The formula
How to convert HKD to CNY
To convert Hong Kong Dollars to Chinese Yuan, multiply the amount by the current exchange rate. On 18 August 2026 that rate is 0.859287, so:
CNY = HKD × 0.859287
The inverse holds too: 1.1638 Hong Kong Dollars per Chinese Yuan. 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 Hong Kong Dollar and the Chinese Yuan
The Hong Kong Dollar (HKD, symbol HK$) is the currency of Hong Kong. The Chinese Yuan (CNY, symbol ¥) is the currency of China.
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 HKD to CNY examples
A price tag. Something marked HK$50 comes to 42.9643 CNY. Round to 43 CNY for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. HK$3,000 a month is 2577.86 CNY — 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 ¥1,000 and want to know what it buys in Hong Kong Dollars, that is 1163.76 HKD. The converter handles both directions — use the swap button between the two fields.
Watch the margin. At a bureau charging 3%, your HK$500 would fetch roughly 416.75 CNY instead of 429.64 CNY. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.
The HKD/CNY rate stands at 0.859287 on 18 August 2026. It is refreshed every morning, so this page never quotes a figure older than a day.
That works out at 85.928661 CNY for 100 HKD. Type a different figure into the converter to see it change as you go.
No. This is the mid-market reference rate — the midpoint between what buyers and sellers are quoting. Banks, card issuers and bureaus add a margin, so expect somewhat less than shown. Use it as a benchmark to judge whether an offer is fair.
