The precious metals market in Vietnam during late October 2026 experienced notable developments across spot price quotations, regulatory frameworks, and consumer demand patterns. Following the implementation of revised cashless transaction requirements, trading operations at authorized retail jewelry houses adapted quickly. Simultaneously, international spot market fluctuations continued to influence domestic price adjustments and policy interventions.

## 1. SJC Bullion and 9999 Ring Quotations on October 28

According to the official price board published by Saigon Jewelry Company at [SJC](https://sjc.com.vn) on October 28, 2026, SJC gold bullion was quoted at 138.7 million VND per tael for buying and 141.7 million VND per tael for selling. The bid-ask spread for SJC gold bars on October 28, 2026, remained at 3.0 million VND per tael. This price level was uniformly maintained across SJC retail branches in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City throughout the trading session on October 28, 2026.

According to reported quotations from [DOJI](https://doji.vn) and [Bao Tin Minh Chau](https://btmc.vn) on October 28, 2026, private jewelry groups mirrored this price structure. DOJI quoted SJC gold bars at 138.7 million VND per tael for buying and 141.7 million VND per tael for selling on October 28, 2026. For 9999 plain round gold rings, DOJI posted a buying price of 138.2 million VND per tael and a selling price of 140.2 million VND per tael on October 28, 2026. Concurrently on October 28, 2026, Bao Tin Minh Chau quoted its Thang Long Dragon plain rings at 138.1 million VND per tael for buying and 140.1 million VND per tael for selling.

| Product Type | Buying Price (million VND/tael) | Selling Price (million VND/tael) | Spread (million VND/tael) |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| SJC Gold Bars | 138.7 | 141.7 | 3.0 |
| DOJI 9999 Plain Rings | 138.2 | 140.2 | 2.0 |
| Thang Long Dragon Rings | 138.1 | 140.1 | 2.0 |

According to market reporting from [CafeF](https://cafef.vn) on October 28, 2026, the trading spread for 9999 plain gold rings stood at 2.0 million VND per tael, which is lower than the 3.0 million VND spread maintained for standard SJC gold bars. This difference illustrates that plain ring supply chains retained higher short-term liquidity compared to state-managed bullion bars throughout October 2026.

## 2. Global Gold Spot Prices and Converted Import Gap

According to international spot data published on [Kitco](https://www.kitco.com) on October 28, 2026, spot gold (XAU/USD) traded within a daily range of 3,996 USD per ounce to 4,002 USD per ounce, closing near the 4,000 USD benchmark. Global market sentiment in October 2026 was shaped by monetary policy expectations from the Federal Reserve and sustained safe-haven demand from central banks worldwide.

According to Ginity calculation using the commercial bank selling rate of 26,350 VND per USD on October 28, 2026, global spot gold converts to approximately 122.8 million VND per tael (before import tariffs and fabrication costs). Comparing this to the domestic SJC bar selling price of 141.7 million VND per tael on October 28, 2026, domestic bullion traded at an absolute premium of 18.9 million VND per tael over the converted international benchmark, representing a 15.4% price premium. Meanwhile, 9999 plain rings sold at 140.2 million VND per tael on October 28, 2026, reflecting a smaller premium of 17.4 million VND per tael.

The absolute spread between domestic bullion and the converted global spot price is expressed through the following equation:

$$\text{Absolute Spread} = \text{SJC Selling Price} - \text{Converted Global Price}$$

According to analytical data compiled by [CafeF](https://cafef.vn) in October 2026, the 18.9 million VND per tael premium reflects domestic structural demand, where institutional and retail preference for physical bullion remains high throughout 2026.

## 3. Impact of Decree 390 on Bullion Cashless Rules

According to an official announcement published by [Government News](https://baochinhphu.vn) on October 17, 2026, the Government issued Decree 390/2026/ND-CP amending Decree 24/2012/ND-CP on gold business management, taking legal effect on October 16, 2026. Clause 10 of Article 4 mandates that any gold purchase or sale valued at 5 million VND or higher within a single day must be settled through non-cash payment instruments, specifically commercial bank transfers.

According to field assessments reported by [CafeF](https://cafef.vn) on October 28, 2026, Decree 390/2026/ND-CP altered retail counter dynamics across major bullion outlets. Retail buyers purchasing half a mace of ring gold or one tael of SJC bullion are now required to pay via verified bank wire or authenticated debit cards. This mechanism introduces formal transparency into domestic capital flows, curbing unauthorized cash accumulation and enhancing financial compliance in 2026.

According to retail compliance records from [SJC](https://sjc.com.vn) and [DOJI](https://doji.vn) in October 2026, authorized dealers expanded digital payment points and electronic identity verification systems to facilitate uninterrupted compliance since the initial rollout on October 16, 2026.

## 4. State Bank Gold Auctions and Market Interventions

According to an operational bulletin published by the [State Bank of Vietnam (SBV)](https://www.sbv.gov.vn) on October 20, 2026, the monetary authority maintained direct supply interventions to alleviate localized bullion shortages. In 2026, the central bank organized targeted SJC bullion auctions and distributed physical gold directly through four state-owned commercial banks (Vietcombank, Agribank, BIDV, VietinBank) and Saigon Jewelry Company.

According to policy analysis published by [Government News](https://baochinhphu.vn) on October 20, 2026, organized gold distribution helped prevent unchecked price divergence. While historical market stress previously expanded the domestic spread beyond 20 million VND per tael, the late October 2026 gap of 18.9 million VND per tael remained contained within regulatory projections.

According to procedural guidelines from the [State Bank of Vietnam (SBV)](https://www.sbv.gov.vn) in 2026, electronic appointment booking tied to national citizen identity cards prevented unauthorized intermediary hoarding and ensured that official gold allocations reached genuine retail buyers.

## 5. Accumulation Demand and Google Trends Search Data

According to consumption metrics reported by [CafeF](https://cafef.vn) on October 28, 2026, retail demand for physical gold accumulation in Vietnam remained robust throughout the fourth quarter of 2026. Physical precious metals serve as a long-standing wealth preservation vehicle for Vietnamese households amid global inflation and foreign exchange shifts in 2026.

According to Google Trends measurement data covering October 21, 2026, through October 28, 2026, search interest index for the keyword query "giá vàng SJC" in Vietnam reached the peak level of 100 points in late October 2026. Query density concentrated in major commercial centers, including Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and Hai Phong. Top queries centered on SJC gold bar buying and selling rates on October 28, 2026, 9999 ring price updates on October 28, 2026, and cashless payment guidelines under Decree 390/2026/ND-CP.

The ongoing alignment between traditional physical accumulation habits and modernized non-cash transaction rules under Decree 390/2026/ND-CP underscores the evolution of Vietnam's gold ecosystem toward institutional transparency in late October 2026.
