On arrival in Da Nang, travelers have asked about exchanging USDT at a good rate, as well as ATMs that support Apple Pay for withdrawing cash from a Mastercard.
Currency exchange booths just to the left of Da Nang airport exit offer rates comparable to those in the city. The difference is minimal, making it practical to exchange right at the airport.
A traveler who arrived at Cam Ranh airport without exchanging dollars faced difficulties — a local guide warned that exchanging currency in Cam Ranh city itself is hard. The advice: always exchange at the airport on arrival.
