Where can an international visitor open a bank account and get a physical Visa or Mastercard debit card in Da Nang with a passport and valid Vietnam e-visa?
Based on 2 discussions with 3 participants · Last activity: 25 days ago
TL;DR
With a valid e-visa, try major Vietcombank, BIDV, ACB, or VPBank branches in Hải Châu first. Card issuance depends on each bank’s policy and visa validity; bring your passport, visa, Vietnamese phone number, and local address.

Start at Vietcombank Đà Nẵng’s main branch, 140 Lê Lợi, Hải Châu. Ask for a foreigner payment account and an international Visa debit card; a short e-visa may limit the card’s validity to your permitted stay.

Another option is BIDV Đà Nẵng on Hùng Vương in central Hải Châu. Bring your original passport, printed e-visa, and proof of your local address; staff may also require a Vietnamese mobile number for a Visa or Mastercard debit card.

At ACB, ask about an international physical debit card at the branch at 218 Bạch Đằng, Hải Châu. Specify that you need a physical card as a foreign visitor—not only mobile banking or a local account—as e-visa applications may be decided branch by branch.

VPBank in central Da Nang is also worth trying, particularly if you need English-speaking staff and an international debit card. Bring cash for an opening deposit and a possible issuance fee; fees are commonly in the tens of thousands of VND but vary by bank.
