Convert HKD to USD — Live Exchange Rate

How to convert HKD to USD

To convert HKD to USD, multiply the amount in Hong Kong dollars by the exchange rate. To go from USD back to HKD, divide by the same rate.

At today's rate, 500 HKD × 0.1274 = 63.71 USD. In the other direction, 1 USD is worth about 7.8481 HKD.

If a bank or transfer service applies a 2% margin, the same 500 HKD would get you about 62.44 USD — 1.27 USD less than the mid-market figure. That is why the rate you are quoted is worth checking against the one on this page.

About converting Hong Kong Dollar to US Dollar

Hong Kong dollar to US dollar is a near-fixed rate: the HKD is pegged to the USD within a tight band under a currency-board system, so the figure hardly moves. It still matters for exact settlement and for anyone converting Hong Kong savings or salaries into dollars.

The figures here use the mid-market rate — the rate banks use between themselves. When you actually exchange Hong Kong Dollar for US Dollar, your provider adds a margin and may charge a fee, so the amount you receive is usually slightly below the headline rate. Comparing the all-in cost across providers, rather than the advertised rate alone, is the simplest way to keep more of your money.

Method & sources

Rates come from the Frankfurter API, which republishes the euro foreign-exchange reference rates set by the European Central Bank once per working day (around 16:00 CET). Our server caches them for up to one hour, and cross rates such as USD to INR are derived from the two euro rates. No rates are published at weekends or on ECB holidays, so the latest working-day rate is shown.

These are mid-market reference rates. Banks, card networks, transfer services and airport kiosks add a spread or fee on top — commonly 1–3% for cards and more for cash — so the amount you actually receive will usually be lower than the figure shown here.
