Local banking essentials

What to check before opening an account in Hong Kong

Regulation

Banks must be licensed by the HKMA under the Banking Ordinance, while wallets and stored-value operators need a Stored Value Facility (SVF) licence. Check the HKMA's public register of licensed banks and SVF licensees before holding funds with a provider.

Local account details

Hong Kong has no domestic IBAN: accounts are addressed with the 3-digit bank code plus the branch code and the bank-specific account number, and international wires additionally need the bank's SWIFT/BIC.

Local currency: HKD (Hong Kong dollar)

Payments and transfers

The HKMA-operated Faster Payment System (FPS) moves HKD and RMB instantly 24/7 between banks and e-wallets using mobile numbers or email aliases, while high-value payments settle through CHATS, the real-time gross settlement system; AlipayHK, WeChat Pay HK and PayMe are the dominant wallets.
