How to Send Flowers to Vietnam from Abroad
You can send flowers to Vietnam from abroad by ordering online and paying with an international card or PayPal. A local florist then hand-delivers fresh bouquets, plants or gifts to any address in Vietnam the next day, as long as you order before midnight Vietnam time. The sections below cover the steps, timing, cost and local etiquette.
Can you send flowers to Vietnam from another country?
Yes. Orders are accepted from any country, so the process is the same whether you live in the USA, the UK, Canada, Spain or somewhere else. If you are in the USA, you can send flowers to Vietnam from the USA using a Visa, Mastercard or American Express card, or PayPal.
Coverage is nationwide. The florists deliver across all of Vietnam, including Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, along with many smaller cities. You do not need to be close to a shop, because the florist in the recipient's city does the work.
How do you send flowers to Vietnam from abroad, step by step?
The order itself takes a few minutes:
- Browse the flowers category, which lists 152 bouquets, arrangements and plants. A popular pick is the Golden Hour Cube at USD 69.99.
- Enter the recipient's full name, full address in Vietnam and phone number.
- Write your message. Every order includes a free printed card.
- Optionally add a box of chocolates, a glass vase, a plush teddy bear, a greeting card, balloons or a wine bottle.
- If you have a preferred delivery time, write it in the delivery instructions. The florist tries to meet it, but exact time slots are not guaranteed.
- Pay in USD by international card or PayPal. Card payments run through Stripe.
Nothing is shipped from abroad. A florist in Vietnam makes the arrangement and delivers it locally.
How long does delivery take and when should you order?
Delivery is next day across Vietnam for orders placed before midnight Vietnam time, Monday to Saturday. Same-day delivery is not offered, and there are no deliveries on Sundays or main public holidays. Tết (Lunar New Year) is the biggest of those holidays, so plan well ahead if your date falls near it.
Vietnam is UTC+7 and does not use daylight saving time. The time gap with your home country changes when your country switches clocks, so check the time in Vietnam before you place a late-evening order.
For fixed dates, the site suggests ordering at least 2 to 3 days ahead. The table below lists the next key dates.
| Date | Occasion (local name) | Timing note |
|---|---|---|
| December 25, 2026 | Christmas (Giáng sinh) | Order at least 2 to 3 days ahead |
| February 14, 2027 | Valentine's Day (Lễ Tình nhân) | Falls on a Sunday, so order by Friday, February 12 for Saturday delivery |
| March 8, 2027 | International Women's Day (Ngày Quốc tế Phụ nữ) | Flowers are customary, so order at least 2 to 3 days ahead |
| October 20, 2027 | Vietnamese Women's Day (Ngày Phụ nữ Việt Nam) | Flowers are the customary gift, so order at least 2 to 3 days ahead |
Valentine's Day in 2027 is a Sunday, which catches many people out. Order by Friday so the bouquet arrives on Saturday.
How much does it cost to send flowers to Vietnam?
Bouquets start at USD 59.99, and the catalog goes up to USD 162.99. Every order carries a flat USD 14.95 delivery fee, so the least expensive order costs USD 74.94 in total before any optional add-ons. A premium choice such as the Iridescent Rose Luxe at USD 129.99 comes to USD 144.94 with delivery.
You are charged in US dollars. Euro and pound prices appear on the site for reference only. The free card message is included in the price, so there is no extra charge for writing a note.
What flowers are appropriate in Vietnam, and which should you avoid?
Bright, festive flowers suit most happy occasions, including birthdays (sinh nhật), Tết, Christmas, Valentine's Day and both women's days. Red and yellow are widely seen as lucky colors, so they are a safe choice for celebrations.
White flowers and chrysanthemums are linked with funerals and ancestor altars, so leave them out of birthday and celebration orders. If you are sending condolences, browse the sympathy category and include a card that says what you want to say.
Many Vietnamese families prefer even numbers of flowers for happy occasions and avoid the number four, which sounds close to the word for death. Choose a bouquet or arrangement rather than a single stem when you can.
Cakes and food hampers are not sold, so the add-ons are the way to add something extra to a bouquet.
What details do you need from the recipient?
Before you order, get three things: the recipient's full name, their full address in Vietnam and a phone number. The florist uses the phone number to coordinate the delivery, so a number the recipient actually answers works best.
Ask the recipient to confirm the address before you place the order, because the florist delivers to the address you enter. Then write a card message that sounds like you, since it is printed and included with every order.
To place your order, visit floristsvietnam.com, choose a bouquet from the flowers category, enter the recipient's details and pay in USD. Order before midnight Vietnam time, Monday to Saturday, for next-day delivery.
