The formula
How to convert CNY to SGD
Turning Chinese Yuan into Singapore Dollars needs nothing more than today's rate and a multiplication. On 18 August 2026 that rate is 0.189423, so:
SGD = CNY × 0.189423
The inverse holds too: 5.2792 Chinese Yuan per Singapore Dollar. Divide where you multiplied before.
The converter at the top of this page does both directions and updates as you type. Every result is recalculated on the server as well, so the number you see is the number that gets stored.
About the Chinese Yuan and the Singapore Dollar
The Chinese Yuan (CNY, symbol ¥) is the currency of China. The Singapore Dollar (SGD, symbol S$) is the currency of Singapore.
Rates between these two shift with interest-rate decisions, trade figures and general market mood. What you see is the market midpoint, updated once a day. A bank or bureau will quote something a little worse.
Worked CNY to SGD examples
A price tag. Something marked ¥50 comes to 9.4712 SGD. Round to 9 SGD for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. ¥3,000 a month is 568.27 SGD — useful when you are comparing a job offer across the two markets. Bear in mind the rate moves, so a figure agreed today will not be the figure paid out in six months.
Going the other way. If you are holding S$1,000 and want to know what it buys in Chinese Yuan, that is 5279.18 CNY. The converter handles both directions — use the swap button between the two fields.
Watch the margin. At a bureau charging 3%, your ¥500 would fetch roughly 91.8704 SGD instead of 94.7117 SGD. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.
As of 18 August 2026, 0.189423 Singapore Dollars buys what one Chinese Yuan does. That figure is pulled from a public reference feed once a day.
That works out at 18.942341 SGD for 100 CNY. Type a different figure into the converter to see it change as you go.
Almost certainly not. What you see here is the mid-market rate, the midpoint of the market. Every retail provider takes a cut on top of it. The value of knowing the mid-market figure is being able to measure that cut.
