Is today's HKD/TRY rate good or bad?
The Hong Kong Dollar to Turkish Lira mid-market rate shown above is the reference price before any provider adds fees or markup. It is not a guaranteed quote - your bank, card issuer, or transfer service will offer a different rate that includes their margin.
On a typical conversion, banks add 0.5-1.5% to this rate. The gap between the mid-market rate and what you actually receive is the real cost of converting - often larger than any flat fee. Because HKD/TRY is a pegged or near-pegged rate, the bank's exchange rate risk is minimal - but they still charge for the service. Focus on fees rather than timing.

Visiting Turkey? TRY has depreciated significantly in recent years, so your purchasing power may be higher than you expect. PTT (post offices) and bank branches tend to offer better rates than standalone bureaux.

Frequently asked questions
Is it better to use a card or withdraw cash for Turkish Lira?
For most travelers, a card with no foreign transaction fee is the simplest and cheapest option - provided you always choose to pay in Turkish Lira (the local currency) rather than Hong Kong Dollar. Choosing your home currency triggers Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), which typically adds 3-5% on top. If you need cash, withdraw from ATMs in-country rather than exchanging at airports.
Why does HKD/TRY barely move?
The Hong Kong Dollar is pegged to the US Dollar within a narrow band of 7.75-7.85, maintained by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority since 1983. This linked exchange rate system means USD/HKD moves very little compared to free-floating pairs. For other currencies against HKD, the peg means the rate closely mirrors the USD rate.
Why is HKD/TRY so volatile?
Turkey has experienced high inflation and unconventional monetary policy in recent years, creating larger-than-typical rate swings. Central Bank of Turkey interest rate decisions, inflation data, and geopolitical developments are the primary drivers. TRY has depreciated significantly, which means small percentage moves translate to large absolute changes.

How this rate is calculated
We prefer a direct rate from our primary data source when one is available. If a direct quote is unavailable, we compute a cross-rate through a major intermediary currency (usually USD or EUR). When a rate is derived rather than directly quoted, we label it on the page. Full methodology.
