Personal Lending & Pawn — Nationwide

Pawn services for motorbikes, cars, jewellery and electronics in Ho Chi Minh City, plus bank loan file advisory, independent valuation and debt restructuring. Every shop states the TOTAL monthly cost per 10 million VND borrowed, all fees included.

Industry overview

Pawn shop flyers are everywhere, but the numbers on them cannot be compared: some quote monthly interest, some daily, and almost none mention the fees that come with it. This page lists each service with a reference cost converted to ONE COMMON UNIT — total monthly cost per 10 million VND borrowed — so a borrower can compare using a single figure.

Why every figure here is per 10 million, per month

This is the largest difference between this page and a flyer. A shop advertises 1.5% monthly interest, then after signing come the appraisal fee, the asset management fee, the storage fee — and the borrower only sees the real number on redemption day. So vServe requires every provider in this industry to state the TOTAL MONTHLY COST PER 10 MILLION VND BORROWED, interest and all fees included, not itemised away. One figure, one unit, directly comparable between shops. This is not paperwork: it is the only thing that turns a list of shops into a table you can actually compare.

The statutory interest ceiling in Vietnam

Article 468 of the 2015 Civil Code caps interest on asset lending at 20% per year, and that ceiling applies to every form of asset lending, pawn included. Converted: on a 10 million VND loan, the interest portion tops out at roughly 166,000 VND per month. Decree 144/2021 sets fines of 10 to 20 million VND for pawn or secured lending businesses that exceed it. Every cost range shown on this page sits inside that ceiling — which also gives a borrower a reference point to check any figure quoted to them anywhere, including off the platform.

What to check before signing a pawn contract

Four things should be on paper before signing, and a reputable shop will write all four. First, the REDEMPTION DATE in writing, not agreed verbally. Second, the TOTAL PAYABLE on redeeming on time, and the total if the term is extended by one period — both calculated in advance. Third, a CONDITION REPORT of the asset with photographs, made on the spot, so there is something to compare against on return; for electronics, the serial number written into the contract itself. Fourth, the shop's SECURITY AND ORDER LICENCE under Decree 96/2016, which is a condition of operating in this industry — asking to see it is the borrower's right.

What vServe does and does not do here

vServe is a connector. The platform does not lend, does not hold assets, does not guarantee any loan, and is not a party to the contract between the two sides. Its job is to bring shops onto one table and require every quote in the same unit, so a borrower can compare. It verifies business identity through tax code and business registration, displays a verification tier on each profile, and records documents providers declare themselves — but it does not assess licences and does not rank by advertising spend. The contract is between the borrower and the shop; reading it carefully before signing remains the borrower's own step.

Frequently asked questions

Why are prices here quoted per 10 million VND per month?

So that they can be compared. Shops usually quote interest monthly or daily and then add appraisal, asset management and storage fees — each in its own way, so two figures side by side say nothing. vServe requires every provider in this industry to convert to one unit: total monthly cost per 10 million VND borrowed, interest and all fees included. One figure, one unit, comparable at a glance.

What is the legal interest ceiling in Vietnam?

Article 468 of the 2015 Civil Code caps interest on asset lending at 20% per year, and that includes pawn lending. On a 10 million VND loan, the interest portion tops out at roughly 166,000 VND per month. Decree 144/2021 sets fines of 10 to 20 million VND for pawn or secured lending that exceeds it. The figure is worth remembering because it applies anywhere, including at a shop you find outside the platform.

What should be checked before signing a pawn contract?

Four things belong on paper: the redemption date in writing; the total payable on redeeming on time and on extending by one further period, both calculated in advance; a condition report with photographs made on the spot, with the serial number written in for electronics; and the shop's security and order licence under Decree 96/2016. A reputable shop will put all four in writing, so asking costs nothing.

Does vServe lend money or guarantee loans?

No. vServe connects: it does not lend, does not hold assets, does not guarantee anything and is not a party to the contract. Its role is to bring shops onto one table and require quotes in the same unit so borrowers can compare. It verifies business identity through tax code and business registration and shows a verification tier, but does not assess licences and does not rank by advertising spend.

Are there services here that are not pawn lending?

Yes. Alongside pawn services, this page covers advisory work on secured and unsecured bank loan files, independent asset valuation before negotiating, personal debt restructuring, and handling an overdue loan. These carry a service fee per case rather than loan interest, so their price unit differs.

What is an independent valuation for?

To negotiate from a figure with a basis behind it. When only the shop values the asset, the borrower has nothing to compare against and usually accepts the first number offered. An independent valuation certificate states the market value at that time, carries a signature and seal, can be used with several shops at once, and can be reused later.

Are the cost ranges on this page final?

No. They are reference ranges carrying a not-yet-confirmed label, meant for estimating before requesting quotes. The real figure comes from each shop after inspecting the asset, since it depends on asset type and condition, loan size, term and expected renewals. That is why every service here runs through a quote request rather than instant booking.
