Silver in Vietnam — Market Overview
Vietnam's precious metals market is heavily dominated by gold. SJC (Saigon Jewelry Company) gold bars are the most widely recognised store of value, with the State Bank of Vietnam closely regulating the domestic gold market. Silver occupies a secondary role — it is widely available as jewellery and traditional ornaments, but the investment infrastructure for silver is far less developed than for gold.
- SJC (Saigon Jewelry Company): Vietnam's leading precious metals brand, majority-owned by Ho Chi Minh City authorities. SJC produces gold bars, gold jewellery, and silver items. The SJC gold bar price (often trading at a premium to international gold due to Vietnam's gold import controls) is a daily reference for millions of Vietnamese savers.
- Traditional silver craft: Ethnic minority groups across Vietnam's northern highlands — Hmong, Dao, Thai, and others — have rich silver jewellery traditions. Intricate silver necklaces, bracelets, and headdress ornaments are part of ceremonial dress and are made by skilled local silversmiths in communities across Sapa, Ha Giang, and Bac Ha.
- Electronics manufacturing connection: Vietnam has become a major global electronics manufacturing hub. Samsung, Intel, LG, and Apple suppliers operate large factories in the country. Silver's role in soldering, electronic contacts, and photovoltaic cells means Vietnam is an indirect participant in global industrial silver demand growth.
- VND denomination: The Vietnamese Dong is denominated in very large nominal numbers — 1 USD is approximately 25,000 VND. As a result, silver prices in VND will appear as large numbers (millions of Dong per kilogram). This is normal and reflects the denomination, not an exceptional price.
Gold Dominates Vietnam — Silver as the Affordable Alternative
Vietnamese culture places enormous importance on gold as a store of wealth and a symbol of prosperity. Bridal gold (vàng cưới) is a key part of Vietnamese wedding customs — the groom's family traditionally presents gold jewellery, gold rings, and gold bars to the bride. This deep cultural demand for gold means it far outshines silver in the Vietnamese precious metals market.
However, for buyers who cannot afford gold, silver provides an accessible entry point into precious metals. At roughly 1/80th the price per gram of gold, silver is within reach of a much wider population. Vietnamese gold shops routinely carry silver rings, chains, and bangles alongside gold products.
The gold-to-silver ratio — how many ounces of silver equal one ounce of gold — is a key metric watched by precious metals investors globally. When this ratio is historically high (above 80), silver is considered relatively cheap versus gold. When it compresses toward 50–60, silver has historically outperformed.
