Track CNH (Chinese Yuan (Offshore)) International Payments

Details
CNH is freely deliverable offshore Yuan, settled via Hong Kong CHATS. Faster and more flexible than onshore CNY.
Typical processing time: Same day or T+1 via Hong Kong clearing.
On a SWIFT MT103, the CNH amount appears in field 32A together with the value date. The currency code is part of the ISO 4217 standard, so "CNH" means the same thing in every bank in the world.
If your CNH payment is missing or stuck, the most common reasons are correspondent-bank cut-off times, sanctions screening on the beneficiary or originator, or a missing field on the MT103 (purpose-of-payment, beneficiary address). Ohmyfin shows you exactly where the payment is in the chain.
