HSBC Hong Kong is one of Hong Kong's note-issuing banks and the territory's largest bank, serving as a major gateway for HKD and offshore CNH payments.
When sending a SWIFT international wire to HSBC Hong Kong, include the BIC HSBCHKHH in the "SWIFT/BIC code" or "Bank identifier code" field of your sending bank's wire transfer form.
The 8-character BIC HSBCHKHH identifies HSBC Hong Kong's head office. If you are sending to a specific branch, the bank may provide an 11-character BIC with a 3-character branch suffix (e.g. HSBCHKHHXXX).
Once your bank sends the wire, your payment gets a 36-character UETR tracking code. Paste it into Ohmyfin's free tracker to see the live SWIFT GPI status — no bank login needed.
