The formula
How to convert CNY to HKD
The maths behind a CNY to HKD conversion is straightforward: one multiplication, no rounding tricks. On 11 August 2026 that rate is 1.1631, so:
HKD = CNY × 1.1631
Going the other way, divide instead of multiply — or multiply by 0.859761, which is the same thing: one Hong Kong Dollar buys 0.859761 Chinese Yuan.
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 Hong Kong Dollar
The Chinese Yuan (CNY, symbol ¥) is the currency of China. The Hong Kong Dollar (HKD, symbol HK$) is the currency of Hong Kong.
Like any currency pair, the rate reflects what traders are willing to pay at that moment, not a fixed value. The figures here are mid-market reference rates pulled from a public daily feed; they are the rate you will see quoted in the news, not the rate a retail exchange will hand you over the counter.
Worked CNY to HKD examples
A price tag. Something marked ¥50 comes to 58.1557 HKD. Round to 58 HKD for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. ¥3,000 a month is 3489.34 HKD — 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 HK$1,000 and want to know what it buys in Chinese Yuan, that is 859.76 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 564.11 HKD instead of 581.56 HKD. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.

No. This is the mid-market reference rate — the midpoint between what buyers and sellers are quoting. Banks, card issuers and exchange bureaus add a margin on top, so expect to receive somewhat less than the figure shown here. Use it as a benchmark to judge whether an offer is fair.
