Getting Vietnamese Dong in Chiang Mai

[skorts]

Just been to SK Exchange on Charoenprathet Road to exchange some Thai Baht for Vietnamese Dong.
 

They don’t have any and said they don’t know when they will have any as there in no Vietnamese Dong coming in. 
 

Tried another place on Charoenprathet Road and they had none either. 
 

Any ideas where to get some in Chiang Mai or do we have to wait until we arrive in Vietnam?

When I previously wanted some Laos kip I went to numerous places,none were able to help. Then I went to a small place near Thapae gate and within an hour they sourced some.

 

Sorry, bit vague as I can't remember name of it. If it wasn't on Ratvithi road, then it was definitely the road before that heading back towards Thapae gate. Only a few shops into the road.

 

Apologies that I can't be more specific but they were very helpful in my circumstances.

Having watched the movie 16 Candles, I thought this thread about Dong was going to be something completely different.

Concur with that. I was short changed by about 12.5% but only got a very small amount in Thailand to pay for taxi transfer and some first evening provisions.
