave behind — exchanging such small sums is not worth the trouble.
