Casinos in Vietnam: 2026 guide

None of the operators listed below holds a licence of this country — all of them work under foreign licences.

Regulation

Vietnam permits land-based casinos mainly for foreigners: venues operate at large resorts (Da Nang, Hoi An, Phu Quoc and others), and entry usually requires a foreign passport. Participation by local citizens was long banned, but a limited pilot project has been launched allowing certain residents subject to age, income and entry-fee requirements. Online casinos are not legalised, and access to foreign sites may be blocked. The state lottery and certain licensed betting are also legal. The currency is the Vietnamese dong; settlements in US dollars are also common in casinos. This material is informational: users should note the restrictions for citizens, the pilot status of access, and the illegality of online casinos.
