🇻🇳 How to Send a Fax to Vietnam From the US

📅 Updated November 2026 · 🌍 Worldwide delivery
✦ Quick Answer

Choose Vietnam (+84), leave out the first 0 of the fax number and type the 10 digits that remain, so the Hanoi number 024 1234 5678 is entered as 2412345678. The price is $6.99 for up to 3 pages and $0.99 for each extra page, with no account needed.

The Number Format After the 2017 Area Code Change

In 2017 Vietnam gave new fixed-line area codes to 59 provinces and cities. Hanoi moved from 4 to 24 and Ho Chi Minh City moved from 8 to 28 on 17 June 2017. Da Nang moved from 511 to 236 on 11 February 2017, and Hai Phong moved from 31 to 225 and Can Tho from 710 to 292 on 15 April 2017. Only the area code changed, so the subscriber digits after it stayed the same. Subscriber numbers have 8 digits in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City and 7 digits in other provinces, which means that a Vietnamese office line has 10 digits once you leave out the first 0.

Hanoi: 024 1234 5678 is entered as 2412345678

Ho Chi Minh City: 028 1234 5678 is entered as 2812345678

Da Nang: 0236 123 4567 is entered as 2361234567

Updating an old number. If an older letter or website shows a Hanoi number as 04 1234 5678, the same line today is 024 1234 5678, so you type 2412345678. In the same way, an old Da Nang number with 0511 now uses 0236 in front of the same 7 digits.

What a Fax to Vietnam Costs

Vietnam is priced at $6.99 for 1 to 3 pages, and every page after the third adds $0.99. A 5-page fax therefore costs $6.99 plus $1.98, which is $8.97 in total. The price appears on the screen before you pay, there is no account, and there is no subscription.

Step by Step: From Upload to Confirmation

You only need a web browser and the fax number of the office in Vietnam.

1
Upload your document

Open overseasfax.com and add the pages you want to send. You can attach up to 10 files to one fax, such as a PDF, a Word file or a clear photo.

2
Choose Vietnam

Select Vietnam in the country list. The price of $6.99 appears, and +84 is placed in front of the number box for you.

3
Type the 10 digits

Enter the number without its first 0, using the current area code, for example 2812345678 for a Ho Chi Minh City line.

4
Enter your email and pay

Type the email address for your confirmation and pay by card. The fax starts sending right after the payment.

5
Check your confirmation email

Delivery usually happens within a few minutes, and some international routes can take up to about 30 minutes. The email shows the destination number, the page count and the time in US Eastern Time.

What to Put on the Cover Page

We do not print anything on your pages, so please add a cover page that explains who the fax is for and who sent it. Write the recipient's full name and department, their fax number, your name with an email address, the number of pages, and any file or reference number from earlier letters. If the recipient's name contains Vietnamese accents, copying it exactly from their own letter or website helps the staff route your fax correctly, and a PDF keeps those accents clear.

If the Fax Does Not Go Through

The most common problem is an old area code, so please check the number against the changes listed above before you send again. Other causes are a 0 typed at the front, a missing digit, or a line that was busy or switched off. Vietnam is 12 hours ahead of New York while the US is on standard time and 11 hours ahead during US daylight time, so the start of the working day in Hanoi falls in the evening in New York. If a fax cannot be delivered, you are refunded automatically.

Receiving a Reply by Fax

When the office in Vietnam wants to fax a document back to you, GetAFax.com can give you a private US fax number for 24 hours for $5. It receives up to 30 pages, and each fax arrives in your email as a PDF.

Who in the US Faxes Vietnam

People in the US send faxes to Vietnam when an office there asks for a signed paper copy, for example an embassy or consulate, a university, a bank or a business partner. Please always use the fax number that the office publishes on its official website or prints on its letter.

Questions About Faxing Vietnam

My Vietnam fax number starts with 04, is that still right?
No, that is an old Hanoi number. Since 17 June 2017 Hanoi uses 024, so 04 1234 5678 becomes 024 1234 5678 and you type 2412345678.
What is the area code for Ho Chi Minh City when I fax Vietnam?
28. Inside Vietnam it is written 028, and from abroad you type 28 followed by the 8-digit subscriber number.
How many digits do I type for a fax to Vietnam?
10 digits for an office line. That is the area code without its 0 plus the subscriber number, for example 2412345678 for Hanoi.
How much is a 5 page fax to Vietnam?
$8.97. The first 3 pages cost $6.99 and each of the 2 extra pages is $0.99.
Why does a fax to Vietnam cost $6.99 when France is $2.99?
Each country has its own price in our list. Vietnam is $6.99 for up to 3 pages, and the price is always shown before you pay.
I have an old Da Nang fax number with 0511, what do I type for Vietnam?
Replace 511 with 236. Da Nang changed its code on 11 February 2017, so you type 236 followed by the same 7 digits.
What time is it in Vietnam when it's 9 a.m. in New York?
9 p.m. the same day during US standard time, and 8 p.m. during US daylight time.
Do I need to type +84 myself when I fax Vietnam?
No. Choosing Vietnam adds +84 for you, so you only type the 10 digits without the first 0.
My fax to Vietnam failed, what should I check first?
The area code. Many old numbers still show codes from before 2017, so update the code, check that you left out the 0, and send again. The failed fax is refunded automatically.
Is there a monthly fee to fax Vietnam?
No. You pay $6.99 for one fax of up to 3 pages, and nothing renews afterward.
Can someone in Vietnam fax me back if I don't have a fax machine?
Yes. GetAFax.com gives you a private US fax number for 24 hours for $5, and up to 30 pages arrive in your email as PDF files.
Will the person in Vietnam know the fax came from me?
Only if you tell them on a cover page. Nothing is printed on your document by us, so put your name and contact details on the first page.
