Send Flowers to Mom in Vietnam from Sweden: Steps & Time Zones

By the Vietnam Flower Delivery team · 2026-11-06

To send flowers to your mum in Vietnam from Sweden, contact Vietnam Flower Delivery by Hoa Lang Thang on WhatsApp with her Vietnamese address and phone number, payment by international card or bank transfer, and we confirm the real bouquet photo before same-day or next-day delivery in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City. The whole order-to-delivery cycle takes 5–10 days from Sweden due to payment clearing and our preparation time. We do not deliver outside those two cities. Swedish daylight saving time runs March–October; Vietnam has no daylight saving, so the time gap is 6 or 7 hours—place your order in Swedish morning to reach our team on the same Vietnam day. Include her full name, exact street address (number, ward, district), and 10-digit mobile number starting with 0. Ask us for a quote on WhatsApp based on design choice and delivery location. Avoid vague addresses (no "city centre" or neighbourhood names alone) and confirm her phone number twice to prevent failed delivery attempts.

Why Sweden–Vietnam flower delivery takes patience (not speed)

Sending flowers across continents is not instant like local delivery. From Sweden, your order must clear payment, reach our florist team during Vietnam business hours, source fresh flowers, and be assembled and photographed—only then delivered same-day or next-day to your mum. Payment by international bank transfer can add 2–3 business days; card payments clear faster. We send a real photo of the finished bouquet to your WhatsApp before the driver leaves our shop, so you know exactly what your mum receives. This honest workflow means your order lands 5–10 days after you contact us, not hours.

How time zones affect your order timing (Sweden → Vietnam)

Sweden is 6 hours behind Vietnam from October–March (CET), and 7 hours behind from March–October (CEST). If you message us on WhatsApp at 10:00 a.m. Swedish time in summer, it is already 5:00 p.m. in Vietnam—likely too late for same-day delivery. Order before 9:00 a.m. CEST (2:00 p.m. Vietnam time) to give us the afternoon to arrange flowers, or message in the Swedish evening (after 6:00 p.m. CEST) for next-day delivery in Vietnam. Our team responds during Vietnam business hours: 8:00 a.m.–6:00 p.m. Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City time, six days a week. Write your order clearly in English; include the day you want delivery and your mum's exact location (Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City district).

Vietnamese addresses and phone numbers: what not to get wrong

Your mum's address must include her house or building number, street name, ward name, district, and city (either "Hanoi" or "Ho Chi Minh City"). Many Swedish addresses use postal codes; Vietnam uses ward and district names instead. Ask your mum or a family member to write it in Vietnamese, then send us a photo or copy-paste the text. Her phone number must be 10 digits starting with 0 (for example, 0912 345 678). When you provide it, double-check by reading it aloud: mistyped numbers are the top reason our drivers cannot contact the recipient. If she has two phone numbers, give us both. We confirm the address and phone number with you before we buy flowers—if something is unclear, we ask before we proceed.

How sending from abroad works

Choosing the right bouquet for your Swedish mum in Vietnam

Bouquet type | Who it suits | Why it works ---|---|--- Local fresh flowers (roses, sunflowers, carnations) | Mums who love traditional elegance | Abundant in Vietnam, longest vase life, affordable, culturally familiar Imported premium mix | Mums who appreciate rarity (tulips, lisianthus, spray roses) | Shows extra thought; available year-round via our network; asks us for a quote Seasonal Vietnamese blooms | Mums who value what's fresh that week | Florist's choice; best quality; supports local growers; uniquely Vietnamese gift Wrapped hand-tied bouquet | Mums who want ready-to-display beauty | No vase needed; photograph-worthy; arrives in tissue paper, can stand in water Mixed with greenery and filler | Mums who prefer lush, full arrangements | Adds texture; lasts 7–10 days; works in any room; professional appearance

Ask us to describe what's in season when you order. We source from our Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City markets each morning, so availability changes daily. If you want imported varieties (like certain roses or tulips), mention it in your WhatsApp message and ask us for a quote. We can also add a handwritten card message in Vietnamese if you give us the English text; we translate and hand-write it in calligraphy style. Explore our Mother's Day collection and designs.

Customizing your order: card messages, delivery time, and add-ons

When you order on WhatsApp, tell us:

  • Delivery date: "Saturday afternoon" or "next Monday, after 5 p.m." (we deliver 8:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m. Vietnam time).
  • Card message: Write in English; we translate and hand-write it in Vietnamese in a card included with the bouquet. Keep it short (under 30 words) so it fits neatly.
  • Special requests: "No thorns (her allergies)", "add carnations, she loves pink", "early morning delivery only"—we do our best within what's available that day.
  • Your mum's name, phone, and full address: Exact spelling and digits.

We do not add soft toys, chocolate, or balloons (our shops stock flowers only), but we can recommend where to find flowers with gifts in Vietnam if you want a combo. Payment is by international card (Visa, Mastercard) or bank transfer; we send you a WhatsApp link to our secure payment page, or you transfer the quote amount to our bank account and we confirm receipt. Ask us for a quote on WhatsApp—it depends on design, size, and delivery zone within the city.

What to check before you finalize the order

Pre-order checklist:

  • [ ] Your mum's full Vietnamese address written exactly as she lives there, with ward and district names.
  • [ ] Her 10-digit phone number, checked twice (starts with 0; format: 0XXX XXX XXX).
  • [ ] Preferred delivery date and time window (Vietnam time, allowing for time-zone mismatch from Sweden).
  • [ ] Card message in English (max 30 words); we translate to Vietnamese.
  • [ ] Payment method: card or bank transfer (ask us for a quote first).
  • [ ] Flower type: local or imported (we'll tell you what's in stock that day).

Ask yourself: Does my mum prefer fragrant flowers (roses, lilies) or non-fragrant (carnations, sunflowers)? Does she have allergies (pollen, certain stems)? Is her vase at home, or should we suggest a tall design that stands in water without a vase? If she's elderly or has mobility limits, mention it—we can ask her to confirm delivery and leave it in a safe spot. Once we send the bouquet photo on WhatsApp, inspect it carefully: if anything looks wrong, we remake it free of charge before the driver departs.

Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City: which shop serves your mum?

Your mum lives in either Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City; we have shops in both. Tell us her district when you order, and we'll confirm which of our florists is nearest. Hanoi flower delivery covers central districts (Hoan Kiem, Ba Dinh, Dong Da, Hai Ba Trung) and outer wards; we serve the whole city. Ho Chi Minh City delivery includes Districts 1–12 and Thu Duc City. If her address is in a remote ward or outlying area, we'll let you know if same-day delivery is possible or if next-day is safer. Urban delivery is fast; suburban delivery may take longer but we confirm before we promise.

Why this matters for Mother's Day, March 8, or any special day

If you're sending flowers for Mother's Day (second Sunday in May in Sweden, no set date in Vietnam but widely celebrated early May), International Women's Day on March 8, or her birthday, order at least one week early. These dates see high demand; our shops stock extra flowers but quantities fill up. Avoid ordering on the day itself unless you're okay with a smaller design or a slight delay. For her birthday, include her age or a personal note ("From your daughter in Stockholm") so the card feels genuine. We can add a Vietnamese greeting if you ask—for example, "Sinh Nhật Vui Vẻ" (Happy Birthday) or "Tình Yêu Thương Từ Con" (Love from your child).

FAQ

How do I know the flowers arrived safely and my mum liked them?

We send you a photo of the finished bouquet on WhatsApp before delivery. Our driver calls your mum's phone number when arriving and takes a photo of her receiving the flowers, which we forward to you. She can also message or call you directly once she opens the door.

What if my mum's phone number is wrong or she does not answer the driver?

Our driver tries the number three times over 30 minutes. If no answer, the driver waits or comes back the next day. We contact you immediately on WhatsApp so you can call your mum or give us an alternate number. Provide two phone numbers if possible to avoid this problem.

Can I include a card message in Swedish or just English?

We translate English messages to Vietnamese for free and hand-write them in the card. If you want Swedish text, your mum would not understand it in Vietnam; we recommend English or Vietnamese instead. Keep it short (under 30 words) for neatness.

How long do the flowers last in a vase?

Local fresh flowers (roses, carnations, sunflowers) last 7–10 days in clean water with flower food. Imported varieties sometimes last longer. We include care tips in a printed card with every bouquet. Ask your mum to change the water every two days and trim the stems at an angle.

Can I pay by bank transfer from my Swedish bank account?

Yes. We accept international bank transfers to our Vietnam bank account. Ask us for the account details on WhatsApp. Transfer may take 2–3 business days to clear, so order early if you need delivery on a specific date.

What if I want to add a gift (chocolates, a plant, a teddy bear)?

We sell flowers only. However, we can guide you to local gift and flower combinations available in Vietnam if you want a fuller present. Alternatively, arrange a separate gift from a Vietnam-based online retailer and mention the timing to us so your mum receives both on the same day.
