US Dollar to Hong Kong Dollar (USD/HKD)
This page converts the US Dollar (USD) used in the United States into the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) used in Hong Kong. The current rate loads in your browser; type any amount into the converter above to see its value.
What moves the USD/HKD rate
The US Dollar is mainly influenced by US Federal Reserve interest rate decisions, US inflation and jobs data, and the dollar's role as the main global reserve and trade currency. The Hong Kong Dollar is mainly influenced by the Linked Exchange Rate System, which keeps the Hong Kong dollar between 7.75 and 7.85 per US dollar. When these forces push the two currencies in different directions, the USD/HKD rate moves; when they move together, the rate tends to stay steadier.
How this rate is calculated
Rates are fetched from Frankfurter, which publishes the European Central Bank's daily reference rates (updated once per working day), and from ExchangeRate-API for currencies the ECB does not cover. All rates are stored against the euro, so the USD/HKD figure is a cross rate: the euro value of HKD divided by the euro value of USD. These are indicative mid-market reference rates and may differ from the rates offered by banks, card issuers and payment providers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert USD to HKD?
Enter an amount in US Dollar and the converter multiplies it by the latest daily USD/HKD reference rate to show the value in Hong Kong Dollar. To go the other way, HKD to USD, divide by the same rate or use the swap button.
Where does the USD to HKD rate come from?
Rates come from Frankfurter, which republishes daily European Central Bank reference rates, with ExchangeRate-API filling in currencies the ECB does not publish. They are cached in your browser for up to an hour.
Is this the USD to HKD rate my bank will give me?
No. These are mid-market, indicative rates. Banks, card providers and transfer services usually add a margin or fee, so the Hong Kong Dollar you actually receive is typically a little lower.
